It is a very good book, one of those that you need to read slowly and pray often about the things that you long for instead of God. "Give me this or I'll die!", "I would be happy if just this happened", "if I just could..., then..." What would be the thing for you, that your heart really loves? or longs for?.. until that desire becomes towards God, and truly we can say God is enough. With You and You alone I am happy. It is better one day in Your courts than thousands elsewhere... it is then, that we'll be truly happy. A happiness not depending on circumstances or monthly hormones or the vanities of this world, but in God alone!

I was chatting with my boys about that the other day. We've been working through the Old Testament (Catherine Vos edition of the Bible Story Book)and talking about the Israelites and how they would so often turn away from God and worship idols. The boys were getting frustrated with the Israelites..:-) I warned them that we too have idols...maybe not statues but so many other things that keep us from focusing on God or we have our list of wants & don't wants...How often are were more like the Israelites that we want to admit...
Do you Know if there is an spanish edition? or a PDF docummnet of it.
I really need to read that book!
Have a nice weekend
