[Linda M. · Rating 5 out of 5]

I bought this book because I am my husband's caregiver. Is has helped my be more patient & loving when he continually asks me to do things for him, even though I am tired or I am in the middle of doing something else. There were a few of the stories that spoke to my heart and I marked them with a sticky note. A few times, I would see that someone else is going through the same situation that I am, and it inspires me to be more patient and caring toward my husband of almost 46 years.

Each page has a title, a Bible verse, a short reflection, and a prayer.
