In His Image by Jen Wilkins

In His Image: 10 Ways God Calls Us to Reflect His Character by [Wilkin, Jen]

Here is the book summary:
Sometimes we ask What is God’s will for my life? when we should really be asking Who should I be? The Bible has an answer: Be like the very image of God.
By exploring ten characteristics of who God is—holy, loving, just, good, merciful, gracious, faithful, patient, truthful, and wise—this book helps us understand who God intends for us to be. Through Christ, the perfect reflection of the image of God, we will discover how God’s own attributes impact how we live, leading to freedom and purpose as we follow his will and are conformed to his image.

And now, my review:
This book nails the premise of seeking God’s will.  The very fact that we are currently able to breathe in and out means that we are recipients of His mercy.  I love how she spoke on justice, mercy, and grace.  She said that justice is getting what we deserve.  Mercy is not getting what we deserve.  Grace is getting what we do not deserve.  She called mercy and grace sisters.  She talks about God and all His amazing attributes and HOW, we as His children, are to walk in the light of these truths about Him and us as we are made in His Image.  I highly recommend this read and look forward to reading more from her in the future. 

I received a copy of this book in exchange for my honest review.
