Book Review - "The Shack"

Ok, so I just finished reading this book and it was amazing, yet heart wrenching, yet humbling, yet life changing! Wow, I recommend everyone read this book but make sure you have a box of tissues near by for it will pull on your heart. You can't help but see life so differently afterwards. Let me know your thoughts afterward. Some quotes that really impacted me were these:

"Trust is the fruit of a relationship in which you know you are loved."

"The person who lives by their fears will not find freedom in my love."

"To force my will on you is exactly what love does not do, says Jesus".

"Judging requires that you think yourself superior over the one you judge."

"Grace doesn't depend on suffering to exist, but where there is suffering you will find grace in many facets and colors."

This world is full of tears, but if you remember I promised that it would be Me (God) who would wipe them from your eyes." "When you start to sink, let Me rescue you."
