My Thoughts On The Book: The purpose of this book is to provide encouragement for readers dealing with emotional struggles, like fear, anger, and regret. It fulfills its purpose well. This 60-day devotional is well organized and includes: A daily opening Scripture, a Thought for the Day, a devotion, and a closing prayer. My personal favorite was from Day 31 - Attitude of Gratitude. The Thought for the Day is, "If this is the worst thing that happens to me today, it's still a pretty good day." "Remember who you are" is another favorite. The author, Lysa Terkeurst really digs deep into the heart of the matter in these devotions. Each devotion is extremely honest and shows how improvement does not necessarily mean perfection. I liked getting to know that "imperfect progress" is still progress. It was also very powerful in showing the reader that we must accept that reliance on God each day is a must, trusting in God is the only way to get a handle on their raw emotions and move forward in their day with a better/positive outlook. There were so many nuggets of inspiration in the book. It would make a great gift and a great book to delve into each day.
