My review...
Osteen’s latest provides a reminder that it is
possible to focus on the positive, even in a difficult situation. Numerous
personal stories are included to punctuate Osteen’s points. Some of them may be
familiar if you listen to his sermons on TV or Sirius Radio or if you have
read some of his other books. However, they are stories that are beneficial to
hear more than once.
I have read numerous books by Osteen, and I have yet
to be disappointed. The books, along with his messages in general, always
contain nuggets of wisdom and truth that can be applied to circumstances in my
life, since they are very relatable. As with past books, I highlighted numerous
passages in this one, and it is a book I will refer back to when I need
encouragement and help with focusing on the positive. If that is what you are
looking for, I think you will enjoy this book.
Some of my favorite quotes:
- “Have a new perspective: the dark places are opportunities to grow.”
- “Do what you can, but trust God to do what you can’t.”
- “Faith is trusting God when life doesn’t make sense.”
- “When you’re in the middle, you need to remind yourself that this too shall pass. It’s temporary.”
- “If you’re waiting for all the details, you’ll be waiting your whole life.”
- “Be bold, be courageous, and step into the unknown.”
- “The only thing that can stop you is you.”
