Inspired

I started this book knowing I had a fairly new... but good relationship with Jesus. I wasn’t sure if it was possible to get any closer to him than I already was, but the idea felt like a nudge. Chapter after chapter, the author had multiple insights about cited scriptures, as well as several personal, spiritually uplifting stories that spoke to my heart and brought the Holy Spirit into my home. The author’s love and devotion to our Savior and His teachings were inspiring. When implementing her suggestions to enhance my own relationship with Him, I realized my relationship with him was deepening. I couldn’t stop! Chapter after chapter I felt as though my soul longed for more. By the time the last words were said… the Holy Spirit had filled my home so strongly that I felt the need to sit in silence. I was afraid to move or make a sound… I didn’t want anything to disturb the overwhelming feeling of love and peace. It felt as though Jesus had brought a multitude of God's angels with him. I could feel them surrounding me as if I had brought heaven into my home. I have no idea how long I sat in silence… just soaking it all in…with tears streaming down my face… when I realized…THIS… this is how much of Him I want all the time! In my mind, I know it will be hard to do in my crazy busy life, but from this experience, I know what I learned from this book will help me get there.

Peace and truth

Robin has a soothing, peaceful tune to her voice…it has been beautiful to hear her speak words of truth, light, and love. I keep thinking about the principles taught-how they can relate to any belief system someone holds dear. The scripture reference has been useful to study deeper. The application I have used so far from reading/listening (I have done both) is to make more time to listen to my heart, to trust my connection to Christ with the intentions of my heart.
This book is one I will refer back to for study, referral to others, and definitely makes a beautiful gift.

The light of Jesus Christ shines through this book.

I loved the combination of personal experiences, scriptural references and a new awareness of the impact of our hearts in our lives, especially in our relationship with Christ.
