Dwelling In His Presence~ Book Review

 

Dwelling In His Presence by Cynthia Heald is a 30 day devotional for women.  In her newest book, Ms. Heald explores intimacy with God.

In this inspiring devotional, popular author and Bible teacher Cynthia Heald guides you into God’s Word to explore His relentless, passionate pursuit of those He loves. (Back cover)

Cynthia Heald takes her readers through God’s invitation to us to come to Him, to abide in Him through our need to acknowled ge Him and invite Him into our lives. She writes about living without fear and trusting fully in the Lord.  She talks about the importance of daily communing with the Lord and dwelling in His presence by reading the Bible and praying fervently.

One of my favorite days was Day 19. This day focuses on Jeremiah 6:16 which talks about looking for the ancient paths that lead to good and going that way.

The path that is paved with truth and leads to goodness is the path that Jesus trod.  Jesus emphatically proclaimed, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one can come to the Father except through me” (John 14:6 NLT). The only path worth choosing is the eternal path that leads to God.  The only path that offers rest in the one to His heart (pg 113).

I have always enjoyed studies by Cynthia Heald and this one was no exception.  If you are desiring to draw closer to the Lord, this devotional, along with your Bible, is a wonderful foundation upon which to build.
