\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

For the last month, I have been transformed while reading, journaling and praying through the The Frazzled Female: 30 Days to Finding God’s Peace in Your Daily Chaos<\/a>\"\" devotional.<\/p>\n

The good news for you is that if you are looking for a new devotional, I cannot recommend this one enough. It made me think about things and put my focus right where it needed to be: On God’s messages to me.<\/p>\n

The bad news for me, though, is that I cannot find a new devotional to take its place.<\/p>\n

First I thought I’d do a study on my own, so I picked one up and started working my way through it. It felt like I was just filling in blanks, as I am one \u00a0who likes to write and reflect more than that, so that didn’t work.<\/p>\n

I went back to the bookstore to find another devotional to use as a guide, bought one and tried that, but one didn’t work, either.I just cannot find one that suits me. Does anyone have any to recommend?<\/p>\n

I didn’t realize I was so picky, but most of the ones I found were year long devotionals, and one year is a long time for me to commit to one devotional guide. (Am I the only one that feels this way??) Plus, many were dated and it’s December, not January, so where would I start anyway? (Starting a book so near the end just feels really weird to me.)<\/p>\n

The ones that weren’t dated or a year collection of some sort still didn’t speak to me at all. And I know there must be wonderful ones out there, I just cannot find them. I’d like to finish out the year with a great devotional guide and them maybe hop back into SOAP’ing through various books of the Bible in January.<\/p>\n

So, dear readers, if you are looking for a great devotional to center you on God and help you look inside your own hectic crazy life as a woman and put your focus where it needs to be, I think you should give the Frazzled Female devotional a try.<\/p>\n

And if you have any ideas for me as to a devotional I should try, please share in the comments. I need your help!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
