The words engaging, real, heart warming, soul searching and simply captivating best describes this well packaged book of knowledge on realistic daily living. One of the best inspirational and eye opening books I have ever read.
Tesh is one with a deep knowledge of the Word of God and have over the years documented her discoveries as led and taught by the Spirit of God. Having been through quite a bit in life, God had prepared her using her experiences for such a time as this when the writings will be made public to positively impact humanity. I for one count it a blessing to witness this great gift of writing.
Treasure Chest is a small size book, loaded with precious write ups based on Divine Inspirations and 21 years life experiences and walk with God by the author. In the most prolific way, the silent, yet loud issues and situations of life, especially as it relates with Jesus Christ are addressed. It brings the Word of God alive in ways anyone, young or old, male or female, Christian or otherwise, can in one form or another relate with. From the title, to its contents, the reader begins to uncover a wealth of experience and knowledge – immeasurable discovery of hope, comfort, divine boldness and encouragement.
Starting off with THE STORMS OF LIFE is the story of a young man told in the most graphic way as he faces a major challenge in life, which included even struggles within his heart and the way God came through for Him. Right from this first page, you will begin to hunger for more and your very thoughts will be challenged. It is followed by another captivating chapter on JOURNEY OF LIFE. The chapters keep flowing into each other with headings that make you just want to keep digging into the treasures the book is offering. With 56 short Chapters, the book makes for a very pleasant read and source of encouragement on the reassurance of God’s unfailing love and presence in the affairs of men.
Topics written about include THE TESTING OF YOUR LOVE, GOD CAN’T LIE, WHEN GOD BREAKS PROTOCOL. I particularly find these topics interesting as it tells me that I serve a God that is beyond human reasoning, He cannot be confined by anything or anyone. There are also chapters on our own role as God’s Children; WHAT ARE YOU SOWING? ENLARGE YOUR CAPACITY, MAKE THAT MOVE. She goes on still to boost our confidence in God with ALL IS WELL, EXTRAORDINARY MIRACLES, YOU SHALL CELEBRATE and many more. All these are just a few of some of the treasures hidden in the Chest of this mighty but small book. God remains our STRONG TOWER and to be honest we can do nothing without Him. We need Him to survive, we need Him to have a victorious life and He has given us the Treasure of life even without our asking or deserving it. He has also used this book from one of His vessels as a great reminder to us of His beautiful thoughts towards us.
Treasure Chest is a book that can help us in our daily life. It can be read as a novel and as nuggets of life’s experiences and teachings. A wonderful family devotional, as the chapters are quite short and insightful. It can also be used for fellowships and self development. Read, see, and experience God’s faithfulness on another level.
