As a person who receives "The Daily Bread" devotional, I was very excited to read the ARC of this book. The devotions are very easy to read. There is a bible verse also included. Very nice devotional. Thanks to NetGalley, the author and the publisher for the ARC of this book in return for my honest review.

I love this book! It has sweet short devotionals that are at just the right length to give you a solid message but not take forever and a dictionary to get through.

I’ve always enjoyed reading “The Daily Bread” devotionals so I was very excited about getting to review this book since it was published by the same writers. I am really enjoying the daily lessons. They’re easy to read and there is a Bible verse for every lesson. While these lessons seem to be very simple, they really do have a lot of wisdom behind them. And they have the same feeling of encouragement that I remember from “The Daily Bread” devotionals. I’m finding that starting my day with the addition of a daily message from this devotional, in addition to my Bible study, really helps me to start my day off with a better perspective. Thank you Netgalley and Our Daily Bread Ministries for allowing me the opportunity to read and review this encouraging book!

I really like the concept of this devotional with daily devotions, scripture, and thoughts. It's quick so you can read it waiting in the carpool lane, or before a meeting to start. It's a great addition to use throughout the day to keep connected to God and walk in faith, wherever you are

I've been testing out this devotional for the last month. God Hears Her, brought to us by the folks at Our Daily Bread, is a daily breath of fresh air. The daily devotions include a bible verse and a short encouragement. This devotional is perfect for us busy moms with little time in the morning or for someone looking for a quick dose of mid-day encouragement. I have an array of other devotionals and I'm definitely adding this book to my arsenal. Thank you to the publisher for this advance reader in exchange for my honest review.

I loved this book of devotions for women, written by women. It is encouraging, inspiring, and comforting. Each daily reading begins with a Bible passage and is followed by a well-written, thoughtful devotion that applies the passage to our daily lives. It’s easy to begin reading this book, as you simply go to the current day to read, Each day’s reading has a specific purpose.: encouragement to keep going in hard times; admonition against sin; realizing that God hears our prayers and encourages us to pray; conquering fear; guarding your heart—the list goes on.

These devotions can be easily read within five minutes, just the right length to read first thing in the morning to set your thoughts on God for the day. I’m looking forward to reading through this book during the coming year in that way. This would also be a thoughtful gift for almost any occasion.

I received a copy of this book for review. I was not required to give a positive review. This is my honest opinion of the book.

Encouragements for women

With "God Hears Her" Our Daily Bread Ministries presents 365 short devotions written for women by women. The daily devotions are short, easily read by the busy mom or professional woman. In the forword Elisa Morgan states that she hopes tht the readers will sense that God bends his ear to the reader's heart, that he hears and hears her, and that she can know that God hears her. "God hears her" is also the topic for the first devotions, tken from 1 Sam 1:9-20 where Hannah experienced that God heard her prayer for a child. The devotion for every day provides a Bible references, one verse taken from this reference, and some inspirational thoughts in relation to this Bible particular Bible reference.
I recommend this book to all women who need a spiritual boost or sóem encouragement in the midst of life's time schedules and challenges. I really appreciated that the devotional is dated and that the current day can be easily accessed in the Kindle version.

I really enjoy Our Daily bread Ministries that is why I was so interested in a book specialy for us women.
I'm very into devotionals, and I found it very enjoyable when they have several authors (so you can see a lot of different styles in writing, is like meeting a diferent person every day and try to understand whay they are going through and sometimes they get you. I Believe every woman can have a great time readingh this short lectures each day of the year.

I grew up with parents who read Our Daily Bread free quarterly devotion books and I knew them to be quick, meaty reads with Biblical references. I love God Hear Hers, it's the same quality of a quick read that will help a woman grow in her Christian faith I love that it's geared towards women and have a solid Bible teaching and verse reference. I am enjoying this devotional before bed each night.
I have a high school friend who loves Our daily Bread and I am planning on giving her this book for the new year and am excited to have a chance to give her one written to females.

I heard about this book last Christmas from my monthly "Our Daily Bread" subscription. I was excited about it then but after reading through it and seeing the subject matter, the folks at Our Daily Bread stepped up their game for ladies with this book. God really does hear us ladies!

