JESUS CALLING : ENJOYING PEACE IN HIS PRESENCE - SARAH YOUNG

Posted by Unknown |

  This book is a uniquely inspired one, filled with devotion that treasures from heaven for each and every day of the year by the missionary Sarah Young. Sarah was writing her own words in her prayer journal, but ultimately she decided to be more attentive to the God’s voice and started to put them down using pen and paper. In these wonderful pages are the powerful words and Scriptures Jesus lovingly laid on her heart. Words of reassurance, comfort, and hope. These Words are those that have made her increasingly aware of His presence and allowed her to enjoy His peace.

      This journey of hers changed her and many others around the world forever. It was quite weird in the beginning but later her monologue became modified into a dialogue with the Almighty. This helped her getting closer to God. Now as she shares her writing it has become a blessing to whom so ever is reading it. People are using her messages throughout the world. All this is written from Jesus’ point of view hence the name “Jesus Calling”. This is her ardent prayer to God that those who read it may feel his presence and peace in ever deeper measure.

     This book is a great path to discover what God sounds like, but it cannot replace the Bible. The author is clear about this point too. Being so one can let the divine words from the bock sprinkle our soul. It is all described in one word “Refreshing”. It has a year’s worth of daily readings, which takes us closer to God. The subjects for each day are certainly relevant for most of us: peace, joy and faith. Gratitude and quiet are emphasized. The devotions are short. They are of a perfect length for the busy lifestyles we lead. Every quote is supported by two or more relevant verses of Scripture.

     This is a book with beautiful high-quality pages and readable print. There is a bookmark ribbon for marking the pages and a nice page for inscribing the book. Its size in quite small and this makes it easy to keep it with us and carry it in a purse, briefcase, backpack, etc. This is surely a lovely gift for any Christian. Pick one for yourself and for others.

          Finding true peace and fulfillment in a life or prayer and listening to the Lord takes time and commitment, but it can be done. With the book "Enjoying Peace in His Presence" Sarah has, at last, been able to share the love of the Lord and the Peace she has found with many, many others who are blessed and who wish to share the blessings she feels. With so many troubled souls in the world, everyone who is touched by and spreads the words Sarah has placed on paper will soon make this world a better place. Imagine a world without strife and with a supreme belief in the Peace of the Lord. It's the type of world we all should strive for.
