Book Spotlight: The Power of Positive Thinking

I picked up a book Sunday night in Barnes & Noble having heard about it before in another book that I've been reading. Its called The Power of Positive Thinking by Norman Vincent Peale. I have not been able to put this book down!

On first glance it seems like a self-help book but its way deeper than that. I would describe it as a book that is helping me get closer to God. Really! God promises are all through this book and even though I am only at chapter 5 I am more encouraged and feel more at peace than I have in years. I know it is no accident that I was able to have this opportunity. I am so in love with God promises that I find myself diving into the Bible in search of more peace and comfort.

I really can't describe how elated I feel and I know everyone may not feel the same when reading this same book. God reaches and speaks to people in different ways and I honestly believe He is reminding me of who is right now. All I want to do is shout and praise Him right now. I just finished reading Psalms 27. Read it and maybe you'll understand.


Sidebar: This book was written in the 1950's but it is timeless. God's promises were the same then, now and forever.
