Quite Moments for Busy Days by Donna K. Maltese


is a new book by Barbour Publishing.


Everyday we produce wagons of thoughts; someone tried to count them; and eeek the number is impressively big: 50.000!!



These thoughts elaborated everyday by women sometimes are incredibly pessimistics and negative.


Seeing life in a pessimistic view, is sometimes pretty simple considering also the times that we are living in, not just plenty of uncertainty, but also surrounded by invisible enemies, as a virus can be, racial problems and more.


We musn't think our existence negatively: but...How can we change this perspective? Who can help us? There is no doubt: the word of God and... Barbour! With this new guide, that you can bring everywhere! Thanks to this book you will surely receive the best help.


In this book, you will find the most beautiful and suggestive Bible Verses; you can meditate the Word; then, there is a little explanation and more uplifting words. They're for all necessities and occasions. For our creativity, for our success, for our personal goodness, for truth, strenght, love, Peace, Joy...


Absolutely for every woman! for staying positive and for bettering ourselves! with God's presence in our existence.


Highly recommended.


I thank NetGalley and Barbour Pulishing for this ebook.

Normally I would say that Im not as busy as i think, but with everything going on im super busy so it was nice to take a moment whether in the morning or in the evening to read a passage from this book. it gave me a moment to sit and reflect on my day and think about things good and bad.and how i can maybe not react to things in certain ways..
I know it sounds odd but this book was very helpful when i needed it the most making adjustments to my daily life with the crazy events happening.
you may think what will i take away after reading this book, and that is an answer that i cannot tell you because everyone will experience it differently but it is a book worth reading.

I enjoyed this very much. Quick and easy reads for each days. No matter how busy you are it only took a few mins to read each message for each day. Looking forward to reading others from this author.

Quiet Moments For Busy Days is a sweet devotional it inspires without being too deep. I love it so much. It's just right!

Very empowering and beautifully written. Each entry is really short (would love to have longer entries), but it hits the heart and spoke to me everytime. I recommend reading a story before bed and after waking up. To start your day well and end it good as well.

Simple, sweet devotionals. They are great for a quick, uplifting read. I wished for more depth but still found encouragement in the straightforward thoughts.

This book is a great way to slow down and get a fresh perspective in the busy hectic lives we lead. This book is perfect to curl up with a warm mug of your favorite beverage and take a moment of tranquility. This books helps to keep your mind centered and I savored every minute of it.

Quiet Moments for Busy Days gives you short stories from the Bible that will apply to your life. The book has identified moments throughout our days/lives that we can then apply to a Bible passage. It was nice to read in the morning when I had a certain topic on my mind.

Ladies! God’s Truth is so powerful and has the power to transform each and every one of us. Yet, so many times, the voices and actions of others robs us, or stunts us of joy, peace, and growth. We ended up trading truths for lies or telling ourselves narratives about ourselves that are simply not true. This devotional is not a fix-all or cure-all, only Jesus and His power can claim that. However, Quiet Moments for Busy Days can a powerful tool in our arsenal to take back our thought life and the words we speak to ourselves throughout the day. Each entry is short and easy to digest, but do not confuse this with weak or watered-down. Each entry packs a powerful punch and provides essential truths to sustain our hearts and minds, regardless if you are new to faith or weathered through life’s experiences.
I received a complimentary advanced reader’s copy and all opinions expressed are solely my own.

This was a fine devotional and a good one to add if you are looking for something lighter to add to your daily readings. It’s not one to dig deep, it’s more surface, but a good one to use throughout the day to keep your mind and heart in the right place. Thank you to the publisher for the advance reader in exchange for my honest review.
