This sounds like a great book. The best counsel I ever received was from a dear friend at our church. In the first few minutes of entering a physical mini-crisis with one of my daughters, God orchestrated a crossing of paths between this friend and me. She helped me pull myself together and said to me, “God is the most important component of every situation.” That night as I rocked my little girl and prayed and cried, her advice helped me to focus on God, who He is and what He has blessed me with. It didn’t take long until I was counting my blessings and praising God for His goodness in every situation, even the one we were facing. He is good all the time!

I love your blog, too!! Thanks, Mary.

I’d love to win a copy of this book!

The best advice I’ve ever gotten? Simply “Wait on the Lord”. It’s so simple, really, that it can sound trite and cliche’. However, it has saved me countless hours of spinning my own wheels and trying to put out tiny fires everywhere.

This does sound like a invaluable resource. I’m working with a woman my age who has been in bondage to drugs for years. She now has a child (who has been placed in foster care) and is currently out on probation. My prayer – over and over and over again – has been for wisdom in knowing how to help her. I may have to pick up a copy of this book …

I would love to win! The best advice someone gave me was to stop, take a deep breath, and pray.

After my first baby I had every how-to book strapped to my hip and each time my baby cried I’d reach for a book to figure out what to do. The best advice I got was, “Put those books down, pick up your baby, and start to ask the Lord for the wisdom to parent well.”
