About this ebook
Shortly after being saved, I was sitting on my porch enjoying the day. Suddenly I felt an overwhelming feeling, a special closeness with the God of Creation. I tried to analyze this feeling and thought it must be a second work of grace I had heard about. I called this experience divine unity. As I spoke with mature believers, I discovered they too had experienced this feeling; it was called peace. I had experienced times of peace, but not this kind of peace. This peace was supernatural. I was later to learn this was Shalom, or supernatural peace. If there were no heaven, this peace would be reward enough, in and of itself. It is my prayer that the readers of this book will come to faith, believe in God, and experience this divine peace.
