Sometimes I beg for some quiet time in my house. Juggling multiple jobs, family, animals, and the day-to-day life as we all know it, it can be hard to carve out time just for us to relax.
I love peace and quiet. My husband enjoys chaos, LOL. But when I do find that time that’s just for me, I love to pick up great books and lose myself in them.
This new book that I was able to review gives us 40 little chapters that helps us build our connection with God. Here are some thoughts.
Attend by Laura Davis Werezak – Forty Soul Stretches Toward God
Hardcover
Publisher: FaithWords (February 21, 2017)
ISBN-13: 978-1455541485
A young Christian writer presents a practical guide for reconnecting with God and practicing the presence of God in our frantically busy world today.
Our world is full of distractions that do not promote the health of individual souls. What can people do when they feel they have no time or ways to find God? In her new book ATTEND, Laura Davis Werezak reminds readers to encounter God through 40 brief everyday activities that they have been taking for granted, from opening a window to jotting down a dream. Modern life and technology increasingly render these activities obsolete, and readers who struggle to connect with God through “typical” devotions will discover depth in their everyday lives through each beautifully written exercise.
Like the wisdom Brother Lawrence provided in his 17th century spiritual classic The Practice of the Presence of God, these daily reminders guide readers to appreciate God in our midst today.
Review of Attend by Laura Davis Werezak
I love the premise of this book. I think we all go through a time where we may or may not connect with God. Sometimes it’s difficult to remain faithful in times of strife. Even my son questions Gods existence as he grows and explores his faith.
This book is a wonderful tool that will help re-connect yourself and the existence of God. The author breaks it down into four different parts: Returning, Rest, Quietness, and Trust.
Within each section there are motivational stories and chapters that direct us on how to reconnect and recharge our faith and believe in God.
The author writes with grace and wisdom. She includes prayers to help us find our way. She writes with deep insight and the love of God shines through.
This book is not a quick read, but a beautiful study that you can take chapter by chapter to understand the connection we have with God.
Attend by Laura Davis Werezak is a great book for anyone that wants to get back in touch with their faith and revive that belief. Now available in hardback and kindle ebook format.
