Blessed Are the Spiraling is the first book I have read by Levi Lusko, but it will not be the last. This book is completely relatable, yet it's hard to find the right words to write a review.
"Spiraling comes in all shapes and sizes and can show up when least expected. Blessings and burdens are both heavy and can be easily confused."
The book is divided into two sections, Part 1: Get your bearings, face your shadow, and strategize for this season. Part 2: Live from your God-given identity, focus on true treasure, and prepare to end well. I loved the creativity of the chapter titles, "Become Yoda," and "Albert Einstein's Dirty Little Secret." There are so many great nuggets of truth tucked into each chapter.
"As we get closer to the end of the journey, we (hopefully) better understand what is truly meaningful. There is significance in the spiral. It is not meaningless. The goal is to get closer to the center as you go around and around in smaller and smaller circles."
I have 40+ tabs in this book and many more highlights. It is not a book to be rushed, but a book to be savored. I appreciated the conversational style the author uses. I felt like I was having a conversation with a wise friend, one who has been there and done that. A friend that is challenging me to think through my current circumstances and examine what things I am allowing to have space in my life, and if they should be there.
Thank you to Front Gate Media for the opportunity to read this book. I was not required to provide a positive review. All thoughts and opinions are entirely my own.
