More from Rosann

40 Days to God, My Father was born out of a difficult season with my pastor-father’s struggle with substance abuse. As I walked through the painful circumstances with my earthly father, I found myself grappling with trusting God as a good Father. I sensed the Lord inviting me on a journey to know Him as my One True Father. It was through reading the Scriptures––where I saw the Lord’s character revealed––prayer, and reflection that I found my trust restored.

I want to share the same truths I found with others who may be doubting the goodness of the Lord. Assuredly, He is the perfect Father each of us desperately needs. I pray readers will come away from the book knowing that He is faithful, loving, and kind.

MY REVIEW

Filled with personal stories, scripture and Biblical figures this devotional is priceless. I like how the author encourages us to find a deeper relationship with God. Some of us may not have had a good earthly father, but we do have a Heavenly Father who loves us unconditionally.

At the end of each chapter is scripture to read, a question to think on and a prayer that helps you in your daily life. One thing I really liked about the book was the different topics it covers. The author suggests that you don’t have to follow the book each day, but read a chapter that may be where you are needing that extra word and scripture for encouragement that day.

I really liked the section about trusting God. Just like the disciples on the boat, I sometimes feel like I’m in a storm as well. Looking around I feel alone, a bit scared and hopeless. But God is right there with each of us. Oh that we may trust God with every part of our lives and find unconditional love with Him.

I received a copy of this book from Celebrate Lit. The review is my own opinion.
