A.I have been starting my day with this book as part of my devotional time and it is so encouraging! Sally has a way of writing that gets straight to my heart. She uses little vignettes from her family's life that illustrates the topic of her chapter such as, grace, forgiveness, faith, etc. I have to make myself stop at one chapter. It is so engaging and upllifting, I want to read it all at once. I'm always blessed by the Clarkson's books, and I think this one is my favorite!0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Love the book so farBy Snow wifeLove the book so far. I bought this book for a book group that some mommies put together. SO far we have gone over the introduction last week. It is a very easy read so far and easy to understand. Aswell as inspiring. This book is great when you read it alone or in a group. I would definetely recommend this book for a mommy to read for herself or as a group reading.
