Greater Than Our Hearts
R5D2
September is really a fun time for all book lovers out there since this is usually the month that the Philippine Bookfair is held, at the same time, National Bookstore and Powerbooks also hold their annual cut-price booksale. Imagine how much you can spend and how many books you can get all at discounted prices.
While browsing over the books on sale during the bookfair, I chanced upon a bundle of books being sold at St. Pauls at a bargain price of Php 590.00 for 12 books by Fr. Nil Guillemette. I have heard a lot about his God tales and somehow, I think it's about time to buy myself one set.
After reading the first book, Greater Than Our Hearts, I've realized that I was fortunate enough to buy the book, for indeed, the stories contained herein are inspiring and can keep your faith alive.
As the back cover description of the book aptly states: "God-Tales is a series of short tales written for Christians who can still marvel at God's ways and expect the unexpected from Him. Each story conveys something of God's mysterious ways, of His love, and of His wisdom to warm the readers' hearts and make them grow in love."
Fr. Nil did not write the book in vain as some of the stories touched me in ways I couldn't describe. Here are some noteworthy stories you might find appealing too:
- Find out how the birds can teach us about life in The Birds Know the Score
- Find out how Mama Mary saved a scoundrel from going to hell by defending him in court in Fireproof.
- Let's be careful in what we pray for. Read more about this in My Will Be Done
- Total trust in God put to a test in Between Friends
- We have to experience pain order to be whole again in How Can You Be So Cruel
- Let us see God everywhere in With Other Eyes
These and more in the first volume of God-Tales: Greater Than Our Hearts.
