More DescriptionBeginning with the premise that you don't have to be a saint to be spiritually alive, AWAKE MY SOUL focuses the reader's attention on twelve ways to find new meaning in everyday experiences. These suggestions are not grand new theories about how to get in touch with God- they are reminders of what we have forgotten along life's road - that God is within reach, that we must keep our eyes and ears open and pay attention to the rhythms of daily life. The author's pragmatic approach helps us to find grace and joy in the simplest things that surround us, whether it's the sounds of setting the table for breakfast or the sight of a child at play. And suddenly it doesn't seem so overwhelming to make a long term commitment to what promises to be the most rewarding contribution we make to our overall well-being.
