Whispers and Wildflowers

How many of us find ourselves constantly busy and, deep down, constantly soul-weary? By striving to keep up our busy pace, we can easily miss out on a deeper connection with God. So many of us are overwhelmed and underfed. But there is hope.

In this inspiring and practical book, Sarah Beth Marr helps women develop a regular practice of withdrawing from busyness to realign and refresh their hearts, minds, and souls. She helps them

- discover Scripture that will lead them to peace
- connect with God on a deeper level
- run to God rather than other things that do not satisfy
- experience less stress and more contentment
- be fully present in their lives

Any woman who feels distracted, burnt out, depleted, or overwhelmed will find in Marr a gentle and uplifting guide to greater personal peace and simplicity. 

This book was a great read for 30 days.  It wasn't watered down and I found it to challenge me in areas that I needed to make changes.  For instance, one chapter made me realize that I needed to give some things up to be more present in other areas.  I realized I was tired of giving some effort to lots of things instead of focusing my energy on my family and giving them my all.  I enjoyed that the chapters seemed a little longer than the average 30 day devotional.  I often find those shorter ones lack depth.  And just a side note, this cover is absolutely gorgeous!
