The Famine of the Human Dream: Essays and Poems

Benjamin Mester

4.9/5 (27520 ratings)

Description:The great theologian CS Lewis once said: “It would seem that Our Lord finds our desires not too strong, but too weak. We are half-hearted creatures, fooling about with drink and sex and ambition when infinite joy is offered us, like an ignorant child who wants to go on making mud pies in a slum because he cannot imagine what is meant by the offer of a holiday at the sea. We are far too easily pleased.” The ultimate goal of life isn't a search for happiness. The ultimate goal of life is learning how to fight for things worth fighting for. There is something in the human spirit that despises a life of comforts and ease, of storing away more and more in preparation for every possible future need. The human spirit longs to live in courage, to do the difficult, not to worry so much about tomorrow, but to live well now! All of life is a battle. But the battle isn't primarily between right and wrong. Rather, it's between strength and weakness. That's why throughout the Bible, God was constantly admonishing His people: "Be Strong in the Lord!" But how? The Famine of the Human Dream combines a unique mixture of theology, philosophy and poetry...a combination that speaks to both the mind and the heart. This book will change the way you view your life, what it means to be human, and what we were really created for.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
