Mind Your Heart

How do you come back to yourself after losing yourself in a man? When you stray from God how do you return?<br /><br />In this unashamedly candid memoir first-time author Liza Mitchell recalls the time of her life when she did just this pursuing the love of a man at her church relentlessly and fervently at the expense of her relationship both to herself and God.<br /><br />Against her better judgement Liza begins to find herself unerringly compelled by Sean a local man who attends her church. This leads her to embark on a tumultuous on-again off-again relationship with him despite his non-committal ways and the un-Christlike tendencies he often exhibits. This leads to her own un-Christlike behaviours ultimately culminating in an incident where she travels to check in on his house when he's not there against his wishes. This is followed by a great deal of remorse leading to her struggling with whether to return to her church singing group-or church generally.<br /><br />Through faith and hard work though Liza is able to recover her relationship to herself and God. Ultimately hers is a heartening message bolstered by her Christian faith affirming God's love as capable of clearing the conscience. After all Jesus died for our sins.
