Lydia Brownback

This is a "On-the-Go" devotional book, but each short chapter is packed with the author's candid views on contentment, which are always taken from a verse(s) of scripture. I went back after reading this book and just pondered again on all the paragraphs and sentences I had underlined in the book as I read it. So many jewels of thought that calls on women to keep their eyes on our sovereign God, as He truly is our source of contentment. Highly recommend any books by this author.

Just one of many quotes from her book: "We can be content with our lives exactly as they are today because God has promised he is always with us. Our problem really isn't that we need something we don't have; our problem is that we don't find God to be enough for us." Hebrews 13:5… (mere)

As far as I am concerned, this author is one of the best Christian writers for women today. With several great books already under her belt, Brownback doesn't disappoint with this one!

Finding God in My Loneliness is for today's generation of women. Faced with a huge social media, workplace connections, church connections, children's teachers, coaches, etc., you wonder how any woman could feel loneliness today! Yet so many do.

That "instant" texting keeps you in touch with friends. Yes, instantly. So many pore over Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, and so many more social sites on the computer. And yet, there is no physical touch. No real connection. I mean really, if you stopped posting on Facebook, today, how long would it be before, or if, someone called you on the phone to check and make sure you are okay? (Bet we've all thought of that when we were feeling low!)

Brownback guides today's women back to the spiritualistic connection that can sway that loneliness we feel. That divine touch that can make us feel engulfed in loving arms. Back to that sweet moment when He whispers in our ear, "You are never alone!".

I give this book five stars.

A big thumbs up.

And my highly recommended award.… (mere)
