“Good Morning, Lord,” by Sheila Walsh

I recently received a copy of Good Morning, Lord: I Don’t Know Where You’re Going Today, But I’m Going With You, a devotional book by Sheila Walsh, from the publishers. I love devotional books, as a rule, and this one has been no exception. I haven’t finished it yet, since it has more than one hundred days of devotions, but in the two weeks I’ve been using it, it has claimed a permanent spot on my bedside table.

This book is great. It begins each day with a thought for the day, such as, “Today I will practice keeping my mind stayed on you.” It continues on with a short (two or three paragraphs, usually) reading on the day’s topic, and gives me a chance to reflect with a couple of questions (with space to write my answers), prayers, and scripture. I love that there is space to write my answers, because the book doubles as a kind of prayer journal, and there is plenty of room in the margins to scribble my notes, too. I really like that.

The book has been really good for me. Quiet time is a struggle for me, and always has been, and the devotions in this book are short enough that they aren’t daunting or intimidating but are also deep enough that they give me some “meat” to chew on throughout the day. If this is something you could benefit from, I highly recommend this book to you.

I received a copy of this book free from the publishers in exchange for doing a review. Besides receiving a copy of the book, I was not compensated for my review. The opinions in this review are entirely my own.
