    About this ebook

    This little eBook started off as a small project to I would work on in my free time and has blossomed into what it is today. My hope in sharing this project “Freely” is that is will give you, the reader, a little glimpse into what God can do in your life through the “Simple Things” that we often forget about or pay little attention too as we go about our daily routines. When I began to think about a project Love the Saints Ministries could offer to our readers freely, my thoughts were taken back to the original project and then to the sermon series I mentioned earlier. Our hope with this project is to give the reader a small guide they can look back on to help them when life just simply gets in the way of Awakening your faith.

    M. J. Elliott

    Matthew (MJ Elliott) is someone who is passionate about reaching others for Christ with whatever God places upon his heart to write or speak about. He has served in ministry of some type for 13 years, whether as a volunteer or a minister of the Gospel. While never ordained, his ministry experiences give him a lot of understanding into what ministry is all about and how it has changed.Matthew and Traci, his wife, have 3 children; Leyla, Caleb and their newborn daughter Hannah that bring inspiration and joy to their lives. His hope for all his books is that it will encourage those who read it in a way that help them see what is often overlooked in the world around them. Just as he desires with God will do with their Ministry Website... Love the Saints Ministries... he desires God will speak to and encourage all who read its content.Writing is both a passion and a hobby for Matt and he is very excited to see what God will do with this book and has really enjoyed putting it together. His prayer is that this book will minister to believers in love, equip them better for service in God’s Glory, and build the body of Christ in edification through the encouragement and grace he has been blessed with.

      A Believers Guide to Awakening YOUR faith

      Introduction

      〰〰〰〰

      Have you ever wondered about growing closer to God?

      A While ago, I put together a sermon series that taught about the simple things in life and how they can help awaken your heart, at the time I never really thought about using what I learned as I put that series together in a small eBook like this. That’s the beauty of God though. He loves to use the Simple Things in life to help us understand the vastness of his great love and of the growth we can have in our own walks with God. There are big things and small thing that we can do each day to help remind us of what our faith is all about and embrace the opportunity to do these things more in our daily lives, the possibilities are endless.

      This little eBook started off as a small project to I would work on in my free time and has blossomed into what it is today. My hope in sharing this project Freely is that is will give you, the reader, a little glimpse into what God can do in your life through the Simple Things that we often forget about or pay little attention too as we go about our daily routines. When I began to think about a project Love the Saints Ministries could offer to our readers freely, my thoughts were taken back to the original project and then to the sermon series I mentioned earlier. Our hope with this project is to give the reader a small guide they can look back on to help them when life just simply gets in the way of awakening your faith.

      Now, I’m not suggesting that all it will take to awaken your faith is a little God in your life, it’s not that simple. There are certain things that we must do in order to find ourselves growing closer to God. There are always going to be struggles and temptations that we have to overcome. What I am suggesting is that even though your life may contain heartache and suffering, YOU have the ability to work through the pains of this life and embrace a joyful heart. Life has given each of us so much opportunity to embrace a little more joy and the things we experience, big and small, all play a role in forming
