I've long been a fan of Sandra Byrd's fiction stories so I was excited to see this 90-day devotional she penned. Each devotional focuses on loving ourselves as God loves us - unconditionally and with grace. Each one emphasizes that no one needs to be perfect to be a much-loved child of God, and each works at dismantling the myth that we have to be something we're not to earn God's love.

Byrd uses everyday stories from her own experiences combined with pertinent Scripture to get her points across, and since each is very short, it's a great way to focus on devotional time without having to spend hours in an already busy day. (Now, don't get me wrong, if you WANT to spend hours devoted to study of Scripture, you can still do that!) I loved how each devotion focused on some personal aspect that might need some work. I also loved the stories from Byrd's family or personal experiences. I've found myself reading several at a time just because I enjoy the short little stories so much.

I absolutely recommend More Than Enough to readers who are looking for a new devotional. This is especially geared toward women, but I think there is something here for anyone looking to grow their faith.

More Than Enough is a book of 90 devotions for loving yourself as God loves you by Sandra Byrd. It begins how we fit in the family of God as daughters, sisters and friends. Thinking this was the direction of the devotions which is the same as much that is written for women today, I found out how wrong I was. With each daily devotional it gradually goes much, much deeper into the questions we have as people of God. The questions of living in bodies not meant for eternal in this flawed world or the struggles that goes with living in a broken world. Many of the later devotional resonated with me where I am in life at this moment. I can highly recommend this devotional to read, mediate on the verses and for looking unto the Lord.

I have just finished my 90-day journey through Sandra Byrd's newest devotional and am halfway through her One Year Home and Garden Devotional. She does a masterful job of supporting scripture with personal stories of everyday life that I find very relatable. These short devotions are a great way to start each day. Thanks to NetGalley, Our Daily Bread Publishing and the author for an advance copy to read and review.

More Than Enough is a 90-day devotional that encourages you to love yourself the way God does. In a world full of pressure and comparison, that’s a message we all need to be reminded of daily. I plan to purchase the physical copy when it releases on July 1st. What I loved most about the devotions I read were the relatable real-life stories, each connected to a passage/story from the Bible. Each day also includes a Bible verse for further reflection. I would love to commit to the full 90-day journey.

A Big Thank you to Netgalley for this book! I enjoyed this one so much, so many real-life examples tied into scripture. I want to buy this one for Christmas Stocking Stuffers!

Each page in this Devotional was so powerful. I highly suggest starting your day with a devotion that can bring honey to the soul.

Thank you to the author, Sandra Byrd and publisher, Our Daily Bread for the ARC for my honest opinion

This book was filled with such comfort and grace. If you struggle with who you are in Christ, this book explains that you are "More Than Enough." This book provides short, interesting stories about God's love and acceptance of us, and challenges us to love ourselves through the process. Highly recommend!

This book is a series of devotions that you could read daily. They have no dates on them so they could be read at any time. This book is geared towards women and encouraging them that they are enough.

Sandra uses a real life example in each devotion or provides context and links it to Bible verses. They are short reads so can be read in bite sized pieces.

I receive complimentary books for various sources, including Netgalley, Authors, and other such sources. I am not required to write a positive review and have not received compensation.

I really enjoyed that this devotional has something for everyone and love the overall theme surrounding the devotionals. It's a great way to start my day with the Lord and receive some encouragement over my life. I also love that these devotionals don't have to be a one-time occurrence, and I can always refer back to them in times of need. I'm thankful for such an intimate resource to help my relationship with God grow.
