She addresses this book to those who are highly sensitive – both emotionally and spiritually – but I think any Christian can benefit from reading it.
Within the pages, she describes how often we can become burden bearers for others in both healthy and unhealthy ways. Sometimes we bear the burdens and take them to Christ through prayer and yet other times we hold onto the burdens, which then ends up weighing us down.
I found myself relating to several of the stories and realized that it is important to recognize the warning signs of holding on to other people’s burdens. Within the book, the author provides practical tips to discern this. She also has a chapter about hearing God’s voice as well as one about things that may be blocking God’s voice which I found both helpful and practical.
I highly recommend this book!
