This book was a little different than I'd imagined. Wonderful nonetheless. I will give you an idea with a few of my favorite passages. You can decide for yourself if it would be worth a read, I think it was totally worth it for me. Perfect for an Easter weekend read, or really an anytime read.
A good motto:
In essentials, unity;
In nonessentials, liberty’
In all things, charity.
-Melanchon
"Through the sweet whisperings of the Spirit, as a voice in our mind or a feeling in our heart, or by the counsel of a caring person who sees and understands our plight, the guidance will come. Comfort and reassurance will arrive, and we can find safety and love in His waiting arms.
The sustaining arms of the Lord will give us strength to endure what he chooses not to remove.
But you must reach beyond a sense of the infinity of the Atonement to accept the portion thereof intended for you and you alone. You have the privilege of His embrace. He is not on the cross. He is not in the tomb. He stands looking upon you, asking, “Whom seekest thou?” he whispers your name and waits for you to recognize Him. He wants you to feel His embrace."
