I received this devotional book from my friend Lori for Christmas. It is titled, ‘Jesus Calling: Enjoying Peace in His Presence’, by Sarah Young.
This little book has already made such a big impact in my faith and relationship with Jesus. It has come at such a perfect time, reminding me to trust in Him, to rest in Him, to rely on Him. I read one of the passages to my mom and she ended up getting one as well tohelp guide her through her stoke recovery . I would recommend this devotional to anyone who is struggling with hard times or feel like they need to hear Jesus calling…
Book Description (from Amazon.com): After many years of writing in her prayer journal, missionary Sarah Young decided to “listen” to God with pen in hand, writing down whatever she believed He was saying to her. It was awkward at first, but gradually her journaling changed from monologue to dialogue. She knew her writings were not inspired as Scripture is, but they were helping her grow closer to God. Others were blessed as she shared her writings, until people all over the world were using her messages. They are written from Jesus point of view, thus the title Jesus Calling. It is Sarahs fervent prayer that our Savior may bless you with His presence and His peace in ever deeper measure.
