I just got the book a week ago and so far, I really enjoyed it. Not just the wordings but the artistic side of it, the illustration. I really like that simple English language is used that makes it easy to understand and for me, such an inspirational daily devotional book. I already read quite a bit of daily devotional but so far this is my favorite. It makes me smile and understand the flow which is so meaningful that touches my heart.
I’ve read several devotional books and this one ranks as a favorite. I loved how there was a devotional tied in with scripture and then a quote or thought pertaining to it. In addition you can color each page if you wish. Easy to follow the daily messages. You might even find yourself reading more than one! The cover is calming and so pretty. A great way to start your day!
Christmas gift last year from sister loved it I love to color Plus I read the devotional and then thought and reflected on it as I colored Sometimes rereading again when finished Great start to my day!
This was good. I liked the mini devos and the space to make notes. I will say that it felt very repetitive at times since it only focused on the gospels and things Jesus said. All were great, but many days talked about the same thing and some even reused the same focus verse as a past day.
This was my first time using an illustrated devotional that was made for me to journal and do coloring of pictures as I studied, and meditated on the WORD.
The author has the ability to choose the right scriptures for the daily readings. The WORDs were thought provoking and the prayers were added bonuses!
I used this illustrated book to also practice my skills of coloring with Prismacolor Premier colored pencils, pens, markers, etc. I was able to experiment in different mediums/techniques to enhance my study of the WORD.
Made devotional reading meaningful and highly motivated me to keep up daily reading.
The only regret - the monotonous headers to color. Was nice to do so in the beginning, but after months of coloring my imagination left me and I found it hard to color the headings.
