God is My Success
Transforming Adversity into Your Destiny

by Larry S. Julian



      Why don't you reach your goals even though you work harder and harder? Are your goals in material or other concrete items such as making more money or expanding your business? In God is My Success, author Larry S. Julian explains that those types of goals should not be life's priority, directing his message towards people who may be spiritually floundering and frustrated in life's obstacles. Julian presents a clear path to a peaceful and successful life. He includes many real life examples of people who have overcome their own adversities.

Julian details a two-part method to reach your goals. He asserts that life's adversities can be overcome with a partnership with God. The first part is to submit to God and release distractions, pain, fear, and finances to Him. The second part involves taking charge of areas that God expects a person to control. Some areas include following God's direction, confronting fears, and becoming the success that God expects.

In God is My Success, Julian shares his painful experiences in reaching his goals of having a baby with his wife and of publishing his first religious book. Julian elaborates that a partnership with the Almighty will lessen, though not erase, obstacles. When striving toward these goals, people need to enjoy the journey instead of focusing on the goals entirely. The important fact remains: God determines the outcome.

I enjoyed the book, particularly the helpful exercises titled "Practical Applications" and "Discussion Guide." I highly recommend God is My Success for people who find life full of worry, fear, financial difficulties, and personal or professional obstacles.
