Before GOOD Becomes "OH, GOD!": A 14-Day Journey

Learning to Quiet the Noise, Seek God's Wisdom, and Recognize His Direction. A 14-day journey by Rev. Leroy Godfrey Jr. Coming soon from PrayerLife365.

About the book

We know how to recognize something good: a promising relationship, a better job, a house that seems perfect, a plan that finally solves a problem. But we can be so eager to embrace the good that we forget to seek God. We pray after deciding. We ask for a blessing after making the commitment. Then comes the unexpected, and we find ourselves calling out, "Oh, God!"

This book is an invitation to make room for God before your next decision. Over fourteen days you'll practice three movements: Be Still. Be Listening. Be Led. Each day includes a short teaching, questions for reflection, an honest prayer, and a quiet-time practice.

A prayer before we begin

Lord, loosen my grip on the answer I have already chosen. Teach me to listen to Your Word, examine my motives, welcome correction, and trust You with what I cannot control. Amen.
