The Five-Minute Devotional: Meditations for the Busy Woman

By Jan Silvious

Book Overview

Let's face it. More often than not, in today's hurried-up society, many of us have devotions quickly or not at all. Jan Silvious has written The 5-Minute Devotional for all of us busy women. This five-minute-a-day devotional will inspire and encourage all of us who struggle with too many commitments and too little quiet time. For each workday of the week, all 52 weeks of the year, you will find spiritual and emotional refreshment in these beautifully written meditations. Marriage, forgiveness, trust, communication, love, and relationships are only a sampling of the themes featured in the devotions and listed in the topical index. You will carry the truths you gain from each devotion through your day. So take five minutes to focus on the Lord -- and see what a difference it can make in your workday.

Please change the title!

I have purchased many devotionals for a good start to my day. This one IS different! I wish I could change the title to describe it better. This is like chatting with a wise and wonderful friend for a few short minutes. Jan speaks my language and always addresses something relavent to my real life. Enjoy!

I love this book! I am reading it for the second time...

This book is set up for 52 weeks, Monday through Friday. I keep it in my desk drawer and read it each morning before work. The 5 minute readings always inspire me, lift me up, and speak to my heart. I am surprised at how often the reading is exactly what I need to hear for the day! Jan uses alot of scripture, stories, and excerpts from other Christian authors to provide a message that is sure to encourage and enlighten. I recommend this book to everyone who wants to start their day on the right foot! I am anxiously awaiting a new devotional from Jan, although I will probably continue reading this one next year as well.
