I absolutely love this devotional. I love the scripture verses and the way the devotional pieces themselves illustrate the verses. I would definitely buy this book for myself and for friends!

As a millennial Catholic girl, I look for daily devotionals which:
- talk about modern issues of real women like me
- are not condescending
- don't require loads of my time
- are as aesthetically pleasing as possible
- are feminine and instagrammable.

"God Hears Her" checks all the boxes - and offers much more The pretty font, floral cover and neat organization drew me in, but I stayed for the content. I find reaching for the Bible on a daily basis a little too intimidating, so the Biblical verses and stories that go along with them are a much better alternative for me at this point in my life. I also really appreciated that it was written by a number of women authors who made their entries relatable to someone like me.

The only wish I had is for this book to be prettier - after all, a daily devotional is something you constantly look at for a full year. I would have loved to see floral or similarly pretty illustrations after every month. I also think it would have benefited from extra pages for notetaking.

*Thank you to the Publisher for providing me with a free copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

"God Hears Her" is a devotional based on the story of Hannah in the book of Samuel in the Bible. This has always been one of my favorite Bible stories growing up. These devotionals have been very timely for me with personal things I have been going through the past 3 years. So far the devotionals are very encouraging.

Thank you NetGalley for a copy of this to review.

An inspirational and wonderful daily devotional book for women. Each day a Title, Bible verse, and an inspirational short story relatable to women. For example, on April 18, 'Not Fear but Faith' Numbers 13:25-14:9. Highly recommended for daily devotions for women of all ages.
I reviewed a copy of the book through NetGalley.

Great daily devotional book. Beautiful cover and uplifting message! All of the devotionals really helped me grow closer to the Lord. I would recommend this book to anyone who is just starting to learn about God.

I would like to thank Our Daily Bread Ministries publishing for letting me review this book, especially in a time, when there's so much uncertainty in the world. This book shows how God hears our cry and He is there in our times of need. What a wonderful devotional book, where women share their thoughts on how they have heard God in their lives.

This is a great devotional that brings motivation and peace to each day! Each day brings a diffferent author showing different perspectives on their passage. In the Kindle edition, the bible passage is even linked to Bible Gateway, which I love when I don't have my bible readily available!

As I read this book, we are in week 4 of self-quarantine from Coronavirus. This book has been a God-send for me.

Here are a year's worth of devotionals that remind us that God cares for us - and it is prefaced with examples in the Bible where it specifically says that God SAW a woman and her plight.

We can be assured that He also sees us.

Each devotion is short and to the point. I found that reading one was not enough. With so much time on my hands, I kept reading. This will be a useful devotional for me for years to come.

At the same time, I have been reading the companion book. God Hears Her. My review of both books is nearly identical as both are well worth the read!

I love this devotional book and it is just what I needed in this time of national crisis. I find myself feeling very anxious and then I read devotions from this book which calm me. I think this book would make an excellent gift
Many thanks to Our Daily Bread Publishing and to NetGalley for providing me with a galley in exchange for my honest opinion.

What a wonderful way to connect with God. This daily devotional is aimed at women, but men could also gain from the readings. Each day starts with a Bible passage, which in the e-version is easier accessed by a click. The devotionals are short but thought-provoking. I have found this is a great way to start my day. However, the offerings could be read any time of the day. I will be purchasing my daughter a copy.

If you're familiar with the Our Daily Bread devotionals, you'll know what to expect with this. These are very short devotionals usually with just a few verses followed by a story that relates to the concept in the verses. These are by no means in-depth but are a great addition to your devotional time. This devotional would be great for someone who doesn't like to read a whole lot but is trying to start a devotional time or a mom with little ones who doesn't have a lot of time to give to devotions at this stage in her life. Also, if you're trying to do a Word before world time in the morning, these are quick, but give you a verse and thought to meditate on in the morning.

These daily devotionals have been great at giving me a little bit of God's Word every morning. I have been enjoying starting my day in the Word and these are quick to read. Even though they are quick to read, I don't feel like I'm missing out on anything. I think these are written in an approachable manner that anybody can read them. I am a huge fan of Our Daily Bread devotionals so I am excited to continue reading more of them.

Beautiful 365 day devotional for women reminding us that God does hear our hearts. This is a wonderful devotional book to read. Its well written and easy to read.
Thank you NetGalley and Our Daily Bread Publishing for letting me read this devotional. I read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are of my own.

This is an amazing devotional. I love that there is a devotional for every single day. It's important for mothers, and women in general, to have something they can read every single day, if they want. As a mother to four, I love having devotionals I can sit down with to refresh my mind and help my heart feel encouraged. Motherhood can really take it out of me, sometimes!

I love the color of this book and the layout. I think it's a great addition to your library of devotionals to cycle in every few years, or to do every year, if that is what you like. I will definitely be purchasing some of these as gifts for the women in my life.

I really enjoyed reading this devotional. It is a compilation of daily devotions published by Our Daily Bread Ministries. It is 365 devotions written for women by women who can share in and understand our daily struggles and walk with the Lord. This devotional gives us a look at individual stories and scripture that shows us that God never leaves us, is always there for us and hears us when we call out.
It starts January 1 and goes until December 31 and is a perfect way to take five minutes out of our day to spend it quietly with our Lord.

I was given an ARC from the author/publisher. All conclusions are mine and mine alone.

God Hears Her: 365 Devotions for Women by Women is a heartfelt devotion from Our Daily Bread. Each daily selection is short and does not take a long time to complete. It is a lovely devotional for any woman,

The day’s reading has a title, short scripture to read, a key verse is listed, and then a well written devotional ties it together. If you have ever read Our Daily Bread this will look familiar. The story applies the scripture to our lives and is encouraging.

The dates are listed so it is simple to pick up this book and begin reading it at any day of the year. There is a wide variety of daily themes for inspiration. Encouragement in hard times, admonition against sin, realizing that God hears our prayers, conquering fear, guarding our hearts, are just a few of the many topics covered.

I love this beautifully covered, thought provoking book. Its devotions can be easily read within five minutes. This provides the perfect way to begin or end your day. I highly recommend it. It would make a thoughtful gift for any occasion, holiday, or as a “just because” gift. 5 star rating from me! A copy was provided by Celebrate Lit but these are my own, honest words.

NICE ADDITION TO YOUR DAILY STUDY

If you are looking for something simple and thought provoking to add to your daily Bible reading, than this would be a nice companion. The words of each author are touching while the scripture readings challenge you to dig a little deeper.

I don’t typically add devotionals like this to my regular quiet times. I like challenging devotionals most of the time. Lately, I have had a lot of challenges in life and I needed something simpler to guide my readings. Each day felt like a little hug as I read the words these ladies put to paper for us. I knew most of the passages but the reminders where just right.

**I was provided a copy of this book from the publisher through CelebrateLit. These thoughts are entirely my own and the positive view is not required.
