Book Review: Clear Mind, Peaceful Heart by Lysa TerKeurst and Team

About the Book:

What lies heaviest on your heart as you lay your head on your pillow? Are paralyzing fear and anxiety stealing tomorrow's peace? Listen to this invitation from Jesus: "Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest" (Matthew 11:28 NIV). 

Experiencing this kind of rest won't come from escapism, more vacation days, or stuffing our feelings. Jesus Himself provides rest to our weary souls. While He may not always fix everything right away, we can fix our thoughts on His Word. In doing this, we can sleep at night with ease knowing that God has it all under control.

Through the pages of Clear Mind, Peaceful Heart, written by New York Times best selling author Lysa TerKeurst and her friends at Proverbs 31 Ministries, you will be equipped to:

• Quiet fearful and anxious thoughts that always seem to be the loudest before bedtime by incorporating the Bible into your nightly routine.
• Find relief from the stress of daily obligations and pressures through 50 encouraging devotions and guided prayers written by women like you.
• Release the heaviness you feel about hard situations in your life so you can wake up refreshed and walk into the next day with courage.

My Thoughts:

In Clear Mind, Peaceful Heart, Lysa TerKeurst and the Proverbs 31 Ministries Team have given us 50 devotions to be read at bedtime. Most of the entries take under five minutes to read, which is helpful when I’m tired. Each devotional thought is followed by a prayer. Content wise, the devotional is split into four sections: (1) Balancing Daily Obligations and Pressures, (2) Confronting Fear and Uncertainty, (3) Navigating Family Concerns, (4) Trusting God in Difficult Times. The topics covered within those sections are diverse. I appreciated the honesty and authenticity of the women sharing their experiences. I found the devotionals to be positive, comforting, and encouraging.

I intend to keep my copy of Clear Mind, Peaceful Heart: 50 Devotions for Sleeping Well in a World Full of Worry for future use. It’s the type of book I could use repeatedly and glean new thoughts from with each read. I think this devotional would make a lovely gift for a Christian woman of any age. The hardcover book holds a gift notation page and a sewn-in ribbon bookmark.
