My Review:
Having worked with Nancy Rue recently, I truly treasure this devotional for girls. She along with other contributors were able to pull of this devotional in a way to inspire young girls to believe in themselves and live like God has called them to live. She as well as these contributors are a gift! In the devotional there are 365 entries---enough for every day of the year. Each entry has a scripture verse, encouraging wisdom, several more verses to help identify with the content, questions or thoughts to ponder, and an awesome prayer to God to confirm what was learned.
My favorite entry is #127 on loneliness, it speaks of a mom guiding her daughter to look above first to realize she isn't alone and second that God is ALWAYS right there. It also encourages us to take God's word and make it more personal by using it to refer to ourselves and speak it out whenever needed. Encouraging girls from all walks of life to let God's light shine through them is a great way for my daughter to be reminded of God and His love for her. This book was written for girls ages 8-12 years of age, retails for $9.35, and is available at this link.
**Disclosure** This book was sent to me free of charge for my honest review from the Z Blog Squad.
