This is an inspirational book that will motivate you to listen to God through the prompting of His Holy Spirit. It shows the reader the awesome power of the third person of the Godhead. It also talks about the importance of relationships-the relationship we should have with God and the relationship we should have with each other. It acknowledges how these relationships developed the maturity and character of the author over time and eventually molded him into a vessel that the Lord could use to accomplish His will according to His purpose. This book encourages you to consider God as a vital necessity in your life and to put your total trust in Him. And by listening to that still inner voice inside you which is the Holy Spirit you will get comfort, direction, find peace, and hear the truth. And the truth shall set you free from all those things which have kept you in bondage. The author reveals how listening, heeding, and responding to the Holy Spirit have positively impacted his life, and the same can happen to you.

Noted for its depth of coverage, it explores issues of common interest to instructors, administrators, counselors, and policymakers in a broad range of education settings, such as colleges and universities, extension programs, businesses, libraries, and museums.
