Even with a virtual army of professionals and hundreds of volumes of Christian books carefully analyzing our emotional health, many of us still wrestle with deep, unresolved hurts, often still feeling overpowering needs to be loved, accepted and secure. Why? This book will teach you how to effectively apply what you believe to how you live. Here is a courageously articulated plan for bridging the application gap between intellectual belief and heartfelt conviction. Includes case studies of real people caught in conflict, lively anecdotes from the author's own experiences, and pertinent Scripture references. Get off the "perfectionist" treadmill & experience the feeling of being truly accepted. It will help you see how a proper understanding of just who God is, can lovingly transform all your relationships, and how to get rid of fear and anxiety about the future. This book is easily readable and clearly structured.

So many people live their lives hoping to or trying to be good enough for God or someone else in their life. Great news. This book reveals what the Scripture teaches us about the true nature of our relationship with God that frees up to serve and love Him and others because of a right relationship rather than to attain one. Once we have trusted Christ as Savior and He has forgiven our sins, we are free to live in our state of acceptance rather than trying to achieve. Acceptance by God comes as we received the payment that Christ made for our sins. Now that we know how God feels about us and where we stand with Him we can do and give freely and apart from fear or concern regarding our life status.

This book is the 1st of a trilogy including the sequel "His Image My Image" and the final installment "The Secret of Loving". Secure the other two volumes and find the freedom that comes with the security of a true relationship with God in Christ.