I am so glad i discovered this book on netgalley. Though the passages or verses may seem short, their meanings as explained by the authors are actually in depth. The passages are easy to read and gives you enough explanations and of course the Bible verses, to study later. They are thought provoking and encouraging and uplifting at the same time. This is the perfect devotional for busy people or anyone interested in learning more about God's word and maybe don't have the time or attention span for longer devotionals. It is worthwhile reading. I would encourage anyone to read this.

I received an ARC from the author and netgalley. I gave my true opinions freely. Thanks

I highly recommend this daily devotional to all women.
The links to the verse of the day work perfectly.

I started God Hears Her: 365 Devotions for Women by Women in December 2018 and I haven't skipped a day. It's refreshing that each day is told by a different woman.

The Daily Bread Ministries haven't ever been my favorite but I took a chance because I needed something to fill in. They are easy devotionals. Each starts with as verse then a devotional to go along with it. Easily done in 3-5 mins. I prefer more in-dept devotions but I guess if you just need a reminder Gods there.

"God Hears Her published by Our Daily Bread Ministries. This devotional is a good personal devotional for Women. It starts out with a verse, then a story they has application that relates to the verse. It is a good devotional for very busy women. It has a good nugget of truth and is personal. It is not too deep but gives you something to think about when you are on the run. I appreciate netgalley and the publisher for sharing this book with me to read and review.

I want to thank Our Daily Bread Ministries for publishing this pray book and also for allowing me to read the ARC. My opinion is my own, not influenced by receiving the ARC.

Was this review helpful?

This book is a warm, yet short devotional book, that I found rather uninteresting, as it had a very generic feel for it. Also, it seemed to cater to those who are new to Christianity, even though nothing in the blurb indicated that to be true. For example, a sentence of "Have you trusted Jesus for your salvation?" seems to be a question that a seasoned Christian already has answered. There are more parts with the same feel, which makes me think that it should be targeted toward new Christians.

I love this devotional! More importantly, both my teenage daughters love it and are using it for their own personal devotions! I think this would make an excellent gift for a woman who needs to be encouraged that God does hear her!



It starts with a scripture passage, a featured verse, and then a short devotional, that is related in someway to the scripture. A small, beautifully designed hardcover book, it would be easy to carry with you on a business trip, to visit family, or a vacation, or to keep in your desk at work. My copy is on my bedside table for easy assess.



An excellent devotion for women, by women!



I was given a copy free. All opinions are my own.

It is no secret that I love Bible Studies and Devotionals. There are so many to choose from that it would take me a lifetime to get through them which is perfect for me. This devotional caught my attention because of several reasons. I loved the cover and find that it is very inviting. The pocket size is perfect for me to take to doctor appointments because we all know that an appointment for the doctor is just a suggestion of when you will be seen. The last and most important reason I like this Devotional is because it speaks to my heart.

It is designed to be used each day for a year. In most books the author includes a forward which I always read. This one was really good as it prepares us for what is in store for us each day so I hope you take time to read it. Inside the book you will find personal stories and stories from the bible that relate to the topic of the day. I have started this book and have enjoyed every day with topics that are easy to apply to my life. I also like the suggestion of scriptures to read each day as well. The book has a permanent place on my table which I read every day. This would be a perfect gift to give someone to encourage them in the Word.

I received a copy of this book from Celebrate Lit. The review is my own opinion.

God Hears Her: 365 Devotions for Women by Women by Our Daily Bread Ministries is a lovely devotional for women. It has a beautiful hardcover with a page for each day of the year. It is a compact size at 6 ½” by 4 ½” which makes it easy to take with you (if you desire) and it fits nicely on top of my Bible. There is a foreword written by Elisa Morgan which I found enlightening. On each day there is a scripture passage, a short story (in a way) or verse, and then a short devotional that relates to the scripture passage. They are easy to read, and I found them encouraging. Each page is thought provoking, enlightening and positive. Reading each page is a great way to start or end a day (depending upon your schedule). It would also provide a nice pick-me-up in the middle of the day. I like that at the end there is information on the writers of God Hears Her. God Hears Her is especially beneficial for those new to the faith, but seasoned Christians will find new insights (I know I did). I am glad that I picked up God Hears Her as it is a wonderful addition to my daily devotions.

