Book Cover & Preview Text
I want to start by saying that I am no expert in the matter of hearing God. This is a concept that I struggled with for a long time and I prayed for so long about as I longed to understand how someone actually heard God. What does God sound like? This is the story of how I finally learned to hear God, and how I found happiness even in the middle of some terrible storms. My story involves a great deal of heartbreak, as many stories do, which I will share with you in the coming chapters. I realize that everyone experiences heartbreak during the course of their lives, and there are many books that attempt to tell you how to cope with heartbreak and how to get to the other side of your grief. I've read a lot of them. There are also many books by Christian authors written as pseudo self-help books, which I've found extremely helpful in reflecting on my relationship with God and my own self-improvement. This book is a combination of both. This book is a narrative that explores my journey and experience hearing God. This book is me talking to you, a friend, sharing my story. I'm not trying to give you the answer to all of your problems, and I can't guarantee you that by reading this book you will hear God in your own life. Rather, I want to share my story and my experiences with the hope that something in my story might speak to you and that you might see a glimmer of hope in the heartbreak you have in your life. I also hope that what I am going to share in my story may cause you to think differently about hearing God, and that you may come away with some new tools in your tool belt to help you know what it means to hear God and help you better hear God. We all have challenges, struggles, and heartbreak in life. I want to share some of mine with you so that you will know that you are not alone. Even if and when you feel alone, know that you are never alone or abandoned by our Father, and that you can reach out to Him and He will speak to you in return. You can find comfort in the Father's love, even during the hardest periods of your life that seem like they are unbearable.
