Jesus Calling Devotional Bible

Jesus Calling Devotional Bible is translated in New King James. The bible contains 260 prayers and devotionals written by Sarah Young. These devotionals were taken from Ms. Young’s two books, Jesus Calling and Jesus lives. I have read Jesus Calling, and have found it to be biblical and inspiring. These prayers have come from years of time Ms. Young spent praying to Jesus through scripture. I appreciated the Devotional Index that covers a variety of topics which are supported by verse. The pages are listed for quick reference. There are also special sections that highlight verses in which God speaks to people through His Word. The bible is quite beautiful with a padded cover, and seems quite durable. The font of the bible is easy to read, and is of average size. The pages of the bible do seem thin. Jesus Calling would make a wonderful gift for any young lady, or woman wanting to spend more time in the word of God. men may enjoy the bible as well; it just seems to be more of a woman’s bible. There is a presentation page, in which a message could be written to the recipient of the bible. This bible reminds us that God speaks to us through His word. Unfortunately, we are often so caught up in our problems that we miss what he is trying to tell us. I believe that God will speak to all of us, if we would just be still and listen.