I have been reading Our Daily Bread devotionals for many years now so when I first heard of God Hears Her I knew I wanted to read it. These 365 daily devotions are written by women for women. I was encouraged and renewed as I read along. We can certainly know that when we pour our hearts out to God, He truly does hear us.
There are short bios in the back for each of the 19 women that contributed to this devotional. Though my children are adults now, the ones that pulled at me the most were the ones where small children and their faith stood firm. “A little child shall lead them.” One five year old loved church so much that he cried when he couldn’t attend. He would walk into children’s church and declare, “Let’s get this party started!” We should be as enthusiastic. A two year old wanted a cookie from the batch his mother was baking. She told him not until after supper. He cried and headed to his room. He returned shortly and informed his mother that Jesus said he could have a cookie. She told him, no he didn’t, to which he said, yes he did, you just weren’t listening. How many of us miss what God is trying to tell us because we aren’t listening? But we can certainly know that He does hear our cries to Him. This devotional is one that would be a blessing to any woman (or man) and also make a great gift for any occasion.
I received a complimentary copy of this book from the publisher through Celebrate Lit but was not required to write a review positive or otherwise.

This is a great little devotional you can pick up in the morning, get into the word and reflect.
For each day there is a passage of scripture you can read. If you don’t have time for that you can always just read the verse that is there, but reading the passage takes you deeper.
Then you have a couple of paragraphs that you read and then are done. This is great for someone who doesn’t’ have a lot of time in the morning. You could even take this to work and do it when you have a free moment.
The cover itself is very pretty and will appeal to most women.

This one-year devotional book offers 365 one-page devotionals written by women who write for the daily devotional periodical Our Daily Bread. The entries are quick to read but present something to think about during the day. They each begin with a suggested Bible reading, which add to the accompanying message shared. The topics are ones anyone can relate to, such as relationships, spiritual growth, natural disasters, and a host of others we face regularly. The stories give honest glimpses into the lives of the writers, whose biographies are listed in the back of the book. Some daily readings are more personal, and others are written in third person about things in the world or Scriptural teachings. The book would be a great way to start or end the day or for a quick pick-me-up whenever you have a break. And if you get behind, it’s easy to catch up since they are short. Although it’s suggested for use by women, I think men would be blessed by it too. It could even be used read aloud as a family devotional for couples or those with older children. Its content is very basic, though, so great for new believers. I received a copy from Celebrate Lit. All opinions are my own.

My Thoughts on God Hears Her:
We have used Our Daily Bread devotionals for years and I was excited to receive a copy of God Hears Her to review. It has not been disappointing at all. The personal stories are inspiring. The scriptures that are used are always inspiring and somehow just what I needed to hear.

Quotes throughout are inspiring and I find myself wanting to share them with everyone I know.

Do you need a gift for the women in your life? This is it. This is the gift that will keep on giving all year long because as long as she reads this daily she will daily have encouragement. I’m afraid I couldn’t wait to read this so I read multiple pages a day and it didn’t last me very long. But! The good thing about devotionals like this is that I can just restart when I finish no need to worry about the dates.

Highly recommend Our Daily Bread devotionals and specifically this book. You’re going to love it. This would also be great for teen girls as it’s just a devotional with no questionable content.

Daily, digestible nuggets of truth for women to ponder. Woman today are battered with so many competing voices, it is no wonder we have a hard time hearing our wonderful Savior whispering words of love, affirmation, and praise. This daily devotional from Daily Bread Ministries provides a Scripture and a reflection, written by women, for women. I was drawn to the colorful cover and liked that each day had a link to the actual Scripture. I appreciated the conciseness of each day’s readings, making it attainable to read no matter of my busy schedule.

This is put out by the Our Daily Bread Ministries. I've read their daily devotionals (in the small pamphlet form) for years, and I've always enjoyed them.

