Didn’t Like It“I love all of Joyce Meyer's books and this one was no different from the others that I have read. She hits the points right on and always encourages. Good read!” see full review » see other reviews » |
“This book was life-changing for me. I learned that if in my heart, I'm doing my best to serve and love God, then if people don't approve, it's their problem, not mine! I used to hate knowing someone didn't approve of me. Now I recognize when I'm trying to gain the approval of people and need to refocus my need for approval on God! I learned to let go of a lot of unnecessary stress.”

I don't care if everyone likes me. I can say no." Then I started reading Meyer's words and many of the situations she described sounded familiar. Subconsciously I was seeking approval. There were times when I was reading this book that I felt like Meyer was speaking directly to me; breaking down my walls, healing my hurts and strengthening my backbone. As Meyer states when you realize what drives you, you can make changes. I have started making changes in my life and the way I think about myself thanks to this book. I truly believe that anything is possible with Jesus. ”

This is an area that I have always struggled with: approval with underlying issues of fear of rejection. Joyce had some encouraging and practical ways to help.”

You only need to please God, and let him take care of everything else is the bottom line. Read the book though, whether you crave others' approval or know someone who does. There is plenty of good content in this most helpful book.”
