The Shack

Postby ServeGod » Sun Jun 17, 2012 5:31 am

Book: The Shack
Author: Wm. Paul Young.
Whats it about: Love, grief and forgiveness.
My rating: 10/10

Yes, I finally got it back, I brought about 5 copies of this book and gave them to friends and family. This one came back cause my son had it.
Will share my favourite bit in the book:

"Consider our litter friend here," she began. "Most birds were created to fly. Being grounded for them is a limitation within their ablility to fly, not the other way around". She paused to let Mack think about her statement. "You, on the other hand, were created to be loved. So for you to live as if you were unloved is a limitation, not the other way around.............Living unloved is like clipping a bird's wing and removing its ablility to fly. Not something I want for you....."Mack, pain has a way of clipping our wings and keeping us from being able to fly".

I read this book as a recommendation from a friend and I'm glad I did. It gave me a wonderful new prospective and new appreciation for all the wonders of the Lord. Great read.
I may have wisdom, and knowledge on Earth
but if I speak wrong, then what is it worth?
See, what we now know is NOTHING compared
to the love that was shown when our lives were spared!
