God’s Heart for You!

Book Badge Review, Doodle Summary and {Giveaway}

This is a treasure of a book. The form factor…its small pocketbook size, padded, board-book cover make it a special little gift with a big message. Affirming and personal and grounded in Scripture, this book offers a reminder of our dignity and preciousness as daughters of God.

Sprinkled with personal stories that we can relate to, assigned Scripture to further articulate each of the 40 days of messages, reflection questions to ponder and a prayer to complete the daily sojourn, this book provides a wonderful devotional or 40-day retreat, reaffirming our Scripture-confirmed worth and identity.

Written by a woman, for women, this is definitely a ‘chick-book’…although the affirming reminders that we belong to God and are cherished by Him are no less applicable to the male population of King’s Kids.

This is an excellent devotional…and the perfect gift…especially for the women in our lives.

I took a long time to create this Prayer Doodle! Pacing myself by reading only ONE devotional chapter a day, I slowly updated the Prayer Doodle as I worked my way through the book over at least 40 days. Yes, I may have missed a day or two, here and there. Extracting my most memorable message from each chapter and translating my notes to doodles, offered a great way to review and retain these basic, affirming messages. I enjoyed capturing all 40 days, all in one Prayer Doodle.

I deliberately didn’t color the doodle, in case I can leave that up to you…to color as you read the book after you WIN it in my special God’s Heart for You Giveaway below!

Book Badge Review: The Third Testament

Posted: by Monica McConkey

This is my Book Badge Review and Doodle Summary of The Third Testament.

John Eklund writes of the journey of Fred Sankt, who, in the midst of personal crisis feels compelled to record historical events and figures within the context of a third installment of the Bible: The Third Testament.  Presented through the thoughts, conversations and discoveries of this character, Eklund’s approach removes himself from presumption: because after all, who in this day and age could write an addition to the Bible that would be widely accepted as a necessary and Holy Spirit-inspired expansion of our sacred scripture?

I would very much like to do a Book Badge Review / Doodle Summary of this book,
God’s Heart for You by Holley Gerth!
Happily accepting any donations or birthday presents of this book. =)
Here is a short excerpt from the book, but it’s not enough!
You can subscribe to Holley’s Heart to Heart with Holley blog for the whole post…
but you’ll probably want Holley’s book too.
Jesus answers that call of our hearts…
He says to the little girl, “I want you on my team.
I even have a special position and purpose for you.”
He says to the woman at the party, “I think you’re beautiful.
I want to know you and be with you.”
He says to the older woman, “I place great worth on your life.
 I see you and I hear you.”
And He says to you,
“I choose you, just as you are, and I love you more than you can imagine.”
