Daily jolted by the angle of this book
I am using this book as my devotional in 2007, and almost daily I am surprised by the angle that the text takes. I start out reading it thinking that the scenario the author is describing is some problem of hers, but it always turns out it's someone else's problem, and the author is the "savior" of the problem, or the one making the right decision (and we should likewise make such a righteous decision). I don't disagree; the decisions the author makes are correct, but it is a bit tiring to continually read about how excellent the decisions of this famed and powerful Christian leader (?) are. I have read various books from influential Christian authors, and there is usually a bit more humility involved. For example, last year I read a collection of C.S. Lewis' works that had been made into a devotional. I never sensed that C.S. Lewis was bragging about the great things he had done. Same with, say, Dr. James Dobson, a respected author with sound Christian principles. That is not the case with this book, however. I have to laugh to myself when I come across yet another day's text where the author shares what a great thing she did. It's still a book I need to and plan to continue to learn from, but I really don't recommend it due to the irritating "holier than thou" subjects.
The One Year Book of Devotions for Women on the Go
I purchased this book several years ago, and continue to use it daily! I wanted a devotional that doesnt take much time, but really connects God's word with a busy woman as myself. I found it here. It feeds me daily, and I have enjoyed memorizing the scriptures as a result of the warm devotional that the author unfolds for me. I find her stories to be real, heartwarming and authentic. I have given this as a gift to several friends and family. I see the authors love for Jesus come thru and its contagious! She should do one for the family on the go!
Fantastic daily devotional!
As a mother with young children, it is easy to miss having a daily devotional time with God. Actually, that may be the case whether you have kids or not! I found this devotional perfect to keep me in touch with God on a daily basis. Having a fresh voice is helpful and motivational. I recommended this easy to read, meaningful devotional for women on the go!
