This book is simply amazing. I read this book four times in a month before I even decided to write this review. It is only 105 pages, but it is a lot to digest, and it is a book that every time you read it you gain a new piece of knowledge. Judi Thomases, the author of “Wisdom’s Game,” has a background in astrology, tarot, psychic development and channeling. This book was channeled through her by The Brotherhood of Light Workers. Is that too “new agey” for you? Well don’t let those things fool you; this book is DEEP regardless of your beliefs or religious background.

As I read this book, I remember it feeling like I was eating chicken soup on a cold rainy day, it was so comforting! The book talks about the game of life and how to turn suffering into joy. The book is separated into small chapters and before each chapter there is a preview and an inspirational quote. Each chapter is a gem within itself, explaining why we are here on this earth, and how to deal with pain in our lives. It offers new perspectives on life and anyone who reads this book can gain higher levels of consciousness just by reading the words of truth written within this book. “Wisdom’s Game” exposes the bigger picture, the greater plan of life.

For example the first chapter’s preview states: “Wisdom teaches that, while temporary pain is normal, continual suffering over its cause isn’t necessary. We can instantly change our thoughts to take things more lightly.” Another one of my favorite quotes in this book is from chapter five. “It is the impetus of suffering that always stimulates the greatest desire for change. Suffering, and nothing else, is the abrasion that produces wisdom.” Oh my gosh! Of course it is! Aha! Light bulbs, everything went off inside of me! When I read that quote I felt a rush of understanding within myself. So many times, when I have gone through difficult times, I have asked the question why? Well within this book are the answers to the why of why we suffer, and how to deal with pain in a better way. I can really see myself re-reading this book, especially when I might be going through a difficult time.

This book is simply amazing and so needed for the human Light Workers in times like these. “Wisdom’s Game” is truth and inspiration from cover to cover. I would say, if you have somehow stumbled across this book and this review, you HAVE to read it... no, you have been CALLED to read it. I would guarantee that anyone that picked up this book would gain something from it! Five stars plus!
