Enough of Me Priscilla Peters

In My Opinion…

Yes, Enough of Me is a Bible study, but there is so much more within the pages of the book. Through this study, Priscilla Peters becomes a friend. The kind that will have your sides splitting from laughter one minute only to drop a truth bomb on you that leaves your comfort and complacency in shatters.

My thoughts

 

I’ll admit that my devotional time is an area in my life I’d like to improve on. What can go wrong when you start the day with God? But putting it into practice (making it a habit) takes time and as we all know, undoing a habit takes a lot less time than building a habit. But I found with 31 Verses to Write on Your Heart, spending that time with one verse at a time and diving deeper into the meaning is just what I need. I appreciated Liz Curtis Higgs sharing some personal stories within the more in-depth studies. I also loved the different translations.

 

Each chapter of this books contains a verse, a deconstruction of that verse, a prayer, and a tip for memorizing Scripture. Verses range from those we all know (Jeremiah 29:11, anyone?) to those that we may have forgotten about but each one is God-breathed and worth taking the time to ponder, study, and hold close.
