Great books to read!

Two new books I'd recommend. The first is from Og Mandino called The Greatest Miracle in the World. The book includes a chapter called "The God Memorandum", a memo from God. Here's a snippet, "Take counsel. I hear your cry. It passes through the darkness, filters through the clouds, mingles with starlight, and finds it's way to my heart on the path of a sunbeam. I have anguished over the cry of a hare choked in the noose of a snare, a sparrow tumbled from the nest of its mother, a child thrashing helplessly in a pond, and a Son shedding His blood on a cross. Know that I hear you, also. Be at peace."

I also recommend "How to Listen to God" by Charles Stanley. This particular book tells how God communicates with us through His Word, and teaches us how to listen to God, and know when He is trying to get our attention. It's clear that God has used the challenges in my life to get my attention, and to lean on Him and trust Him for guidance and assistance.

Check these out and let me know what you think!
