Twice Blessed

I just finished reading Twice Blessed by S. Michael Wilcox. It was on sale at Deseret Book so I picked it up. To sum it up short it's about forgiveness. What I specifically enjoyed about this book is that it is filled with hope and love. Wilcox addresses forgiving others as well as yourself through examples in the scriptures of forgiveness. It took me a couple of chapters to truly enjoy reading it but after finishing the book I really did love it! Forgiving myself is seriously so hard for me. I find myself dwelling on mistakes I've made no matter how long ago it happened. I think about relationships and how I've treated people unkindly or may have hurt feelings. I liked this book because I felt like it gave me permission to forgive myself for so many things. It teaches of God's love and his forgiveness he has for all of us! Wilcox shows his communication with our Heavenly Father in an inspiring manner. It made me want to be better and more open to the spirit. The main thing I took away from the book was I want to improve my forgiveness skills. I want to forgive myself more freely as well as others. I feel like in working on forgiveness I will actually be happier!



The next book I'm reading is The Happiness Project by Gretchen Rubin
