God not only has the whole world in His hands; He's holding the details of your life in His faithful hands as well.
What lies heaviest on your heart as you lay your head on your pillow? Are paralyzing fear and anxiety stealing tomorrow's peace? Listen to this invitation from Jesus:
"Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you
rest" (Matthew 11:28 NIV). Experiencing this kind of rest won't come from escapism, more vacation days, or stuffing our feelings. Jesus Himself provides rest to our weary souls. While He may not always fix everything right away, we can fix our thoughts on His Word. In doing this, we can sleep at night with ease knowing that God has it all under control.
Through the pages of Clear Mind, Peaceful Heart, written by New York Times bestselling author Lysa TerKeurst and her friends at Proverbs 31 Ministries, you will be equipped to:
• Quiet fearful and anxious thoughts that always seem to be the loudest before bedtime by incorporating the Bible into your nightly routine
• Find relief from the stress of daily obligations and pressures through 50 encouraging devotions and guided prayers written by women like you
• Release the heaviness you feel about hard situations in your life so you can wake up refreshed and walk into the next day with courage.
Devotionals are a part of my daily life. I enjoy Devotionals with a Theme. Clear Mind, Peaceful Heart: 50 Devotions for Sleeping Well in a World Full of Worry by Lysa TerKeurst and other members of the Proverbs 31 Team is the most recent Devotional Book that I have read.
I have always been one to start and finish my Day with a Devotional reading. I really LOVE that this Devotional is for right before Bed. My days are filled with being busy in my household and at Church. I like to be "on the go". i am also one who likes to keep up with the World Happenings by watching TV News. The World Happenings can cause anxiety and worry. I also am mom to 3 Young Adult sons who tend to cause me Anxiety and Worry with them Navigating the World. I am just filled with anxiety and worry and I tend to suffer from Insomnia because of it. This 50 Day Devotional Book leads the reader through the Scripture that helps calm the mind and thoughts. I really like the format of each Devotional which includes: Scripture, Commentary, A Quote and A Prayer. The Devotions really help me focus on my faith and that God will help us through the Worry and Anxiety. I feel this book would be GREAT for Individuals and also for Small Group Studies. I HIGHLY recommend this devotional for all! ENCOURAGING BOOK!
