Very calming

I was travelling by bus and I knew it will take 8 hours to reach my destination. I hated the fact that I am wasting time like that. I had this book with me because I bought it for a friend as a birthday present. I started to read it and within 20 minutes I began to enjoy the trip. I felt I could really appreciate even those moments spent on the way to somewhere else. This is not a book that you should buy and read in one sitting - not even within a couple of days. You should keep it by your side and read couple of pages every time you feel anxious, in a rush or doing anything that you don't enjoy doing.

Enjoying Where You Are

This is a wonderful book, and I can think of several people I know who could probably benefit from reading it. Its basic message is about not saying to yourself that you'll be happy when such and such thing happens. You can be happy NOW. Wonderful wonderful book that is MUCH needed in this day and age.

Scripturally Solid

This book is about attitude. It's about how to maintain the proper attitude to enjoy the abundant life Jesus gives. Yes, it is a learned process because life has challenges. In fact, the opening chapter describes life as a process. Waiting is inevitable. In the process we will always be headed someplace else. That's where the title of the book comes into play.We're reminded that as God created different elements, He enjoyed what He had done, saying it is good. In similar manner, she encourages us to enjoy our work. "Relish the moment," is the advice she offers in reflecting on Psalm 118:24, "This is the day which the Lord hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it."She hits an excellent mark in targeting communicating with God in the mundane tasks, noting, ""Secular things can become sacred things when the Lord is present." She says she believes ALL of life should be celebrated and enjoyed. It's all a mindset! Attitude! That is the kind of life Jesus came to give us. This book is powerful because it teaches you how to apply the truth of God's Word to your everyday world.

Life Changing

This book changed my life. I have read many of Joyce Meyer books but this book had the biggest effect on my life. In the book Joyce talks about enjoying the were you are at any moment in your life. She explains that we should enjoy what we have and the present stitution that we are in, and in order to get were we want to go we need to be comfortable with our current stitution. I advise everyone to read this book if you are unhappy with the current state of your life. This book will teach you how to embace what god has giving you at the present time.

Enjoying the Journey

I have read titles by Joyce Meyer.This is great.A must read for one who is looking & waiting for the unknown end of the trip & is NOT enjoying God's blessings along the way. If you don't have a lot of time to read but desperately need spiritual this book can be read a few pages at at time.
