My Thoughts:
I really enjoyed reading through this book. It was both challenging and encouraging. As I said with another of Marion's books last month, there are a few ways you can use this book. One is as a prayer focus during your quiet time each day - the prayer can be used to prompt your own prayer on the topic or when you don't know what to pray, use it as your prayer.
There are also quotes and Bible verses to encourage, inspire and challenge you in your walk with God. While not every topic may be relevant for you at the moment, there are gems for everyone in this book.
