This devotional is a blessing! There are 180 devotional a page long, so they are short and meaningful. They start with a Bible verse, then short paragraphs making application, and end with a prayer. One devotional described how we can ask Jesus to be our Lord and Savior, to acknowledge God as King and Creator of the universe, asking Him to come and live within our hearts and take control of our lives. One describes how God can take our tiny (mustard) seed to grow it into something magnificent. Another one that I also liked reminded us not to be easily distracted by "bright and shiny objects" but to have perspective to shape our lives. The devotions are life-changing!
I appreciate the publishing company for allowing me to read this advanced copy. My thoughts and opinions are my own.

Thank you to NetGalley and Barbour Publishing for the opportunity to read this book.

This devotional shows us just how much Jesus adores us and it tells us that He is always with us. It is such a comforting and reassuring devotional. It made me feel safe and loved.

"Jesus is the best counselor of all. And talk about amazing advice! If you have a question, He has an answer. If you have a
need, He has a solution. If you’re feeling stuck, He’s powerful (and gracious) enough to lift you from the quicksand and place your feet on solid ground."

I think this will be a short, sweet addition to a deeper devotional, tuck it away in your car for those few minutes before you head into work, waiting in the school pickup line, etc to just get a sweet nugget of truth for encouragement.

Loved reading the inspirational devotion book for women. Starts with a verse, then a devotional reading, and ending in prayer. Highly recommended and wonderfully written.
