It seems like the world is constantly trying to convince us that we need more~ we are always craving for more. Marilyn Meberg is a Psychologist and uses her experience to help us understand our constant craving for more.
The part of the book I enjoyed most was when she said we marry either our father~ our mother or another caregiver. I realized I married my Grandfather when I married my Brian. He is so a carbon copy of the man that probably had the most influence in my life.
While some of the book seemed like a formula that many counselors hand out ~ I did enjoy the scripture applications and Marilyn's witty humor.
I give this book a 4 star rating.
Book Description
Our cravings are written into our DNA. They’re influenced by our childhood experiences. They’re driving the choices we make as adults. And often, they’re keeping us hungry. Never satisfied. Ever searching.
What do they mean? What are we to do with them? Should we feel guilty? Are there solutions?
Counselor and author Marilyn Meberg knows all about cravings. She also knows the One who knit us together, desires and all. With wit and compassion, Marilyn helps us understand our appetites, offers advice for managing them here on earth, and encourages us to eagerly await the day when we will find total satisfaction in heaven.
In the meantime, Constantly Craving is an excellent reminder that our desires for more can lead us to the One we really need, the only One who will quench our thirst forever. Really? Really!
