God is love. He often reveals himself in special ways to show his love to us. A friend once said that this life is a big classroom. God has us in the classroom to learn the lessons. He is the teacher and uses the obstacles as the means for us to learn of his love, his discipline, and his sovereignty. Through learning, we draw closer to God. However, there are so many circumstances in the world that cause people not to feel or sense his presence. Because I understand how you feel, I decided to invite you on a journey to see how he has been revealing himself through the obstacles of this life to cause me to grow in him. The purpose of My Heart Longs for the Lord is to reach out to people from all walks of life. I pray that this book can be inspiring and encouraging to many in their walk with God and enhance their personal relationship with him.
