Good Morning Lord by Sheila Walsh

I've heard Sheila Walsh speak and was always impressed by her eloquence and her heart. The book, Good Morning, Lord, did not disappoint. Each page is designed to be a daily devotional, consisting of a main idea, a few paragraphs, some questions, a prayer and a scripture verse.

I loved the format of this book. It would be easy to go through chronologically or to skim the main ideas to find something applicable to my current situation. The readings were thought-provoking and had a depth many shorter devotional readings lack. Also, many of the readings corresponded to stories or events in the Bible instead of cutesy anecdotes that I may or may not be able to relate to. I especially liked the lines provided to answer the questions, giving me the option of writing in the book or writing more in depth in a journal. The prayers seemed heartfelt and genuine.

Another appeal of the book was its design. It's a book I'd be happy to have sitting out on my kitchen table, ready for me in the morning. It would also make a great gift to anyone who wants to pursue the Lord.


I received this book free from the publisher through the BookSneeze.com book review bloggers program. I was not required to write a positive review. The opinions I have expressed are my own.
