The Sermon on the Mount: The Key to Success in Life by Emmet Fox

5.0

emotional inspiring medium-paced

---

Just a complete 180 perspective on what my higher power is in life after reading this book.  We find the love of God internally and let it radiate outward through our acts of service towards others.  When we feel disconnected from God's love, and feel restless or discontent, we have the choice to let it fester or seek help through prayer and asking to be free by being shown the path of least resistance.  If we trust that God's path will be the one we're meant to walk on, then that anger will dissipate.  I also appreciate the commentary on the Lord's Prayer - line by line detail and an interpretation of the original meaning of the words used put it into an even more powerful perspective.  I learned that if there are people that I still owe amends or apologies to and I'm putting it off due to fear that I am not truly surrendering myself to God's will and that I technically am not saying the prayer in it's full and meant power.

I'll definitely revisit this book annually, it was a really powerful experience to read.
