I read Lisa Whittle’s book, I Want God, during a weeklong trip at the beach. The entire week before we left, the book called to me as it sat on my dresser ready to be packed inside my suitcase. I couldn’t wait to read it. However, I knew there was going to be a lot to digest, and I wanted to be in a place where I could read a little bit at a time and then reflect on it.
Lisa’s words did not disappoint.
Most of us have come to the realization that we need God, but wanting Him is entirely different. I’m glad to have the opportunity to share it with you because those typed out letters on each page form more than just words. They connect us to the passion of a woman who truly wants God and needs to communicate that message to her readers. It’s a soul awakening.
Many of you told me why you want God, so I thought I would let you know why I want Him.
I want God because He paid a high price for my life and knows me by name.
I want God because of His faithfulness to love me despite my flaws.
I want God because He sees the best in me when I see the worst.
I want God because He’s God, and that’s enough for me.
The winner of the book is Amy! I will be contacting you soon, Amy!
Have a wonderful weekend!
I’ll meet you back here on Monday.
Love,
Jennifer
