This will be a short article regarding my book Joyful Surrender and information about retreats I can offer groups.

I have a book published called Joyful Surrender.It tells of my quest to follow where I feel God is calling me.I found through my experiences and spiritual direction that there seemed to be three major stages that I went through to take my vows.As I reflected on these stages I realized that others might be able to use these stages in their spiritual path. I realized that each persons path is unique and I didn't want people to follow my path but their own. This is my effort to help others follow their path. I call the stages seeker, follower and sister/brother of Jesus.My vows are surrender, joy, perseverence, and compassion. I attempt to live my vows daily. They have been blessed by the Catholic Church.I am so grateful to God which comes through in the book.

This is a book for people who would like to find their true purpose and desire in life.To realize that what we have been taught in our culture about what success is may not be success at all. It may leave us with an emptiness which we don't understand. How can we true ly find peace and joyfulness unless we look deep in ourselves and find what we  need?How can we love God, ourselves, and others unless we know ourselves. To look at our goodness and gifts God has given us and look at parts of oursleves that we may hide or don't want to deal with.

It is very humbling yet it is the only way I know to accept or change the things we need to change. It is only opening ourselves totally to God that we can know the joy of being free of the  shame or guilt we feel about our weaknesses or parts of ourselves we thought were to awful to look at.Only then can we see that we are human. Only Jesus was perfect.Don't be afraid to look at yourself. All of yourself! If you can imagine God smiling as you do and saying "yes, I know you have weaknesses. I am so proud of you for realizing them and working on them and surrendering them to me. Being open to yourself and me. Oh yes, my beloved child. I know every weakness and I love you with a love that is deeper and sronger than any love you can imagine. Come to me. Let us work on these things together."

People who have read Joyful Surrender have said everything from everyone must read this, to "I underline sentences I want to remember , to the book was an inspiration. I am SO honored by the response.

I have a review on www womansselfesteem.com. I was thrilled with the very positive review and they said they would highly recomend it.

I also facilitate retreats.There are three kinds of retreats I offer. One is looking at the gifts God has given us, and remembering the love God has shown. The second is looking at ourselves honestly and with love. The third is how we show the love we have been given to others.

 If you would like me to come to your group or church please contact me on this website or you can contact me at www.cindytuttle.com My e-mail is cindytuttle08.comcast.net. The fee is negotiable.

You might want to check out my poems I have been writing. It is kind of new for me, so if you have feedback I would appreciate it.

You can order my book on this website. I have heard that  it is well worth it.Thank you so much for your support  for my book and looking at my article. If you like you can send me a message if you have any questions or would just like to say hi.

With Love,

Cindy.
