About the Author
JOYCE MEYER has been teaching the Word of God since 1976 and in full-time ministry since 1980. Previously an associate pastor at Life Christian Church in St. Louis, Missouri, she developed, coordinated, and taught a weekly meeting known as "Life In The Word." After more than five years, the Lord brought it to a conclusion, directing her to establish her own ministry and call it "Life In The Word, Inc."

Now, her Life In The Word radio and television broadcasts are seen and heard by millions across the United States and throughout the world. Joyce's teaching tapes are enjoyed internationally, and she travels extensively conducting Life In The Word conferences.

Joyce and her husband, Dave, the business administrator at Life In The Word, have been married for over 35 years. They reside in St. Louis, Missouri, and are the parents of four children. All four children are married and, along with their spouses, work with Dave and Joyce in the ministry.

Believing the call on her life is to establish believers in God's Word, Joyce says, "Jesus died to set the captives free, and far too many Christians have little or no victory in their daily lives." Finding herself in the same situation many years ago and having found freedom to live in victory through applying God's Word, Joyce goes equipped to set captives free and to exchange ashes for beauty. She believes that every person who walks in victory leads many others into victory. Her life is transparent, and her teachings are practical and can be applied in everyday life.

Joyce has taught on emotional healing and related subjects in meetings all over the country, helping multiplied thousands. She has recorded more than 230 different audio-cassette albums and over 75 videos. She has also authored 49 books to help the body of Christ on various topics.

Everything begins with at a starting point4
I've been in a hurry for the last several years. I've wanted to get there yesterday. While reading this book I gained a new sense of peace and surity that God is leading me, and He's leading me his way. There are somethings that can't be rushed, things like experience, training, patience, and stamina. I've been reminded that God has the perfect plan, and that as I submit to Him, and trust His ways His perfect will is being done in my life. I no longer feel the enormous pressure, stress, need to hurry, and feel of failure like I used to.

Thank you Joyce, for reminding me that God is not dissatisifed with me while I'm in the process of getting there. I'm learing not to beat up on myself or become too discouraged when I haven't reached my goal as quickly as I wanted to. I'm continuing to press on even though sometimes my progress is only inch by inch, it's still progress after all.

One thing that the Father continues to reveal to me over and over again the past few years is, "despise not the day of new small beginning" I'm thankful that God started me on the Christian trip, and everyday, I progress forward. I haven't reached my final destination, and I know that I've made some blunders, and failures along the way, but everyday I dress and prepare myself for the spiritual journey. I wouldn't accept anything in exchange for the trip that God has invited on.

Thanks for the reminder, it's the little stops, rests, purchases, friendships, prayers, and quiet meditations, while sight-seeing that take place during the trip that makes reaching the destination a joyous one. And Oh the refreshing that comes with enjoying the trip, and the company of others along the way, when you don't try to hurry time.

Yes, I'm learning to Enjoy Where I am (the stops, fill-ups, and quiet meditations along the way) on the Way to Where I'm Going.

Continue to be blessed, and share the heart of the Father. God's Peace Be Yours.

Scripturally Solid5
This book is about attitude. It's about how to maintain the proper attitude to enjoy the abundant life Jesus gives. Yes, it is a learned process because life has challenges. In fact, the opening chapter describes life as a process. Waiting is inevitable. In the process we will always be headed someplace else. That's where the title of the book comes into play.

We're reminded that as God created different elements, He enjoyed what He had done, saying it is good. In similar manner, she encourages us to enjoy our work. "Relish the moment," is the advice she offers in reflecting on Psalm 118:24, "This is the day which the Lord hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it."

She hits an excellent mark in targeting communicating with God in the mundane tasks, noting, ""Secular things can become sacred things when the Lord is present." She says she believes ALL of life should be celebrated and enjoyed. It's all a mindset! Attitude! That is the kind of life Jesus came to give us. This book is powerful because it teaches you how to apply the truth of God's Word to your everyday world.

Life Changing5
This book changed my life. I have read many of Joyce Meyer books but this book had the biggest effect on my life. In the book Joyce talks about enjoying the were you are at any moment in your life. She explains that we should enjoy what we have and the present stitution that we are in, and in order to get were we want to go we need to be comfortable with our current stitution. I advise everyone to read this book if you are unhappy with the current state of your life. This book will teach you how to embace what god has giving you at the present time.
