Book Description

Publication Date: May 1, 2007

Deep in your soul lies something beyond all desires and motivations. It is your truest intent. Do you know what yours is at any moment in time? According to Rev. Deborah L. Johnson, this is the most important creative force you possess. In Your Deepest Intent, Rev. Deborah takes you on a guided journey navigating the peaks and valleys of internal discovery and external integration through a series of letters revealed to her by Spirit. "Your intent arrives at the door before you do," she teaches. "The energy is so strong that no matter how you try to hide or camouflage it, it will always shine, even in the dark." With Your Deepest Intent, readers will join Rev. Deborah to explore: - "Possibility consciousness": how to understand the limits of your perceptions, relinquish your expectations, and enter the flow of fulfillment - How to be at peace with the process of living--including all its complexities, nuances, and mysteries--to find the strength to take action and the fortitude to remain centered - What it really takes to break the illusion of "otherness," to integrate our spirituality into every aspect of life Rev. Deborah L. Johnson shares more than 45 messages as revealed to her by Spirit. Although these messages might "ruffle" your comfort zone, challenge you to look in a new direction, and alter some of your existing paradigms, they will inspire you to seek further communion with the Divine, and garner a better understanding of "your deepest intent." - Synopsis Rev. Deborah L. Johnson offers more than 45 "letters from the Divine" to open a deeper understanding of the power of intention and purpose.

5.0 out of 5 stars a joy and a blessing to read, July 2, 2007

I am always a bit suspicious of books that purport to be channeled from God, Jesus, or high spiritual begings from the Great Beyond. Your Deepest Intent isn't exactly such a book, yet its author, Rev. Deborah Johnson writes that her words "Come to me from Pure Spirit as a conversation in the form of letters." What impresses me about this book is not its seeming Source, it is the transformative power of its words. Your Deepest Intent inspires me to clarify and purify my own deepest intent.

This book includes so many catalysts for personal and planetary transformation, integrated into a cohesive whole, that all I can do here is give one a flavor of some of the topics covered. Here's a few: Intent moves desire into manifestation; Understand how to be a miracle, not just have one; Maintaining possibility consciousness is your primary responsibility; Opportunities to purify your heart are your answered prayers; You are not punished for your mistakes, you are punished by them; Look for Truth, not the lie you want to discredit; Act like you know what you know; True abundance is knowing that you are enough; You project your sins onto others, then sacrifice them; The people of America need to examine their deepest intent; Democracy is about empowering all, not winnning by simple majority, Come a little higher to see the whole picture.

Your Deepest Intent is not a spiritual comfort food book that fills one up (yet its premise is that we are always already in the arms of God, and peace comes through realizing and remaining faithful to this truth). This book is more like a fine wine that is best approached with care and sensitivity. It was a joy and a blessing to read this book.

I enjoyed reading this book and her first, which is the first volume of this series. I find the information interesting and certainly worthy of our focused attention. There were times when the information seemed to be directly for the author and I was not totally certain that it could be useful/applicapable to me or the reader, but upon further study I feel that it is possible to see how it "could" cross over. There seems to be a great number of individuals out there hearing the word of God and I appreciate all of the writers who take time to share it with us who wait for the direction, help, affirmations, truths, and wisdom it imparts. This does it beautifully. It is uplifting, hopeful, and right to the point.

If I were 20 I'd love it. This book feels like "Conversations With God" books but not nearly as good. I recommend Neale's first and third if you're a younger reader. There is truth in this book but it is through the filter of someone at an ethnocentric level of development. At times the writing is even condescending and preachy and moralizing. Sometimes she writes interesting tidbits like "awareness transcends intelligence", food for thought for readers of any social and spiritual level.
