What I liked most about this devotional was how relatable the devotions were. I thought the author did really well at explaining the verses in a way that a teenager could understand. I liked how there were different subject matters and how every devotional points the reader to the Lord. A great gift to encourage a teen to begin or continue the habit of daily devotions.
Thank you NetGalley and the publisher Barbour Publishing, for the temporary digital ARC that I read and gave my honest opinion of.
Thank you to Netgalley for providing me with an E-arc in exchange for an honest review.
The perfect bite-sized devotions that deal with real life topics and provide strong, biblical answers for countless things a teenage girl might encounter. Rae Simons does an excellent job explaining and connecting scriptures to situations in a way that is enticing and easy to read for young teens. The devotions are a bit short for me but I think would be perfect for younger teen girls wanting to start a relationship with God and/or start a habit of spending regular time with Him.
I found this to be an excellent devotional for teen girls, and anyone else. The title is appealing, for who doesn't face hard times in life sometimes? The devotionals are a page long, with a Bible verse, short paragraphs following, and a prayer. Some of the issues addressed are having fun (accepting joy when things are tough, even), handling worry with prayer, knowing that God has great plans ahead, being wrapped in God's love, learning as much as you can, etc. I appreciate being able to read this e-book, compliments of the editors. The thoughts expressed are my own.
