Ebook About “I want you to take every step of your life with excitement for where you are headed. And I want you to feel beautiful and confident as you do.” But how? When the enemy whispers lies that you are not smart enough, pretty enough, or rich enough? Or you are too dumb, too loud, too quiet, too thin, too fat, too much or not enough? What if you don’t have what it takes to be who you really want to be? In Looking for Lovely, Annie F. Downs shares personal stories, biblical truth, and examples of how others have courageously walked the path God paved for their lives by remembering all God had done, loving what was right in front of them, and seeing God in the everyday—whether that be nature, friends, or the face they see in the mirror. Intensely personal, yet incredibly powerful, Looking for Lovely will spark transformative conversations and life changing patterns. No matter who we are and what path God has us on, we all need to look for lovely, fight to finish, and find beautiful in our every day!Book Looking for Lovely: Collecting Moments that Matter Review :
So, so, so good. When Annie originally came out with this book, I did not buy it because another reviewer accused it of being shallow. I had already loved "Let's all be Brave," but if this one wasn't as "deep" I didn't want to waste my money on it. Recently, though, I decided to ignore the review and buy it anyway. I am so glad that I did. This is definitely my favorite book that I have read in a while. Annie has an amazing way of being real and speaking to the hard stuff of life. She uses Scripture (with good interpretation) and the power of story to speak to the problem of suffering. I love how she is so honest about her experiences, especially with seeing a counselor. I think this is terribly needed today. And in regards to the other reviewer who dubbed this book shallow, I can say, it is decidedly not. A book doesn't have to be a discourse on systematic theology to be deep and speak to our lives. And it is also far more enjoyable than the discourses on systematic theology that I have read. ;) Thank you Annie. I have truly fallen in love with you, and have been changed by your writing. I love Annie’s style of communication. She starts with a story that either provokes me to be like, “Girl, I feel you.” Or has me laughing so hard tears are streaming down my face and then all of a sudden she has connected it to this truth that has me looking around to see who is staring at me because I know that is just for me.Looking for Lovely kind of kicked me in the gut in ways that I needed it over and over again. Annie shared about walking into the brokenness in her own life and oh how I desperately needed someone to stop saying life was beautiful and truly talk about the hard parts.“If you want to be full of hope, you have to suffer a bit.”She shared about overcoming the lies and broken pieces of her life and how the Lord so intimately met her there. This journey is hard and heartbreaking. Both from experience and from walking girls through it, I know that you feel alone, broken, and like giving up, and I love that Annie illuminated both how real and how trying of a journey this is but most importantly how fruitful and life giving it is. (Also, I love how she addressed just how helpful going to counseling can be, as it can be a scary and stigmatized step for many.)“I started to turn toward the whispered lies and look them in the face, giving my soul a voice to stand up for the truth.”But amidst this hard and trying journey of a broken world full of pain and heartache, Annie emphasizes that there are beautiful little reminders of hope. She speaks about the small things that remind her life is good like sushi and friends, and I can attest to these little sprinkles of grace in dark times, like a friend who brings Starbucks to the hospital and just massages your back and doesn’t say a word, a best friend that brings you a birthday present the day your Dad dies in the hospital, or coworkers that throw you a birthday party a week late so you could still be celebrated. (Can I get on my soap box here for just a second and scream to you to never separate yourself from the body of Christ. Can I just tell you from the depths of my soul how desperately you need them when you are in these dark places?)I was listening to a sermon last night as a I was driving into Atlanta, because sometimes I need room to be myself and cry in response to sermons. John Piper talked about how Jesus taught us to rejoice. This wasn’t a rejoicing that was naïve or oblivious to pain and hurt, but this was a rejoicing with tears streaming down his face in pain and fear to the point of death, but He “rejoiced in the hope of the glory of God”. Similarly, Paul is in chains, in prison in a deep hole, truly suffering and writes to the Church how he rejoices for them.And as I have been so thankful and so blessed amidst feeling so much pain I actually feel it in my chest, God has taught me so much about this. We rejoice that somehow, someday this will all make sense, but right now it doesn’t and it hurts and God invites us to feel that and invite Him into it.And I think Annie emphasizes this so well that when we walk into our rainy days and lonely nights and painful thoughts, we somehow walk into allowing hope and love to abound in us in deeper ways that we ever thought possible.“If you aren’t experiencing pain, you aren’t experiencing beauty. Darkness makes us appreciate the beauty of light. If you aren’t allowing yourself to feel the hurt, sadness, loneliness, and disappointment this fallen world has to offer, you probably aren’t feeling the fullness of the joy and beauty the redeemed moments have to offer.”To sum all of this up, I loved this book and amidst reading it bought 3 copies for other people.
