5.0 out of 5 stars DAILY STRENGTH FOR DAILY NEEDS, November 26, 1999

By	Kate Mackie (Fort Worth, Texas) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Daily Strength for Daily Needs (Paperback)

I can't begin to count the many times this daily devotional has given me patience, guidance, comfort, strength, etc..... Years ago, I began dog-earring the best readings..... Now, about 75% of the book is dog-earred......I guess I'll use sticky tabs now!

5.0 out of 5 stars One of the best devotionals ever-and a bargain!, November 15, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Daily Strength for Daily Needs (Paperback)

This is a book that has come in and out of my life over and over again because of its ability to quiet my anxious mind and strengthen my weak faith. It is a selection of thoughts from 17th and 18th century spiritual writers from the pietist and quietist traditions. One would never know that, however, since each page still burns with relevancy for any troubled soul. Devotionals come and go but this one has stood the test of time. For 8$, this cannot be beat. You may wonder how you ever got along without it!
