Being a devotional, this probably isn't so much for groups to study as a recommendation for individuals. This devotional provides a daily reminder to stay present in the moment and to find God and gratitude in it all. From the moments with our loved ones, to the mundane and sometimes frustrating tasks of dishes and doing laundry (once again). And how God meets us there, and is waiting for us, in each moment. ( ) This book of sixty short 'devotional' readings about thankfulness is interesting, with some insights into the author’s life. She notes ways of dealing with her children, finding God in nature, and different ways of experiencing grace in her life. Much of it is inspiring, and I’m glad I read it - just one or two sections per day. Unfortunately the style of writing is, in places, bizarre. Sometimes the short sentences and detailed description are almost poetic, but at others, the word choices jarred badly. The author doesn’t seem to know how to use adverbs, and phrases such as ‘[she] pours her watering can careful…’ made me cringe, destroying the moment. Still, the underlying ideas and some of the anecdotes are moving and sometimes thought-provoking, and overall I liked the book very much. I would recommend this to anyone wanting something a bit different, if they can move beyond the bad grammar, although it probably wouldn’t be of any interest to anyone without faith in God. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
