The You God Planned    by Steve Goss Order:  USA  Can Monarch, 2008 (2008) Softcover     Reviewed by Leslie McKee Subtitled 'Don't Let Anything or Anyone Hold You Back,' this is the fourth book in the Freedom in Christ Discipleship series. It can be read alone or as part of the thirteen week program. The focus in this book is on the fact that nothing / no-one can stop you from becoming the person God designed you to be. God has a measurable, achievable goal for every person and He will gift you as needed. The author lists Bible verses that can help us in identifying God's goals, which always start with faith. Our emotions are linked to our goals. According to the author, anger can highlight a blocked goal, anxiety can highlight an uncertain goal, and depression can highlight an impossible goal. We should not try to be anyone but the person God designed us to be. Success is defined as 'accepting God's goal for our lives' and fulfillment is when we 'grow where we're planted.' It is important to remember that peace and security are only found in Christ because things can not bring lasting happiness. The You God Planned contains principles that are easy to understand and apply. It helps you put into perspective what matters in life.
