You Are A New Creation

Beschreibung

Our stories, yours and mine, are more than quirky happenings; each of us has been in the mind of God and his designs for all eternity. We each have, upon our souls, some aspect of the divine. However, we have, each one of us, besmirched that image from its original beauty. Our Creator, in his infinite love, places in our lives (in a way unique to each one of us) challenges, sufferings, and disappointments. When we acknowledge these events as coming from the loving hand of God, accept and embrace them, we allow God to make of us-a new creation. The Divine image in each one of us is made more beautiful by our cooperation with the work of God in our lives.

Autor

Against a background of ancestors whose travels brought them to America and whose legacy of faith enriched the lives of their descendants, Doctor Schuler recounts the story of her life from early years to her movement through a number of scenarios. Her entry into whom she would become began with five years spent as a cloistered nun. After leaving the cloister, her next meaningful step was into a religious community of women dedicated to teaching. Upon leaving that community, she continued to teach-no longer as a member of a community, but as termed "a lay person," in distinction to being a nun who teaches school. That career was followed by returning to school and acquiring a doctoral degree in psychology. The final years of her professional life were as a psychologist in a state prison. Now retired, she shares with us her intriguing life and her growth in faith in her book "You Are A New Creation.
