The Will of God: Finding and Fulfilling Your Purpose in Life by Fr. Kenneth Baker
This book provides the modern reader with guidance on how to reach intimacy with God and happiness with him forever by bringing ones life into conformity with his will. The book consults many sources the Bible, the teachings of the Church, and the lives of the saints and the formula is the same: Obey God in all things.
In discerning the will of God, there are many questions to consider: What is the relationship between human freedom and divine Providence? What good can result from sin and suffering? What is a vocation, and how does a person hear this calling from God? All saints of the Church have this in common: They sought to discover the creators will for them and tried to accomplish it to the best of their ability and according to the grace they received from God. The task of all of us is to do likewise.
- Short Description:
- God created us for a purpose. Each one of us is unique, but each one has a destiny of eternal happiness. We reach this destiny by freely embracing the will of the God who made us, as it is manifested to us in the circumstances of our daily lives.
