So I went to Laterna Ventures sometime in December and stumbled upon this book ‘Romancing the Divine: a a story about True Love’ by Don Nori. Being the sucker for love and romance that I am, I immediately picked it up. Of course I knew it wouldn’t be in the same category as a Nora Roberts or Julie Garwood novel; after all this was a Christian book.
Still, I was enchanted and curious enough to pick it up - and less than 5 pages towards the end of the book; I can say it has been an absolutely phenomenal read - absolutely phenomenal!
Now don’t get me wrong; it’s not one of those fast-paced, page-turners that make you get excited quickly. Instead it’s very insightful, very paced, encourages you to stop and think, and take notes (like I did lol). So it’s a book I absolutely, totally, completely recommend.
If you’re the one who searches for answers in books; this book won’t do that. What it will do is try to show you just how far and wide-reaching God’s Grace is. It will show you what it really means when the Gods says that He loved us BEFORE we were even conceived. It will show you that there is NOTHING, I repeat, NOTHING you can do MORE or LESS that will stop God from loving you. It will show you what it means to surrender completely to God’s Grace. But most of all, it will show you what saying ‘Yes’ to God will do to your soul, spirit and mind.
Do I sound overly poetic? Okay sorry about that. But you have to have a little poetry in your soul to get the magic of this book o! Enjoy.
