Book Description

Publication Date: May 15, 2009

"Wonderfully inspiring, Beneath His Everlasting Wings is a collaboration of poetry, testimonies, and essays of encouragement and accomplishments through faith in God. Listen as an author tells of how malicious words that should have dampened her vision, caused her to conquer her fears and propelled her to accomplish her dream. Witness other authors recount their incredible experiences; these journeys include one woman's trip to Africa where she comes to realize her "life's purpose;" and another woman's walk of faith after being diagnosed with cancer. Discover many more triumphs of faith. This is an exceptional devotional that is a source of empowerment and enlightenment which the reader can continue to draw from for many years to come."—Allison Neckles

Beneath His Everlasting Wings by Rolanda T. Pyle is a collection of inspirational devotions, poems and short stories that make you reflect on your life and the struggles you might have endured. Reading this was like a breath of fresh air, knowing that I am not alone in this world and that there are others who have dealt with much worse and continued to keep the faith and come through it. Incorporated in this devotional were scripture quotes that led you back to the bible in order for you to get the full meaning of the story.

My favorite short story was "Faith To Go A Little Further" by Dr. Theresa Williams-Lloyd. They were on a church crusade where they encountered a horrible rainstorm which made travelling hard and dangerous so, they prayed and drove slowly trying to get to their destination safely. While driving they noticed how all of the other cars had stopped and pulled over to the side of the road. Saying a quick prayer of thanks the driver pushed on and drove out of the storm, asking the question "What if we would have stopped?" We never would have known that all we needed to do was go a little further. With that said how easy is it for us to give up at the first signs of failure, but if we continue to have faith we will prosper.
I recommend Beneath His Everlasting Wings to readers who are looking for inspiration, guidance and answers. It was a great, power-packed read..

This review is from: Beneath His Everlasting Wings (Paperback)

Rolanda T. Pyle's BENEATH HIS EVERLASTING WINGS presents the stories of several men and women who've found different lessons for their lives in their walks with God. Twenty-nine chapters by sixteen different writers, each with a story or life lesson to encourage the reader to look to God for answers to the questions in their lives. The devotionals end with poems and also have poems between sections that are relevant to the moral or lesson the author is trying to convey. Subject matter of the devotionals pans from ailing parents to physical fitness.

BENEATH HIS EVERLASTING WINGS offers a solid collection of devotionals. The theme is based more on the broader base of Christianity instead of a specific area or topic for which a person may be looking for encouragement.The basic fundamentals of writing are covered well and a few of the devotionals stand out with style and voice. The chapters that don't stand out are not poorly written, they simply leave no impression or impact. The length of the devotionals is also a bit awkward with some less than three pages, and others beyond five. The shorter pieces require a little more explanation to receive the full impact of the message they are trying to convey.
