Walking the Heart Path by Sharon E. Reed
$18.95
Sometimes the most powerful words are not those shouted at us in a crowded auditorium as a motivational speaker goes wild. Sometimes the most powerful words are those gently whispered when we sit alone with a good book in our hands. Walking the Heart Path quietly weaves such words into a beautiful picture of what it means to live authentically, humbly and with kindness.
This is not a book to be read through once; rather, it reminds me of my mother's "magical jar" of buttons that I would dip into as a child. Every time I looked, I would find a new treasure to trap between my palms, to look at, savor and think about. The same can be said of this book. It is full of simple nuggets of truth that can be enjoyed time and time again.
