MY REVIEW:

Holley Gerth is one of my most favorite authors/Bible teachers. I first heard of her when I was going through a year of operations and infection. Her books gave me the hope and comfort that my heart was so needing. This little devotional is just as wonderful and I loved it!

There are 40 days of devotions in this book. Each one starts off with a Scripture then something from Holley's heart that teaches us from the Bible. She is so open and honest about her own struggles and feelings of feeling unloved or unworthy at times. We all have those days where we just can't understand how God could truly love us when we feel so unlovable.

My favorite part, though, are the questions at the end of the devotion where I got to dig deep into God's Word and my heart. I love a devotion that lets me participate in writing because it helps me to really apply what I've learned. There is plenty of lined spaces, too, for my responses.

After this, there is a prayer and then a beautiful reminder of who we are as God's children. These really helped me to take into my heart what God really feels about me and to embrace his love and grace.

I love this book and highly recommend it. It's a wonderful devotional for yourself or as a gift for someone else. (This devotional was previously published as "God's Heart For You").
