"If you believe that God can
speak to you, and you have no doubts, then you will be able to hear
Him", writes author and visionary Katharine C. Giovanni. How to rid
yourself of such doubts and converse with God is the subject of her
provocative new book, God, is that You?.
Using real life examples
(including her own), Katharine leads the reader to an understanding
that, "God didn’t stop speaking to us thousands of years ago, and He
didn’t just talk to people such as the pope and Mother Teresa". You see,
many of us are educated from birth to believe that we are not worthy
enough to speak to Him. That’s called doubt and if you doubt your worth,
you won’t hear Him.
God, is that You?
teaches us two methods to "hear" God --meditation and writing. Katharine
tells us to empty our minds and focus on turning inside to our soul or
spirit. Ask, "God, are you there?". Then write down the first thoughts
that come to mind, no matter what they are. Or don’t write them down,
just listen and remember, whichever is best for you.
In addition to recording
God’s wisdom for us, Katharine also provides exercises on how to clear
your mind, relax and focus, how to remove doubt and how to go within and
talk to God. "God can help you discover -- and realize -- your own
dream", writes Katharine C. Giovianni in her new and wonderful book,
God, is that You? She should know, Katharine has been chatting with
Him since 1996.
In this reviewer’s opinion,
God, is that You? should be on your must-read list!
