Who Holds the Key to Your Heart?

by Lysa TerKeurst

Inside the hearts of most women lies a "secret place" containing hidden thoughts, painful experiences, and emotions that they feel are better left alone. But God wants to have all of their hearts and desires to set them free from guilt and shame. Lysa TerKeurst offers Who Holds the Key to You Heart? as a practical tool to help women identify their shame and lead them to hope and healing through Scripture. Women will be renewed through a deeper understanding of their identity in Christ and break the bondage hidden in their secret place.

I read this book as a devotional and I was challenged, touched, healed, inspired ... For me it was just as the write up on the back cover says ... "Who holds the key to your heart? is your map through the deepest places of your soul, where God can reveal His truth and set you free. Once He unlocks every hurting and dark place, He will offer you hope, heal you with God's Word, and fill you with His redeeming love, joy and peace!"

There are many profound truths within this book that impacted my life.

This is a great book for every woman to read! The author takes 9 ways that Satan deceives us through shame, despair, fear, discontentment, loneliness, insecurity, doubt, bitterness, and addiction and shows through the Word of God how to combat Satan's deception with love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. I was challenged and inspired personally through reading this book and plan to add more to my library of books by this author. "God wants the key to your heart, your whole heart, especially the hidden parts."
