a daily reminder of God's love - Rated
This inspirational and instructive book of daily meditations is a wonderful way to start one's quiet time with the Lord every day; if like me, you have this time the first thing in the morning, it's the perfect book to wake up the brain and get it on the right track.
There is a page for each day, with a short Bible verse, followed by an excerpt from one of Lucado's books that speaks on the same subject. Though these excerpts are not lengthy, they are simply and exquisitely written, and quite profound. Sometimes Lucado takes examples from his life, and sometimes from people of accomplishment like Leo Tolstoy, but mostly it is just good teaching, on getting a closer walk with Him, day by day.

The design of the book is lovely, small but with 398 pages rather weighty; it has a preface and 3 marvelous pages on reasons for choosing "love, joy, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control". Each month starts with a sepia toned photograph of trees or leaves, which is subtly reproduced on the following pages of the month. The font size is not large, but very clear and easy to read. It is an aesthetically pleasing layout and this devotional makes a perfect gift for Christmas, to keep on one's desk or prayer corner, and to be cherished for years to come.

Grace Indeed - Rated
A wondeful devotional guide by a man who knows where the Lord lives. This book was a gift from my sister Jan which I treasure dearly. I go to this book frequently when I need reassurance or when I'm down in the doldrums. I go to this book to understand my Heavenly Father's will for my life. Max Lucado makes difficult very simple in his writing and it takes a very talented man to make that work. May God continue to bless you Max, and your work of course.

The perfect daily reading book for a busy Christian. - Rated
Every page of this beautiful book speaks to your heart. The daily Bible verse and related reading take only 5 minutes to read but have enough substance to be the basis of serious and challenging meditation and prayer. The readings are extracts from other books by Max Lucado, and cover all aspects of the Christian life - the problem of suffering, feelings of failure, the absolute certainty of God's love. Suitable for new Christians or those more mature in the faith, this is the first 'daily readings' book I have ever stuck with right through to 31st December! As the title suggest, it supplies grace and inspiration. Buy it for someone! Buy it for yourself!

A wonderful book of Bible verses and comments from Max - Rated
This is an excellent daily devotional book. There is a verse for each day followed by some inspirational exposition taken from Max Lucado's writings. I look forward to drawing closer to God by using these daily readings. As for the book itself- its presented really beautifully. On most pages the season is reflected by a tree, for example a frosted leaf appears on the January pages, and a tree in full leaf appears in August and so on. This book would really make a lovely gift, either for yourself or a friend.
