Download or read book God Up Close and Personal written by Gwenn McKone and published by Selah Publishing Group. This book was released on 2010-03 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is God like? Does He have a personality? The answer is a resounding "Yes!" In God, Up Close and Personal, the reader will go on a journey through many of God's character traits, which are a bit like ours, but in a "God" kind of way. We were created in His image, so it shouldn't be surprising that God can be jealous, generous, heroic, tender, romantic or even wounding. By exploring the evidence of God's personality sprinkled throughout the Bible, and adding a generous helping of the author's own experiences with the great "I AM," God's character begins to take shape in this book, and even to shimmer with His glory.

Book excerpt: As you radiate peace and goodwill, you open up the channels for Gods love to come in. Every day, we have to blot out noises and chatter and listen for the voice of God and respond accordingly. The acceptable time is not the length of time. It is the due time God has alloted for his children. The choices we make are the ones we have to live with. Choose well. With a strong arm, God will bring us to a place of surrender. The Holy Spirit desires that we walk in integrity and humility in order to have an encounter with God. He must be properly introduced. Many know of him, yet they do not know him as the giver of life. The enemy has cast a spirit of seduction and self-destruction on this generation and this peoplea generation that has been written off as hopeless and lost, plagued with fear, addiction, and abuse. What we fail to see is the invisible cry from within. Somebody help me with this. Is there hope for me? Sometimes words are difficult to express. And sometimes there is no one to listen. Questions: Will God accept me in my sin? Is there a place for me in the church? What if Im a homosexual or lesbian and struggling, searching for a way out? Can you look past my dress code and see whats in my heart or at least ask? This is not working for me. I really need some help over here.
