Have you tried harder to have a consistent time with the Lord--but failed? Does your mind wander during prayer, and do you run out of things to say? Do you question why it is so hard to fellowship with the Lord? Stop feeling like a failure at daily devotions and start walking every day with the Lord who loves you. Gene Edwards faced these same questions and struggles. And he found a better way to walk with the Lord than merely trying harder to pray and read the Bible. In Living Close to God (When You're Not Good at It) you will discover that loving God means much more than doing your best to serve Him. You will find ways to start your day with Christ, beginning with your first conscious thought in the morning. You will learn how to fellowship with Him during even the most demanding days. And when you go to the Scriptures, you will talk with Him in a two-way conversation--just as His first followers did. Includes a small-group discussion guide and a guide for your own relationship with God.
Gene Edwards has written a lot of books. He has also been responsible for seeing several classics on knowing our Lord deeply and intimately updated and reprinted. Of all those books this one may be the most valuable for Believers that find it difficult to live close to Jesus in a dynamic and real way. This book is for those who desire fellowship with God but are the lacking practical means to maintain that relationship. God is always present to us and we ignore Him for the “buzzing of a fly” or whatever. For those caught up in their own thinking and daydreaming this book will help you to lay aside the guilt and and shame of repeated failure and gently return to your Lord over and over again. Many will miss the importance of this book because they are looking for something other than the Lord himself. He is the thrilling, spectacular Center of the Universe and the center and source of all we truly are and shall be. This book may be one of the most important written in the last 100 years on the subject of relationship with The Anointed One our Messiah Jesus. Do not miss Him any longer. Check out this book and begin to put the recommendations into daily practice.
