Whispers of Love in Seasons of Fear

I was most impressed with this book. I literally stumbled across it because its title is very similar to a website on the same subject. His truths are wonderfully accurate.Having battled fear and panic most of my life, his words hit painfully true in my heart--the only way to overcome fear is face it head on with God holding you close all the way through. A great read. I recommend it highly.

When I picked up this book, I was interested in just browsing through it since I know Terry Wardle's children Aaron and Cara. I hadn't really intended on buying it, after all, I am on medication for my anxiety attacks and that is working just great for me! After 20 years of refusing medication, I have finally given in and found my answer, "it's a chemical imbalance" I've been telling myself... and anyone I want to justify the anxiety to. But as I began to 'just browse' the Lord began revealing things in my life that I needed to see, DESPERATELY! In this book, Terry speaks such plain truth, truth that I had never realized. I've always been adament about not blaming my abusive mother for my anxiety.But,the way that Terry presents it in this book is not placing blame, he is stating facts! And one of his most driven home facts is, "Perfect Love Casts Out All Fear" and the only perfect love on this planet comes from our Lord Jesus Christ! Even if my mother was as perfect as a human can ever get, she still is not capable of PERFECT LOVE. That is only given by Jesus! This book has encouraged me to seek the Lord even deeper in my life, and to get off the Paxil medication! Praise God!
