Saved My Life

I came across this book in a hospital gift shop about eight years ago. I had recently gone through a terrible break up and experience betrayal. I was hurting and even tough I was a Christian, it shook my faith. This book helped me to heal and I have grown tremendously, because of it.

Most Uplifting

Christians, unite!!! We always knew Satan was out to get us, but this author explains exactly how. Don't feel bad, don't feel sad, pick up this book, and uplift yourself. I recommend it to be used along with your daily Bible study. We all need some strong words of edification, and this book provides plenty.

Hope for hurting times

This book is my second bible so to speak. I have read it at least 5 times. It gives me hope when I feel so worthless at times. It reasures me that I am free from sins grip even thought I don't usually feel that way. The most important point I got from this book is that God is always there to help me in the fight to do his will and that I need to trust in him and not in my own strength to overcome any temptation that I may encounter. Its a great uplifting book that will get you though many a trial along with your Bible of course.

This book is a God send for me...

I bought this book purely by accident. I bought it because I am having marriage problem. The very night that I got this book, I found out my wife is having an affair. Out of despration, I started to read the book, and it is getting me through the toughest time. Especially Chapter 12 - "God has not forgotten you", really gave me a new perspective on the power of Faith and Prayer. My problems are still there, but I am feeling so much better now that I know God is with me every step of the way.

This book hit to the heart of the reality of life

I purchased the book, for the simple fact that I did feel like giving up. I brought it home thumbed through it, then put it down; thinking to myself another book about God and I won't read it. Needless to say I began at page one, and went through the entire book. I could not believe the information that the author put in the pages hit home to the reality that God really loves you and is right there waiting to pick you back up now that your down. My recommendation, if you are distressed with life and feeling that God cannot love you because of sin in your life then this book is for you. Take Care.
