Author Anita Higman:
About the Book:
“Have you ever longed to crawl into the pages of the Bible? To walk on the Judean hills or feel the spray of the Red Sea? To know what it’s like to confront a king or pour perfume on a Savior’s feet?
“In forty devotional tales, Where God Finds You breathes new life into ancient Bible characters. Through reflection on Scripture and prayer, you’ll discover a place in each of these lives of vulnerability, tenderness, truth and love – a place where you can find God….and where God finds you.”
My Thoughts:
I don't know about you, but I have always wondered what the people we read about in Gods word were thinking during some of their "far from our realm of thinking" moments. I mean, really, my Daughter and I just discussed over the Christmas break, "What in the world was Mary thinking, or feeling, when the Angel came to her and said "she would be pregnant with a Son, and you will call him Jesus. He will be called the Son of the Most High God"
What about Joseph? Seriously, I am not sure that if my Brothers threw me into a cistern to die but then instead, decided to sell me, just what I would be thinking.... But I do know, it wouldn't be good. Overtime, would I find it in my heart to forgive them? I don't know!
Anita Higman's "Where God Finds You", is such an awesome book! There are 40 Devotions that take you into the mind and heart of Gods People. As Anita shares their stories, their lives and circumstances, you may see a bit of yourself. It might be though, that you are introduced to someone in Gods Word that you've never known. My guess is when you meet them through Anita's eyes, you will want to know more and more!
This is a Devotional that should be in EVERY HOME! To sit and read these alone or as a family. To share them with your grandchildren or children down the street. Gods word is RELEVANT every single day! I know that as we seek HIM and HE finds us, that HE will use us just as HE has used Anita in sharing these devotions!
