This is a Christian classic that is very meaty -- a great read if you want to go deeper.

God's plan for His creation is far beyond what the vast majority of us can begin to comprehend. When He made man, He had great plans for those who would accept His love for them. God's love for us is great enough to give up His own Son to pay for all of our sins as well as take on all o four infirmities and hurts.
As each person seeks God with a hunger for righteousness, the sky is the limit. Abraham shows us just how far we can go. Jesus again show us how much can be done in and through every person that will yield up their lives to this incredibly love Creator.
He loved enough to give us His very most loved Son for us. Once our eyes are opened enough to see and receive this love, the things of the world are seen for the transitory nature that they truly are. And our hearts cry out for more of Him and His eternal love. It is at this point that it is time to read this book. It is a portal into a understanding that makes giving ourselves fully to Him to be in a depth of fellowship with Him that we should hear His voice, experience this phenomenal love and even have our hearts beat in unison with His.
Being with Him at most levels eclipses all that is offered by the world, and allows us the ability to quietly grow to a point of being able to operate in the "now" in the heavenly realm at the same level as Jesus did, and promised that we could indeed do all that He did and even more.
this book is the key that helps us open the door to this eternal Kingdom that yields an eternal relationship with the Godhead that can deeply transform us as well as many others who will then be able to see the fruit of a life lived at this depth.
Truly our kernel of corn will have dropped into the ground to die and life beyond our comprehension emerges as a result. While it will take awhile for most of us to reach the point that we can absorb the implications of this book, it is worth having it in our home for the day that the hunger for more of Him and His love will tug at our hearts to at last give up all to be in fellowship with Him in our entirety. He still lives and will reign eternally as a result of giving His life on the cross. We are called to do the same and deeply walk with Him that the Father might do so many similar things through our lives. Our life will prove to be such a very little thing to give for all that we will receive.
