365 Spirit-Lifting Devotions for Women

by Guideposts (Editor)

365 first-person devotionals, written by women for women, from the editors of Daily Guideposts, America’s favorite devotional for more than 35 years. Here are specially-chosen devotional entries for each day of the year from such Daily Guideposts favorites as Debbie Macomber, Sue Monk Kidd, Marion Bond West and Sharon Ewell Foster. With warmth, honesty and even a bit of humor, these reflections look at all the aspects of a woman’s life— at work, at home, married or on her own, as a daugher, mother or grandmother—through the eyes of faith. Each devotional contains a short Scripture, a true, first-person anecdote, told in an informal, conversational style, that shares the ways God speaks to women in the ordinary events of life, and a brief prayer to focus the reader’s own prayers and put the day’s message to work in her own life.

Finished this one this morning. On the whole, a book of welcome reminders. Occasionally, things get a wee bit too...evangelical? for me, but on the whole it did the trick.

Some notable names in there like Debbie Macomber.

365 Nuggets to chew on or admire

I enjoyed the short reading every day. Some days reached me more than others, depending on my circumstances. Sometimes the message felt shallow but that could be that I didn’t take the time to contemplate it enough to find the core. This would be a good book to gift to a new Christian or even a not yet Christian.

Turn a page a day for Comfort & Some Laughs

I am so glad I found this book. It has been an amazing assist to my mornings. I have a list of books that I read from each day. This one is on the top of my list and today I must buy the new one. I can’t go one day without reading this book. Happy new year and blessings to come

Easy morning reading

Nothing too deep or too complicated. Just a short thought to begin the day. Not the best devotional I've ever read, but worth reading in addition to other things.

Inspiration everyday

This devotional for women is a wonderful gift. The story's, the life lived through the stories and The Bible comes through so clearly in such a diverse way it makes you want to be joyful everyday that the Lord has given you!

I will be looking for this Devotional again.

I got a lot of Spiritual guidance, & scripture out of this Devotional for 2022. It was a good one to use for my bedtime reading. It wasn't to long, but a lot of guidance.

I've always loved my Guideposts daily devotionals and this one was great too. However, I did miss the pictures of the authors; I always like reading their bios and seeing their pictures as many seem like old friends after reading their devotionals for years.

"Daily Guideposts: 365 Spirit-lifting Devotions for Women" 🌟🌟🌟

Genre: Christian devotional for women

This is the classic Daily Guideposts story telling style. Features analogies from famous authors, ministers and other public figures. Sweet and relatable but it didn't impact my daily life.
