powerful message of acceptance
This book, originally published in 1960, should be recognized as a spiritual classic. The Dutch Jesuit, Peter van Breemen, has written several books on spirituality, and many repeat the key messages found in this book. For example, "I am accepted by God as I am - as I am, and not as I should be." This simple statement is an huge blessing for those struggling with their self-image. He offers practical advice on how to integrate various segments of your life as you strive for wholeness (and holiness). He makes it easy to understand God's love, and to enhance the desire to reply to that love though the actions of our lives, including prayer. The title doesn't fully convey the power of the book. Highly recommended.
