Reseña del libro "I Believe God: a 40-day adventure (en Inglés)"
We often talk about knowing God better and growing in a relationship with Him. Well, this is something to know about God-He's someone who likes to be believed. He is pleased by faith. You could say it even gives Him pleasure.God made this very clear to me in October of 2002.On October 3, 2002, I did something I'd never done before. Since I was turning 40 the next day, I asked God for a birthday present. As I prayed that morning, I had a sense that God was saying "yes" to my request.What did I expect to happen? Well, to be honest, we had some financial needs, so some help in that area would have been nice, but I didn't have anything specific in mind.Now I assumed that since I was turning 40 on the 4th that I would receive whatever God was going to give me on that day, but the 4th came and went and it didn't appear that I had received anything.Because I'd really been working at believing God, not my feelings or circumstances, I was determined to not doubt Him and give into discouragement. I would continue to believe He was going to come through somehow.About ten days later, I flew from Arkansas to New Jersey to visit my dad and step-mom. As I got into bed one night, I was debating with myself and with God. Had I really heard from God? And if I had, why wasn't He answering? I was disappointed and was doing my best to believe, but I was becoming discouraged.Then I fell asleep.About an hour later, I awoke from a terrible dream. I was being accused of murdering two people. Even though I was completely innocent, the circumstantial evidence pointed to my guilt.My first thought upon waking was, "Lord, what's that all about? It's a terrible feeling to not be believed."I did not hear an audible voice, but it would have been no more real if I had. It was as if God whispered in my ear, "That's how I feel when you don't believe Me."That was almost nine years ago. I wish I could say I've never doubted God since, but I have. I've learned though that believing God is a continual process of renewing my mind, of learning to think like He does.I've put together these 40 daily readings to help others in that process. Believing the truth and rejecting the lies we've believed for so long is the only path to growth.This 40-day journey will be an adventure that will uncover treasures reserved only for those who choose to seek and believe God.
