When I first requested this devotional, I wasn't quite sure what to expect, but I'm so glad I was approved for it. Georgia Brown Williams is so real and down-to-earth in the way she writes, and she had me laughing many times. So much of what she shared resonated with me and made me feel less alone in my own struggles.

Georgia has a way of communicating that makes you feel seen and encouraged to keep going, no matter what you're facing. More importantly, she reminded me that it's okay to be real with God and that He sees us, knows us, and walks with us every step of the journey.

I highly recommend this devotional, especially for women who sometimes feel like they're on a hamster wheel, moving from one responsibility to the next while trying to make sense of the journey. If you're feeling stretched, weary, or simply in need of encouragement and some honest girl talk, this is definitely a devotional worth picking up. It's a wonderful companion for your walk with God.

Thanks to NetGalley and DaySpring Publishing for the complimentary copy. All opinions expressed are my own.

This devotional is beautifully done. The artwork throughout is light and joyful and each day features scripture and points the reader to focus on the Lord. I like that it has 85 days instead of the usual thirty. Georgia Brown Williams writes like a reader herself. This book is one that I would buy two copies of -- one to read and then keep to re-read again at a later date and a second to gift to a friend.
