Still your busy heart with The Midwifes Story: Meditations for Advent Times. In this season of waiting, it is easy to get caught up in the tension and the stress. There is great value in taking quiet time for reflection. The Midwifes Story will allow you to ready yourself spiritually for the birth of the Divine. As the title suggests it is a poem about a very special midwife who may have been present at the birth of Christ.

A great book for Advent,
By
This review is from: The Midwife's Story: Meditations for Advent Times (Hardcover)
This small book begins with a poem about a midwife; the midwife who brought Jesus into the world.The poem is thought provoking in itself. But the author has broken up the poem into eight seconds (two for each week of Advent). Each section has a small thought, questions, meditation thought and Bible verses.
This is a wonderful book to point us to the real reason for Christ's birth and to help us see beyond the presents, decorations and stress of the holidays. I received this book free of charge in exchange for my honest review.
