God's Word tells us that the Holy Spirit inhabits our being, offering strength, wisdom, and direction for our daily lives. But amid the din of life's stress and busyness, is it possible to experience a renewing, energizing relationship with the Spirit? Margaret Therkelsen answers with a resounding yes in this warm, loving guide to developing deeper closeness with the Holy Spirit.
No matter where you are on your faith journey, this book can illuminate a path toward significant spiritual growth. When you learn to listen, lay down control, and focus inward, you will be drawn irresistibly to the Holy Spirit, who will calm you, direct your steps, and bless you with unbelievable, unconditional love.
Margaret Therkelsen, a professional musician for over thirty-three years, was guided to become a retreat speaker on prayer and the spiritual life. She received her master's degree in marriage and family therapy and has a successful counseling practice. Much of her day is devoted to prayer and helping others with their prayer journey. She and her husband live in Lexington, Kentucky.
"Margaret Therkelsen's book is an authentic account of her own pilgrimage of discovering the Presence for the details of living… New seekers will find practical helps and veterans will revisit wonderful old paths of blessing."
Neil B. Wiseman, author, conference speaker, pastor, Bible college professor
