5.0 out of 5 stars God's Little Love Letters, March 30, 2003

By

This review is from: Daily in Your Presence: Intimate Conversations with a Loving Father (Inspirational Library) (Paperback)

The gift of letter-writing unfortunately is becoming a lost art?but not so for author Rebecca
Barlow Jordon. Because she understands that ?letters mingle souls,? she has structured her
new devotional, Daily in Your Presence, as a series of 365 little love letters from God?s heart
to yours. Imagine the joy of opening a personal love note from God every day for a year, that
draws you deeper into His presence, nearer to His heart. Divine love and Scriptural truth are
folded into each missive, hopefully to be tucked deep inside your heart forever. Each letter is
sealed with a meaningful short reflection called ?Simple Truth? that captures the essence of
each reading for easy recall. Daily in Your Presence is guaranteed to take you daily to the
Throne of God where your soul and His will someday mingle eternally.
?Lynn D. Morrissey, author of Seasons of a Woman's Heart & speaker

5.0 out of 5 stars Will sit with the classics, July 28, 2002

This review is from: Daily in Your Presence: Intimate Conversations with a Loving Father (Inspirational Library) (Paperback)

As the sun inched it's way over the dark hills on the East side of the Sea of Galilee, I sat on the balcony of my hotel room in Tiberius, Israel. I had a camera sitting ready in my lap, waiting for the exact moment deemed perfect for shooting the burst of the sun's rays once they made their grand appearance. In my hands, secured by my fingers, I held Rebecca Barlow Jordan's new book, Daily in Your Presence...and I read from page 19, "My child, sit down in the boat...I made the wind and the sea; they listen and obey My voice. I walk on the clouds, and they thunder their praise. I blink My eyes, and lightning reflects My power. I hold out My hand, and the storms are stilled. So, take My hand, sit down, and relax."

Does it get any better than that? To sit looking out on the water where Jesus walked toward His disciples during a raging storm...the place where He called them to service...the place where He pulled Peter from the water and his own momentary lack of faith? To sit and look out on all that and to read words from the Father's heart, a grateful response, and a simple truth?

Rebecca Barlow Jordan's work will sit next to such classics as God Calling and When I'm On My Knees. Her heartfelt words will remain a part of one of the fondest memories of my life, The Sea of Galilee, Summer 2002.

I bought copies of this book for a friend and myself, and since then have bought more for others. I love the format: a scripture, followed by a personal love letter from Jesus to you, your response, ending with a short, simple truth. I highly recommend this book to use first thing in the morning - it only takes a few minutes to read a page.
