Becoming Us by Robin Jones Gunn

Paperback Becoming Us : A Gather Novel Book

I really enjoyed this book. It spoke to the concept of allowing God to lead you in your life. Often times we want to know where the road is leading and when we allow God to lead we aren't sure exactly where we will end up. That can be very frightening if we allow it to be. If, on the other hand, we know God loves us and wants the very best for us, then wherever He leads us it can only be for our own good. 

Emily and her husband followed God's leading and it lead them from North Caroline where his family was to California where they really knew no one. Yet, they felt certain God was in control and this was where He wanted them to be at this time. Yet, there were many challenges and those challenges made them question whether they had truly heard God correctly. Was this where they were suppose to be? 

It is really easy to wonder if we are truly listening and are we really following God's will for our lives. I really enjoyed how the author explored this topic. She gave wonderful insights. The storyline follows Emily as she begins to make new friends in her new life. These new friends give her life a rich and fulfilling dimension making California a less lonely place for her and her family.
