How can I better discern what God is asking of me? Where can I get clarification to my may unanswered prayers? Why don't I sense the Holy Spirit's presence in my life? When will I understand the will of God for my life? What is the Holy Spirit saying to me in this situation? If you have ever asked yourself these questions, then NEW INSIGHT INTO SEEING THE HOLY SPIRIT AT WORK IN YOUR LIFE is the book for you!
Here are a few samples of what people are saying about Annette's book:
“The Holy Spirit is the gift that comes into man’s heart together with prayer,” wrote Pope St. John Paul II in his encyclical, Dominum et Vivificantem. This book is a reminder of that vital, life-changing truth. Patrick Madrid, Host of The Patrick Madrid Show on Relevant Radio
New Insight into Seeing the Holy Spirit at Work in Your Life struck a chord with me right from the beginning as Annette wrote about God’s attempts to communicate with each and every one of us. Then she deftly tied that notion into identifying and living our God-given purpose in life. I am a firm believer that God does everything short of hitting us over the head with a two-by-four to get our attention. This book may be the two-by-four! It will for sure open your eyes, ears and mind to God’s signs and whispers. Annette has totally opened herself up to us through very personal stories that help her to make her points. She helps us to see the Holy Spirit, to discern God’s will, to be better Christians, to evangelize and be witnesses for Christ, and to have a deep personal relationship with him. Annette Hills has written a gem of a book. It is a book that is chock full of wonderful, insightful, life improving and life-changing nuggets. You will want to keep going back to this book time and again to revisit, reflect upon and process these nuggets. Keep it by your bedside and refer to it often! H.E. Patrick D. Powers, Vice Governor General Of Honor (North America), Knight of the Collar, Equestrian Order of the Holy Sepulchre of Jerusalem
