Pressing Pause ( A Devotional for Moms) Book Review
I totally enjoyed this new devotional book. Although its written by moms for moms with children at home
I think any woman would enjoy reading it. I did.
I loved the title. I know there are meaning times I just need to Press Pause!
The devotionals are short. Actually maybe too short. I caught myself wanting to read it like a book instead of a daily devotional. But is that a bad thing? I think not.
As described it is what it is. !00 separate devotionals with topics like . . .
Turning Worry into Worship, A Place of Peace, More Than a Mom, Juicy-Fruit Faith and many more.
I didn't actually count them but it seemed to me that more of the devotionals were written by Karen than
Ruth. They were equally encouraging and uplifting.
Each devotional begins with a scripture and ends with a few questions to ponder that you can answer right on the page there is a place for your thoughts and doodles. I could see this lovely book used to illustrate the scripture.
Although I wasn't real impressed with the cover mainly because I think it doesn't photo well and wasn't real
attractive to me from a marketing perspective. I wouldn't be drawn to pick it up off a shelf based on the cover. But once I read the title and subtitle I was definitely interested. I did really like the colors and the paper used for printing.
All in all this is a really nice book that I would highly recommend for all moms.
It would make a great gift for a new mother or a great mothers day gift.
I enjoyed meeting the authors on the website and blog. Click here for more information.

Thanks for the review. Those short devotionals can be so well written that they help turn your mind to a different direction.
