100 Devotions to Know God Is Holding You Close – A Daily Devotional for Comfort and Confidence

De: Lysa TerKeurst

Narrado por: Ginny Welsh

God doesn't pull back from your sharp edges. He pulls you close. In Embraced, beloved Bible teacher and bestselling author Lysa TerKeurst offers 100 devotions that will resonate with women in all stages of life by giving you a godly perspective on the issues you face each day.

A real embrace indicates an intimate level of closeness. It's not a high five or a casual handshake. The best kind of embrace is when someone we know deeply loves us, flings their arms wide open, and pulls us in close.

Through these 100 devotions, daily scriptures, and prayer prompts, you will be equipped to:

• Begin finding freedom from the struggles that have held you hostage by learning new ways to experience God's love.
• Surrender your deepest hurts by processing them in a godly way with Lysa, a friend who understands your pain.
• Hear the Lord speak intimately to your heart by learning how to seek His direction.
• Release the tension of wondering, If God is near why does He sometimes feel far away? by spending guided time with Him each day.

Embraced will be a treasured keepsake for you, and a meaningful gift for those you love, with:

• An exquisite cloth cover you'll want to leave out for others to see and for easy access
• Highly designed interior with Scripture, call-outs, and quotes
• Ribbon marker to keep your place

Our hearts were made for this kind of love and security, but for many of us, we know more about the pain of heartbreak and fear than the unconditional love for which we were created. In Embraced, Lysa shares her own struggles, doubts, and heartbreaks while pointing to the ultimate embrace: God opening His arms wide on Calvary through Jesus so that He could pull us close for all of eternity, welcoming us into the safety and hope of His grace, love, and embrace.

A must add to our daily devotions

Lysa has a gift of seeing God in the routine and mundane. She turns her personal struggles into our encouragement. I spent a couple days at the beach listening to this book on tape. I'm going home more in love with Jesus. Thank you Lysa

Blessed

Sometime we don’t realize we need that little extra in our life until it’s given. My friends mom gave her this book as a gift. She then passed it along to her friends as a gift. It’s a wonderful eye-opening devotional with stories of real life with every chapter. I hope you find your something extra! Your worth it!!

Very true

I am a big fan of Lysa. I have read this book, but listening to it really made an impression in my mind. My eyes of my heart have been opened. She helps me learn how to pray better and even out loud. Understanding God’s word through any of Lysa’s books and podcasts has made my life so different. I am not fighting flesh, I am fighting Satan.

Embrace your devotion time.

This book will change your devotion time. Each devotion took me on a mini-retreat from daily life!.

Embraced by God

I keep this as part of my daily devotional and this will be the third time. What a beautiful gift Lysa has given us from the heart.

Prefer the Author to read it.

I truly enjoy Lysa Terkeurst books. I prefer when she reads them. She adds more personality and her voice is more exciting. this is just my opinion. I truly enjoyed the book.

grateful!

Lysa honestly shares struggling points that I am challenged with. Her walking these through to feeling accepted and Embraced by God is forever encouraging to me.

Not as impactful as others…

I’m normally a huge fan of Lysa Terkeurst, but sadly, I just wasn’t blown away by this devotional. Ginny Welsh’s style of reading was hard to get used to, even though I eventually did by the end of the book.

The content was good, but nothing compared to her devotional, “Seeing Beautiful Again.” This struck me as, perhaps, an earlier writing. She would come up with a small saying in a chapter to help you remember a concept, but often they felt lacking, too much of a pat answer. They were quips for emotions and concepts much too complicated for anything short of a full 10-word sentence.

The beauty of an audio devotional, however, is the ability to hear truth and true concepts being spoken out loud to you. Friends are good for this, but sometimes, you need reminders on a moment by moment basis. I like to think that God gave us His Word and tools like this so we could have truth spoken to us on such a moment by moment basis. It was still encouraging and uplifting for my soul.
