The Making of You
by Reverend Michele Taylor
Category: Social Science

I was 20 years of age when the Lord saved me. My new life in Christ was filled with many blessings, deliverance, joy and hope. Yet, someone forgot to tell me that being saved was not all happy times. I learned quickly that being saved meant suffering, persecution, being attacked spiritually, having my faith challenged and a being hurt by fellow Christians in the church. After 20 years of "going through," whether by self-imposed circumstances or those that were imposed by others, God spoke to my heart about perseverance, longsuffering and endurance. He reminded me that He was yet in the midst of my suffering, disobedience and backslidden condition molding and shaping me into a useable vessel for kingdom building. He reminded me of who I am in Him, who He is in me and why I had to go through what I went through. The Making of You speaks to every Christian believer, new and mature, that has ever wondered, "Why me?" We are wonderfully and fearfully made in the image of God, yet it is through adversity that we learn to grow in grace unto spiritual maturity. This book will help you in your journey.
