Ann Monster Promotes Developing Intimate Relationship With God

God and the difficult situations in life that author Ann Monster deems overwhelming or inexplicable inspired her to write the book, "God Glasses" (published by iUniverse). By the age of 35, she was enslaved by anxiety. She recalls one particularly stressful night when she cried out, "God, I would just like to relax for a moment!" Instantly, all anxiety disappeared, the peace of God flowed in and so began a journey of dialogue with the words, "Trust Me!"

"God Glasses" is about developing an intimate relationship with one's God and then using that relationship to enhance the potentiality of each and every one's life. The book is scribed through experiences in life with all the ups and down. The book enables readers to realize that God cares deeply for each and everyone regardless of religious beliefs. The book expresses love, understanding, forgiveness, compassion, wisdom and guidance.

"Considering the state of anxiety and violence that dominates our world news on a continuing basis, many of us are in need of relief and hope," says the author on the relevance of her book in today's society.

By putting on "God Glasses," the author hopes that readers will be surprised at how viewing something from God's perspective can bring healing, acceptance, understanding, hope and wisdom. She also hopes that they will have a renewed and more intimate relationship with their God and a solid sense of hope for the future.
