Understanding more of God's character and how he loves us changed bestselling author Holley Gerth's life in beautiful, powerful ways. She realized that she didn't have to settle for "I'm fine" when there was someone whispering to her in every moment, "You're mine." The hope, joy, peace, and purpose she longed for were already there, in the heart of God.Now in 52 devotional readings, Holley shares with women the answer to the restlessness they feel in their hearts that keeps them hurrying, striving, pushing. She shows them that "the God who scattered stars like diamonds across the velvet of the universe, the keeper of every sparrow, the maker of us all, is inviting us to draw closer to him. He is the place where our hearts can go on the hard days and the happy ones, in the highs and lows, when we are sad or frustrated or downright giddy. He is what we've been searching for all along."
...notes from my journal...
Wow! In 52 ways Holley Gerth has written a devotional to cover many topics that face us today. Honestly, this book has earned a home on my bookshelf for a long time coming. The messages are timely, and hit the target. This inspirational book could be read cover to cover. It can be studied as a day by day devotional. However, when I got this book in my hands, I looked up a topic you that called me and from there, the rest has been a pleasant journey.
Holley's style of writing and the encouragement she gives. Her down to earth style makes her feel like you have just sat down with a friend to discuss God's encouraging words. The format of this book is just right for someone who wants to pack inspiration into their tote to be pulled out for quiet moments in the day. It is a treasure trove of God's word and how they apply to our modern day lives. I was given my copy as a gift with an option to write a review or not, from Revell. I had to share my thoughts as this book is too good to keep to myself.
