Author Dianne Horne provides life changing guidance through spiritual growth in Looking Through the Lens of . . . God's Word - God's Will - God's Ways ($17.99, paperback, 9781662881138; $8.99, e-book, 9781662881145).
Horne knows from experience that God blesses the efforts of his followers in whatever way they express. She explains that God can use anything as she’s witnessed in her walk of more than four decades, seeing Him take the smallest and most meaningless act of outreach/sharing and multiplying it magnificently.
She challenges readers to not settle for the “ordinary” in their lives. Her book aims to invigorate readers with a brand new “perspective” for living on-purpose, and with a vibrant practical passion that God can use. Horne guides readers to see how God uses “ordinary events of one’s circumstances” for His marvelous purposes.
When asked what inspired the author to write this book, Horne said, “I felt prompted by God, through a good number of friends, to write how God could and would use our ‘ordinary events of life’ if we’d give Him something to work with. Many Christians feel inadequate in the area of evangelism. They have embraced a false idea that God only wants “big things” from our life. The Bible never says that. God takes “our ordinary” and makes it “extraordinary” for His purposes and plans. It’s being faithful in the tiny ways and seeing what God does with them.”
Dianne Horne has lived life as an adventure, though not the high energy, adrenaline-pumping kind, but one of gentleness, kindness, and discovery, based on her relationship with Jesus Christ. Her complete surrender to God enables her to tell others of His care, love, forgiveness, faithfulness, and moment-by-moment presence, which has carried her when she could have fallen apart but was instead given a joy she cannot describe. While Horne has spoken at women’s groups, retreats, and as a conference speaker, she has found that weakness is her greatest strength, and finds oxygen and joy in eating, laughing, and talking about the Lord. During these years, Horne has discovered her passion: Living out her expression of God in the ordinary events of life, by seizing every opportunity to let people know how special they are to Him and releasing them to be similar expressions by His grace.
