The book Original Love helped me so much in understanding more deeply the Love of God for me personally. I so loved this notion that says "He loves me not because I have anything to offer Him but because I came from Him." (Genesis 2:23) This idea captured my heart. It made me realized that as a woman, I don't need to display my worth from my own resources to attract in any way and I don't need to prove my value or capability. I have nothing on my own. All that I possessed was given to me by God through Christ (the second Adam), and with Him I am can become the receiver of blessings with a trusting obedience and a joyful submission.
A refreshing kick start of hope, meaning and purpose to crumpling concepts around us now. Coming from a world where performing meant everything and emptiness was the by product, I felt relieved to read a concept to show of a better “world”. A better “currency” of trade and interaction. This book brought me much hope and comfort in that I understood more of who I am and where I came from and better yet my real purpose in life. Take a fresh look at life and find your true identity and purpose.
