This is a collection of meaningful experiences infused with God's words and lessons. I absolutely loved the pearls explanation and how they are meaningful gifts. There is something for everyone - married or single; loved or heart-broken; faithful church attendee or in-between churches - it's all motivational. This is on my gift list for my sista-friends this year.
Some quotes that make you really think: "your vision requires laser focus"; "fear God more and people less. As people have nothing to do with gospel success"; "you need to dress for where you are going and look you're about something"; "when you value yourself others will too"; "practice in the moment gratitude"; "expect favor"; "use failure as momentum for future success"; too list a few. I will be gifting this book to my friends this year and will certainly recommend to everyone.
Brunchspiration is a wonderfully uplifting read brimming with wisdom and wit. Every page put a smile on my face and motivated me to press on. These devotionals are a great way to start the day. HIGHLY recommend!!
