The title says it all! We go through life fretting because we are not okay in so many areas; like something is badly wrong with us. Instead of turning to the Lord, we try to stuff our perceived failures and limitations under the rug, which only stresses us more. Media, magazines, books everything around us shouts that we can and should reach some sort of perfection. This lie has become so ingrained in us we are blinded and view it as âtruthâ. Ms. Walsh's book blasts fib to pieces with the real truth.
I found the book to be comforting, inspirational, and helpful. The author's openness and honesty were a blessing. I could relate to her frustrations, depression and struggles. I wasn't happy she had them but it was nice to know I wasn't the only one. Someone else was facing the same thing plus sharing their insights to overcome. Also it was a reality check that even the most successful and spiritual people face the same conflicts.
We can't be perfect in any area because we aren't; only Christ is, and we live in an imperfect world. No wonder it all seems so impossible! God is always there to help, heal, love, pick us upâ¦everything. Trying to fix ourselves is doing it in our own strength and we don't have that kind of power, only God does. She reminded my past doesn't irreparably break me nor does my present defeat me! The 8 steps she shares to move forward so simple and clear! We have to get our focus off of circumstances and self, plus trying to make our world âjustâ right and focus on the One that can! An outstanding book!
I received this book from Baker Books in exchange for an honest review. The opinions I have stated are my own.
