Book excerpt: Why is happiness in life so elusive – even for Christians who are “walking in the Spirit”?Is happiness even possible? Will I always scream at the children? Do I have to live with this lustful spirit forever? Why am I fat and miserable? Will I ever reach the place where I won't lose my temper with my spouse? Why does my stomach get all knotted up when I think about that hurtful event in the past? If you have ever asked yourself one of these questions, or countless others like them, then you need to know this: The Holy Spirit came not only to comfort the afflicted, but to afflict the comfortable.Unfortunately, too many of us who call ourselves “Spirit filled” have grown comfortable, finding it easier to wear a mask than to permit ourselves to live transparently—and run the risk of being seen for who we really are.That's what this book is all about. Transparency. Openness. Risky living—the kind that, if practiced, will allow the Holy Spirit to take off your mask, peel back the layers, and heal you from the inside out. All who are self-sufficient should stop here. This book won't apply to you. But if you are not really happy—if your inner person is lonely, empty, and confused—if you know your mask is keeping you from experiencing authentic relationships with people and with God—then read on. Real happiness is possible. Are you willing to take the risk?Risky Living Ministries, Inc.www.rlmin.com
