Book Review: "Encouragement for an Exceptional Life: Be Empowered and Intentional" By Victoria Osteen



Be not afraid. Don't live in fear. Conquer anxieties and fulfill life's dreams!

It's always an absolute pleasure to read anything from Victoria Osteen as she and her husband are true inspirations of joy, peace, and happiness.

Whenever life gets you down the notion for many is to curl up in a ball withdrawing from society yet Victoria knows that life has its ups and downs and we are never promised a tomorrow.
We must take hold of each new day and value our time hear on Earth by using every increment to be a blessing to others.

"God is always at work in our lives. When we learn to look up from our problems and the challenges we face, and keep our eyes on God and how He is making a way, we can move forward in faith and begin to live the exceptional life God has planned for us."

"Life is a lot like racquetball. Looking back at your past mistakes and reliving your failures will only cause damage. Dwelling on past hurts and who did you wrong will will ruin your relationships, lower your self-esteem, and steal your confidence. To live in the 'I wish I had done it different' or Why did this happen? will limit your potential and rob you of your passion."

In other words, as Victoria noted- Draw strength from Him. Receive His wisdom, receive His peace, and receive His power. Then you'll be able to go out and fight the good fight of faith.

It's such a joy and blessing to once again be fulfilled in times of great civil unrest in our nation.
We can only pray and hope for better days ahead.

Much love and peace to all.
God Bless the USA!
