This review is from: What Does God Want? (Paperback)
Ever been faced with a difficult or heart wrenching decision? Have you ever felt that God doesn't seem to be communicating His will to you even though you're trying as hard as you know how, to figure out what it is? This little book offers a process of discernment that is invaluable. The nine chapters offer guidance in the form of questions that you ask yourself and reflect on when you are in the process of making a decision. The text is enlivened by little anecdotes of real people who had to make decisions that sometimes, were not very clearcut. Using the steps in this book, I have been able to see how God has communicated with me throughout my life. It has increased my trust in His concern and love for me and my family. Following the steps in this book will help you be at peace with your decisions and will eliminate impulse as a factor in the choices you make. I highly recommend it.

This review is from: What Does God Want? (Paperback)
Decisions great and small started becoming grueling ordeals in my life, to the consternation of my friends, family, and hubby. It seemed I wanted God to be more of a factor in my decision-making processes, but wasn't sure how to do this beyond just praying repeatedly for wisdom. However, this book breaks down the decision-making process from a faith-based perspective and offers the wisdom of the author's experienced observations (he used to do spiritual direction) on how God communicates to us His will in our decision making through our feelings, signs, circumstances, prayer, etc. I've xeroxed the workbook-type exercises in here too and regularly run all of my major life decisions through them. Overall, I feel much more ready to make decisions than I ever have.
