Mornings with Jesus 2012: Daily Encouragement for your Soul 366 Devotions By: Guideposts Blog Tour and GIVEAWAY


Mornings with Jesus is a touching devotional that shares life experiences that will help readers to know that they aren't alone in their struggles. The devotional is written by seven powerful popular women, Judy Baer, Gwen Ford Faulkenberry, Tricia Goyer, Sharon Hinck, Keri Wyatt Kent, Erin Keeley Marshall, and Camy Tang. They take turns throughout the book and each author has something different to share. The devotional contains 366 days of devotions for the year 2012. Even though it is meant to be read in 2012 just change the dates if you would like to read it again. Each day has a scripture verse, a unique story, and a Faith step.


I would recommend this devotional to everyone who is looking for an inspiring devotional for 2012. Anyone who is feeling alone and thinks that nobody else is going through the same thing can dive in to this book and see that we all have our struggles and challenges we don't see coming. We are never truly alone because someone else to going through difficult times too. But God is always there to offer a loving hand. The book is written for women but men could also read this book as well. It's a great book for couples or friends to read and discuss. One of the devotionals from Camy Tang really hit home with me. She wanted a boyfriend so badly that she compromised and settled for someone who didn't share her love for Jesus. She eventually broke things off with him. But it caused her some unnecessary pain and heartache. She helped me to realize that we must wait on God to perform what he said he would do. Running ahead and trying to make things work on our own only leads to disappoint and trouble. Waiting on God's timing will benefit us from forcing things to come together that wasn't mean to. God requires us to wait on him for our dreams, marriage, relationships, and many other things. It's in the waiting that God is preparing us for his special purpose for our lives! We may not see it through our pain and hurt but God will always work it out for our good! If you need some daily reassurance that others have been there and survived then pick up this devotional! 2012 is the year that God is going to bless you with this incredible encouragement from these mighty women. Through their hurts and pain, highs and lows, valleys and mountains you will get to read about their life experiences that became a part of their message. No matter what you are going through you will be able to connect with these seven women of God and their stories!

About the book:

"Be still and know that I am God.” is one of the most beautiful verses from the Bible, but it’s not easy to practice in this busy world. Mornings with Jesus will help you do just that—“be still” in Jesus’ beautiful and powerful presence. For those who are seeking a deeper experience in their relationship with Christ, Mornings with Jesus offers a fresh perspective of who Jesus is (the Healer, the Son of God, the Comforter, the Good Shepherd) and what that means for day-to-day life. With a warm and friendly voice, 365 short devotional writings on the character and teachings of Jesus encourage readers to greet each day by drawing near to Him and inviting His presence into their day. Spend time with Jesus at the beginning of each day and experience His nearness and peace in a new way throughout the year. Each day’s selection includes: • a Bible verse • an entry based on Jesus: His words, miracles, and parables; His wisdom, compassion, and comfort; His mystery, power, divinity, and humanity • a “faith step” that will inspire and challenge readers to apply the day’s message to their lives.
