And here’s my review for “Dwelling Places.” Please note that I received a free copy of this book for an honest review.
“Dwelling Places: Words to Live in Every Season” by Lucinda Secrest McDowell is my kind of devotional. By focusing on one word through scripture, story, and application, McDowell provides the perfect environment for meditation and listening for the Father’s voice. In this day of constant noise and interruption, it’s a perfect prescription for one-on-one conversation with the God of the universe. The devotions are divided into four categories or seasons of the year, but rather than reading it through for each season, I appreciate that I can search for a word that fits where I am and what I need for that day or that time in my life. This isn’t a devotional that I read quickly and rush away to work on the myriad other things that have to be done that day. Instead, the word comes back into my heart and mind throughout the day, reminding me of His love and provision for me, regardless of what I’m going through.
Friends, I hope you’ll consider Dwelling Places for your next devotional. You won’t be disappointed!
Blessings,
Vonda
