My Rating: 
Have I mentioned before how much I'm a fan of a devotional?! Devotionals are great ways to get some intimate time with Jesus and God in when you can't spend hours studying the Word. This baby was one that I was excited to get my hands on as A. W. Tozer is one that I'm new to. I have the bible which includes different snippets from his books and commentary, so getting a devotional from him would be perfect to use with it. 

This is a yearly, dated devotional is set up and each month has its own "cover page" of sort. Each devotional is on one page and begins with the date on top followed by the topic or title of that devotional. Then, you get the focal scripture and short devotional from one of A.W. Tozer's sermons -- these are his personal thoughts on the scripture. The devotionals are very powerful and mind-blowing. They lead me to some really deep thinking in regards to myself in relation with intimacy with Christ and God. The final piece to the daily devotional is a short prayer that I, personally, use a prayer prompt.

This is definitely a devotional I would highly recommend to someone looking for a great inspirational devotional. You can read as it's meant to be or just start from page one not paying attention to dates. The choice is yours, but I recommend it all the way!

DOI Book Club - Fervent by Priscilla Shirer

Good morning Gems! Today, I'll be sharing with you all one of the exciting things I'll be starting in March and it's a book club! I polled on Facebook and Instagram and had you all vote and the winner was a no-brainer! This is the first Book Club that I’ll be hosting ever and I am so excited. Fervent by Priscilla Shirer won hands down! We’re jumping into the topic of prayer and I’m a big person on reading and learning all that I can about prayer. I don’t know about you all, but my prayer life has its ups and downs. Now for those of you who don’t know, Priscilla Shirer is the actress from the movie War Room ( which I HIGHLY recommend ). She wrote a book for woman based off of the movie. Here’s bit of what to expect from this phenomenal book: “You have an enemy . . . and he’s dead set on destroying all you hold dear and keeping you from experiencing abundant life in Christ. What’s more, his approach to disrupting your life and discrediting your faith isn’t gene...

VOTW | Isaiah 41:10 - Ever Present Help

Good morning Gems (& Gents)! This past weekend has been insane in both a good and scary way. I experienced something frightening, but in that situation I felt a sense of peace and contentment that I'd never would have experienced before if my relationship with God wasn't where it is now. As I was thinking of a verse for this week, I came across this one from the book of Isaiah and I knew this was it: Fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed for I am your God. I will strengthen you, yes I will help you, I will uphold you with My righteous right hand. Such a small, yet powerful verse. This is a command and a promise from our Father whether we are in times of despair or in seasons of gladness. Though told this to the people of Israel, this verse is still true to His children today. Let's start off by breaking down some of the words in this verse shall we: Fear : the Hebrew word is  yare' meaning to cause to frighten ( affright ); to make or be afraid;...
