I was surprised how this book touched my soul. Luis Orta is so honest and faithful about his writing that God was speaking to me through all the pages. Preparation for Glory made me remember that there is a reason why my pain exists.

I have read numerous Christian books about suffering, but none of them has made it as compassionate and richly explained. Luis talks about the real-life experiences and biblical facts that make you perceive trials as lessons of God, rather than punishment.

The story of Luis Orta is spectacular. It is even more inspirational when we learn that he wrote this book after having survived in quadriplegia. His humility, power, and faith make us remember the fact that the power of God is perfected in our weakness.

This book brought me calmness when I thought about why I had to kill. Luis made me realize that the discipline of God is His efforts in molding us into something bigger. I now have a different view of my struggles–and it is due to him that I have this view.

Preparation for Glory is a masterpiece of faith and perseverance. Each chapter made scripture alive and assisted me in regaining hope. It is not just a book, but a spiritual guide to every person who goes through difficult moments.

Luis Orta is a pastor writing with the heart of a pastor, and the wisdom of a man who has passed through fire and received grace. This book reiterated to me that God is always by our side, even when we are suffering.
