Live Before You Die is written to encourage readers to
follow and pursue God’s vision and will for their life. Daniel Kolenda stated
that God created every single person as a one of a kind masterpiece and he has
a dream for you to complete that only you can do. He pointed out that in Psalms
139:13 that God knitted each one of us in our mother’s womb and we’re are all
unique. Daniel Kolenda revealed that God’s will for us won’t go against His
written word. A gigantic problem some of struggle with is we are constantly
fighting against what God wants us to do for His kingdom. Obeying God is the
best solution to achieving what He has in mind for us. God gives each person
special gifts and talents to accomplish His will for their life. It’s also
important to remember that we don’t need to judge others who have different
gifts from ours.
The next section of the book contains, “Five Secrets to
Discovering God’s Will”. The first imperative one is seeking and doing what the
Kingdom needs you to do for God’s glory. Daniel Kolenda described the meaning
behind Matthew 6:33. This verse means if you are doing what God has instructed
you to do for His kingdom he will add these things to you. If you seek His
kingdom first he will lead you to the job you’re supposed to have, the person
you’re meant to marry, guide you where to live, and the right college to
attend. Living in God’s will is the easiest way to finding your purpose and
meaning in life.
The next part of the book is entitled, “Five Enemies of
God’s Will for Your Life”. One of the five enemies is avoiding making excuses
that prevent us from doing what God has called you to do. Daniel Kolenda shared
that some people like to wait on God and they’re times to do that. But
sometimes He’s waiting on us to take action. Another excuse many people are
using is that they don’t have enough money to follow God’s will for their life
right now. People are often in favor of using that excuse I’m not talented enough,
I don’t have any experience, I didn’t go to college, and I’m not as smart as
other people. But all these excuses are only holding us back from God’s will
for our lives.
One of my favorite quotes was, “Begin to move in the
direction God is leading. Even God can’t steer a parked car! Get moving for
God, and you will find that He will begin to guide your steps and direct your
path.” (Page 140-150).
I would recommend this delightful book on seeking and
pursuing God’s will for your life to anyone is unsure what they are truly
living for. The book will provide readers with a sensing that God has a calling
for them to complete for each person he has created. No person was a mistake
everyone has talents and gifts that God wants to use for His kingdom purposes. He
has an everlasting love for each one of us and He only wants the best for us. This
book has gigantic potential to guide readers into finding God’s will and it
will also warn readers into not buying into the excuses. The tips presented in
this book are life changing. The book contained tons of scriptures to mediate
on in each chapter on how Biblical characters found their true calling. The
book also contained QR codes that link to videos to dig deeper that can be
scanned with your smartphone. If you’re looking for a resource on discovering
God’s will for your life, then this book can greatly change your life! The book
will lead you as you finish your destiny and arrive face to face with your Creator!
