Tell Your Heart to Beat Again: Let the Whispers of God Bring New Hope to Your Soul

My life began changing immediately when reading this book. I can see why patients fall in love with their doctors after reading this book because the author is a "literary" heart doctor. At least I feel as though I had open heart surgery ... and he leaned over and said to ME "tell your heart to beat again." I just finished reading it and am reacclimating to those unavoidable stresses of life ... and look forward to being able to read this compassionate work all over again ... after I reread the dog-eared pages and the pencil notes in the margins ... Thank you "doctor" Sheets!

I came across this book while in treatment for a serious illness, when I had just about lost all hope in life and in myself. When I began to read, it was as if a light was lit inside of my heart. Pastor Sheets showed me that I was suffering from Hope Deferred, and that I needed to let God back into my life, to trust, believe, and have faith, and most importantly, to regain HOPE, hope that my life could improve, and that God would guide me down the right paths. And he has! No medications, doctors, or therapists have helped as much as simply opening my heart to God and having hope! This book was a blessing, and I pray that everyone who reads it is as moved as I was. Praise God, be happy, and "get busy livin'"!
