The Gift God Wants - Finding Joy and Peace in a Life of Surrender

Did you know that God actually wants your problems? You don't need to fix things up or try to make your life look pretty before you hand it all over to Him. The Bible says all our good deeds are like filthy rags, anyway; so who are we kidding? God desires for you to turn your life over to Him completely. The only thing He needs from His children is complete and total surrender. Only then will we find our purpose and become who He created us to be.

Through her genuine and transparent stories, Lenae Litzinger invites you on a heart tugging journey as she learns to start letting go of her fear and pride. The Gift God Wants includes personal stories that center around the main theme of giving yourself completely to God by listening to the Holy Spirit, embracing brokenness, and surrendering your sinful will to Christ. You will find her writing style inviting as she lets you take a peek into her soul while she passionately shares the work God is doing in her life.
