    my point of view for Glimpses of God: a summer devotional for women

    August 24, 2020 in my point of view

    Glimpses of God: a summer devotional for women

    Spiritual Seasons are like Natural Seasons

    Creator God made the world in which we live. He placed the moon and stars in the sky, the rivers and oceans on the earth. He also created seasons throughout the year. Each season is defined by specific features and attributes that are common.

    As Christ-followers we experience spiritual seasons. Though these seasons do not come in order like seasons in nature, each spiritual season we experience is defined by certain features also.

    This devotional is focused on summer—both calendar and spiritual. Our spiritual summer is a time of growth, hard work, and relaxation as we nurture and care for the new things that were planted in our spiritual spring and allow them to ripen or mature.

    This book is a part of the four-book Glimpses of God devotional series.

    my point of view:

    This is a lovely devotional, I am so blessed to have been given this ebook for review. I found myself truly able to get more out of my daily bible reading and more thought provoking insite into my devotioans as well. I truly found myself thinking about bits and pieces of what I read all day long, and even days afterward something would trigger my memory.

    I also enjoyed the way it was based on a season of the year, we all go through seasons in our life, and this brought the devotional even more to life for me. I look forward to reading more of these devotionals from these lovely authors!
