Review of 'Miracles' by Karen Kingsbury
Do you believe in miracles? Do you wonder if miracles happen, why don?t we hear of them? Why are they not heralded on the news as much as the ?sadder? stories of our day? Perhaps you want to believe in miracles. If so, Miracles: A 52 Week Devotional by Karen Kingsbury is just what you need.
This is a collection of 52 stories gathered from Karen Kingsbury?s Bestselling ?Treasury of Miracles? series which include: A Treasury of Christmas Miracles; A Treasury of Miracles for Women; A Treasury of Miracles for Teens; A Treasury of Miracles for Friends; and A Treasury of Adoption Miracles.
Each week read a true story of a miracle experienced by ordinary people leaving an extraordinary mark on their lives. The devotionals begin and end with a relevant scripture passage connecting each miracle to the God?s Word.
Because of its small size (7.1 x 5.2 x 0.8 in), this devotional would be perfect for your office or your glove box, kept within reach for those days when you need a bit of inspiration to regain your perspective. While reading this devotional for review, I keep mine on my nightstand for a quick thought each week.
The stories of this devotional are unique and thought provoking and because they are all true stories, a genuine warmth fills each one. Many of the stories were connected to scripture I had not read in a while. These are promises of God that promote perseverance, strength, joy and hope.
I recommend this book highly for anyone who would learn of the miracles around us that often go unnoticed but leave their mark on the lives that are faithful enough to notice.
