From the Back Cover

As a Christian woman, you yearn for intimacy with God. You long to know His presence, to be satisfied in heart and soul, but you don’t know how. You want to be obedient, but you need a higher motivation than simply choosing to do right.
Linda Dillow understands. And now in Satisfy My Thirsty Soul, she shares with you her lifelong discovery that both longings can be met—through worship.

True worship is both a specific act and a lifestyle. As you learn what it means to bow your knee (the act of worship), you’ll gain a renewed intimacy with God. And as you learn to bow your thoughts, words, work, attitudes, will, and even pain (the lifestyle of worship), you’ll be drawn into God’s holy and life-giving presence—the place where God will truly satisfy your thirsty soul.

Satisfy My Thirsty Soul overflows with honesty and practical guidance for entering into God's presence. It's an inspiring and refreshing read you'll probably want to digest slowly and let permeate deep within. The most enriching guide I've used this year.

The twelve week study included in the back is a great tool for personal study or working through with a friend. For those longing to know more of God, this author is a trustworthy companion who can show you the way.

This review is from: Satisfy My Thirsty Soul: For I Am Desperate for Your Presence (Paperback)

I really enjoyed this book. I found it to be very informative. It tells how to bow our thoughts, words, work, attitudes, will and even pain to God to gain a personal intimate relationship with Him. It teaches us of worship. I loved the personal stories and quotations that are also in the book. The 12 week bible study in the back is very thought provoking and a wonderful added tool to get our minds and hearts set to be drawn to God's holy and life giving presence. I am very glad that I bought this book and will recommend it to anyone who is looking for a deeper relationship with our wonderful creator.
