Do you feel pulled in many directions? I know many women who feel like there is always someone wanting something from them. Do you read scripture but then struggle to see how it pertains to your life? Are you reading the Bible but not understanding how to apply it to your day? Do you desire to bring God into your days? If you answered “Yes” to any of these questions, then Julie’s devotional is for YOU! In just minutes a day, God will ask you to bring Him into the big and small moments of your day.
Each week includes five devotions to read and apply to your life. Then, over the weekend, you have time to reflect on your week, rest, and spend quiet time with God. You’ll have the chance to think about the truths that spoke to you or challenged you and the verses or messages that encouraged you. Then you can sit quietly with God to invite Him into your next week. The devotions are numbered rather than organized by calendar days so that you can start this devotional at any time.
Each day includes a short devotion, “Speak Life” statements, a prayer, and questions for reflection. I have loved writing the “Speak Life” statements on my bathroom mirror to see every morning. I’ve also added them as a reminder in my phone to send me messages throughout the day.
On Day 2, Julie focuses on the lies we tell ourselves & God’s truth. I loved her responsive action for the day: to write down the lie we believe about ourselves, then cross it out, and rewrite with God’s truth. I found this to be such an impactful exercise.
On Day 5, Julie encourages you to invite God into your day and trust that God’s plan is better than your plan. As a planner, that is a hard one for me. Day 215 reminds us to trust God fully and not have a backup plan. These were convicting lessons for me, and each day I’m asking God to help me surrender my days to Him.
Make your time with God a gift and a joyful part of your day rather than an item to check off your to-do list. Julie’s lessons, combined with scripture, offer you ways to reflect on your own life and see things with a new perspective. MADE FOR MORE makes an excellent Mother’s Day or birthday gift for the important women in your life.
