Summary: Fuel for the Mission!
Review: Tammy Bundy offers what every mother needs: hope, encouragment, sustenance and fuel for the job that lies ahead...the job of raising wonderful people.

In this petite but powerful book, Bundy offers a daily Bible verse and insightful prayer/reflection for each day of the year. The book is pocket sized and perfect for stashing in a purse, diaper bag, desk drawer or corner of a crowded countertop.

In her introduction, Bundy offers mothers encourgament to pray and to turn to the Bible as a source of inspiration, strenghth and information. She incorporates many holidays, feasts and other important dates into her reflections, offering relevant and helpful prayers for those dates.

Most mothers I know desparately want to increase their time spent in quiet prayer and reflection, but struggle to ritualize this into their busy lives. With this book, Bundy offers us a helpful and inspiring tool. Jump in on any day of the year and help make prayer and devotion a priority in your life - you'll be a better mom for having done so!

Summary: Fantastic book
Review: This book is a great no guilt, no pressure way to add some prayer and reflection into your busy life. The foreward at the beginning of the book could have been written by almost any mother today, as it relates so well to all of us. The prayers are realistic and helpful as a starting point for more if you so desire or have time for. I love that the author believes that God doesn't care so much about how much we can quote from the bible, rather how honestly we talk to Him.
