“You enlarged my path under me; so my feet did not slip.” (2 Samuel 22:37 NKJV)

I wondered if this devotional would be a good choice for me. It caught my attention because it was about loss; however, in some ways the loss I wanted to recover from was a busyness in my life that had caused a gradual drifting away from God. This book has helped me to to move ahead out of the indifference that I had fallen into.

Each day has a verse for the day, a message, prayer, insight, life choices, insight and something to discover. I recommend this book for anyone going through any kind of loss; who needs to see the path enlarged under them so they don’t slip. In this devotional, that verse from 2 Samuel is listed as the verse of the day for Day 1. It’s a perfect verse to start the sixty days of recovery.

This would be a great gift for someone who is going through a difficult time. While most of us think of loss as a time when someone we love passes away, there are many kinds of loss in life.

The Way Back From Loss is a great 60 day devotional for those who have experienced any kind of loss. Each day is only a few pages long and is broken down into the day's inspiring Bible verse, a devotional, an Insight, Prayer, and Life Choices. I think this book is a great, bright, and an uplifting read and is a well deserved of 5 stars.

I received a free copy of this book from Howard Books. for my honest review. The opinions expressed here are my own.

When you lose someone close to you finding peace in the storms are very difficult, you are devastate and find it difficult to embrace the void left behind but this books is quite amazing. The writing in this book sustain you, give you courage in the face of adversity and help you out in dark time and eventually there is a light at the end of the tunnel.

This is a great book for daily devotionals. It is not a book to read front to back in a day. I enjoyed the process and this really made me think and process information daily. Thanks

Wayne Hastings in his new book, “The Way Back From Loss” Book One in the Life-Changing Bible Study Series published by Howard Books gives us Reassembling the Pieces of a Broken Life.

From the back cover: Loss comes in all shapes and sizes.

Whether it is the loss of a job, a relationship, a dream or a loved one, the pain associated with loss takes time to overcome. No matter where you are in the grieving process, Pastor Wayne Hastings’s The Way Back From Loss offers you gentle comfort and kind encouragement.

Each devotion will bless you with an opening quote, a hopeful Bible verse, an inspirational message, a life-giving insight, suggestions for prayer, and motivating life choices.

The Way Back From Loss assures you that you are not alone. Sixty days with these messages of hope and inspiration, and you will be well on your way to a brighter tomorrow.

Why do we need a new daily devotional? All of us have experience loss. All of us experience pain, confusion, guilt and, sometimes, a sense of abandonment and fear. We feel totally out of control. Wayne Hastings provides us 60 daily devotions, broken into five parts, on how to deal with those emotions and work back to recovery. “The Way Back From Loss” is not a time-consuming read. Each devotional starts with scripture, followed by a message, followed by the Insight, Prayer and then concluding with Life Choices. They are only a page or two in length but they are oh so helpful to properly channel our energies in the right direction. If we use these daily devotionals correctly we will all be the better for it. This is a life-changing read. It will make a great gift for family and friends.
