This review is from: In the Arms of God (Hardcover)

We recently lost our 11 year old son and this book is never far from me. It has provided me with such comfort, especially when I only have a few minutes to read something. The pictures inside are just beautiful, those alone can bring enomorous comfort and a peaceful feeling. I have given it as a gift many times.

This review is from: In the Arms of God (Hardcover)

When your world has been torn apart and your foundation rocked to the very core, these excerpts and passages remind you that you have rest and peace in the arms of God. Trust in His word and faith in the scriptures noted are a powerful lift on the road to recovery from loss or hurt. Compact size allows you to carry it whereever you go for on-the-spot ministering.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Wonderful Comfort, April 13, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: In the Arms of God (Hardcover)

This is such a comforitng book, I am only 14, but I think this is the coolest book ever. The "devotions" are short and to the point, but sometimes it seems that there was one written especially for you in your time of need. The pictures are very beautifuladn vivid, they remind me of all the care and detail God put into making this earth. I just love knowing that knowing that God loves me, knows all my pain, and is ready to comfort me. I would recomend this to any one who is in pain.
