Count the Stars: Allow God to Fill Your Heart with Wonder (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781637466612)

In an incredible encounter with God, Abram opens his heart and shares a sincere, direct dialogue and shares his frustrations and anxieties. In shocking grace, the Lord, instead of rebuking him, calls Abram outside his tent, lifts his eyes to gaze into the heavens, and then asks him to do the impossible: Count the stars. While it was impossible for Abram to count all the stars, it was an easy task for God.

In Count The Stars, you will:

1. Be filled with the wonder of God and His power.Be emptied of fear and worry as you are reminded of God's abilities.Be grateful to have One with whom you can be honest and open.Be excited about what your mighty God will do in your future.

I have been a night-sky lover for a long time. Nothing is more peaceful to me than to look into the star-lit blackened backdrop of a crisp night canopy and be reminded that there is a BIG GOD... and I'm not Him! Dr. Turner's wonderful look into the life of Abraham and God's patient interaction with him could not be a more timely read! The dark skies of uncertainty and difficulty are all around us. But so are the stars! As you dive into Count the Stars, you will be encouraged and transformed... you will also never look into the night sky the same again! Enjoy.
