How to Make People Really Feel Loved: And Other Life-Giving Observations

Real love...we all want it, and we all have trouble giving it sometimes! In How to Make People Really Feel Loved, Charlie Shedd offers wisdom for showing God's love to those who need it most: Your spouse and children, other family and friends, co-workers and acquaintances, those who are hard to love, people who you would like to reach for Christ. One of the most important ways to show love, says Charlie, is through prayer: "Real prayer is not something we do. Real prayer is something the Lord does through us. And the thing he does through us is to love with real love. Love divine. All loves excelling." This collection of wisdom is topped off with seven positive affirmations--one for each day of the week--that you can incorporate into your own life. Follow these affirmations and you will discover that it is possible to love the whole world--one person at a time. Charlie W. Shedd was a beloved pastor and bestselling Christian author known for his warmth, humor, and practical wisdom on marriage, family, and everyday faith.
