HEAVEN SENT - PRACTICAL- EVERYDAY LIFE

I drove nearly 200 miles to see the author and her husband at a book signing where I purchased this book. I would encourage everyone reading my review to try to see the author, Joyce Meyer, in person. Life is too complicated these days and any hints or exercises or changes I can make to simplify my life are always helpful. One thing Joyce Meyer teaches is that so much of our lives are controlled by our possessions - taking care of stuff, cleaning stuff, storing stuff, acquiring stuff - soooo, a good exercise is to examine and assess what role possessions and material things play in your life. Joyce encourages us to go visit a junkyard and look at things sitting in a junkyard. She reminds us that those things in that junkyard are long forgotten by someone but at one time these things were someone's dream and even could have resulted in a broken relationship to acquire these things or possess them. This insight sort of puts into perspective our materialistic culture. When I first started reading this book and watching the author on TV, I was somewhat put off by her personality. She has a midwestern straightforwardness which I actually find refreshing but some may be put off. Try to get past the messenger herself and listen to her message(s). One exercise in using this book is not to read it front to back, cover to cover. You can open the book to any random page and read ONE of the 100 things to simplify your life. You don't necessarily have to do them in order or sequence. Be creative and think outside the box. Some of the exercises may be easy for you while others may be more difficult.

100 Ways To Simplify Your LIfe

This book has changed my life in so many ways. I love it so much, I ordered another copy for my friend. This is the book for anyone that is losing their way or needs a little reminder of the basic bible principals that make our lives run smoothly. I highly recommend this book for every Christian out there. Joyce Meyers is a great teacher, straight to the point and is very relatable.

Great Inspiration!

Joyce Meyer did a wonderful job getting down to the true crux of the matter - we are just too busy and we complicate things way too much! She gives clear, simple, even humorous advice on how to simplify the lives we have made so overwhelming! She has a Bible quote for each of the 100 suggestions, as well as a second quote from varoious sources. Truly an enjoyable, enlightening read well worth the time!!

Investing in Yourself

Life often becomes confusing and complicated due to the way we handle our circumstances. Joyce teaches that in the midst of our circumstances, we can simplify our lives by living according to His teachings. We can easily become burdened by trying to live our lives according to the expectations of society. I have learned so much about myself and what is important to me by reading and studying the suggestions Joyce makes in her book that I have noticed a positive difference in how I respond to my circumstances as well as to other people. Your peace and joy is worth investing in.

Simplify and learn

Joyce Meyer uses her unique brand of common sense, and Biblical perspective, to help us find true simplicity in our lives, and freedom in God. Each chapter is short enough to be a great daily reading, making it easy to use this book as a devotional, or as an addition to one already in use. It is a tool for simplifying what we often make complicated-life. Joyce never misses the mark, and to me she has scored another great book.