This is a nice little collection of devotions, written by women for women. It's encouraging and inspiring, and the entries are short enough to fit into a hectic schedule. Each day includes a Scripture verse, along with the message. It's a wonderful reminder that God hears our prayers, even when we think He's not listening. It's a year-long devotional book. I read an electronic copy, and I do prefer my devotional books in print. I'll have to look for this one (as it's a 2017 release), as it'd make a nice addition to read through again during my daily devotional time.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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!

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!

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.

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.

"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.

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.

When you’re having one of those days, you just want to know that someone is on your side. You have more than just someone; you have your Heavenly Father! He is with you. He is for you. He hears your heart’s cry. And He will reassure you of this through the beautifully designed, hardcover devotional collection, God Hears Her. The personal stories, Scripture passages, and inspirational quotes pulled from Our Daily Bread devotionals will lift you up and remind you that God is bigger than the trials you face.
My Thoughts: This is a wonderful devotional for women. It is full of encouragement, hope, and joy. Women will love this; with a lovely floral cover with easy to read devotions inside. Each day there is something to glean from, some encouragement for a hard day, or just something for the reader to think about. Well written from a source you can trust. Our Daily Bread has been bringing devotions to readers for years. Each day gives you scripture reading and then the writer's thoughts for the reader to ponder. I really enjoy this devotional and it's beautiful enough to give as a gift.

Compiled by Our Daily Bread, “God Hears Her” is an affirming devotional collection by women, for women. Among the plethora of devotionals to choose from, what sets this collection apart is not only the exclusively female authorship, but also the focus on women’s needs. This could be read by other groups, but will speak most to a woman’s heart. Because of its compact size, “God Hears Her” will fit into a handbag or purse, and although unpaginated, the readings are dated by month and day. This worked well for me because I am using a hardback copy, but if an e-reader wants to jump to a certain day or selection, I can foresee this being a problem. I personally would have appreciated a table of contents with the title of each day, simply for ease of use and for concentrating on a particular topic after completing the year of readings.

Each day’s reading is one small page in length, with the Bible verses pertaining to the devotional story listed and the main verse written out. With a short paragraph or two each dedicated to the author’s story and the Biblical tie-in, these can be read in a minute or two. This brevity is advantageous for the busy woman, and I appreciate that about it, but at the same time I feel somewhat unfulfilled. For newer Christians or those unfamiliar with the Bible, this is probably not the best devotional to start your study with, but if you are looking to mix up your routine and want to choose something that is quick and pertinent to women today, give “God Hears Her” a try.

I love the Daily Bread Ministries and I'm always strengthened by the words of help and comfort on each page and in each book that they've published. This book helped me day by day with the bible verses and study I need to live a full and Christian life. I was truly blessed by this book. God definitely hears her.

This is a daily devotional book put out by Our Daily Bread and is a companion book to God Hears Her. This is a small hardcover pocket size book with 365 daily devotions for women by women.

The book is set up by date with a heading, bible verse, devotional, and author. Each day talks about how God see us and is watching us, even though many of us women feel we are invisible. The devotion gives encouragement, inspiration and God's love.



I would recommend this to women of all ages and that want a daily quick read to start the day or end the day. This is easy to read, quick devotions that are read in about 5 minutes or less. You can also, just pick it up during the day or anytime you need that special pick me up and read. The book does have a ribbon marker bound to the binding and you can place where you left off. This is a great gift for any women and especially for Mother's Day coming soon.....

I didn't really enjoy this devotional. Didn't get any of the journal entries done because I can do better ones on my YouVersion app.

I love the daily devotions. I feel like they were so applicable for what I was going through with that specific day! Highly recommend.

I Love this book to read every day as a devotion. Not only does it give relevant readings from the Bible but also has short but important examples in real life. My Father use to send “Our Daily Bread” pamphlets for me to read when he was alive and this reminds me of that but even a little better because it touches on what I personally am feeling so many times. Thank you Netgalley and the publisher for letting me have a copy of this book.

This looks very similar to the previous devotional that I reviewed by the same publisher entitled God Sees Her.

Each page starts with a Bible passage to read, then a story and experience which is then somehow linked to the teaching of the day's verses.

Like God Sees Her, God Hears Her is a great companion for our quiet time with the Lord!

Thank you Netgalley and Our Daily Bread Publishing for the ARC. Sorry this was late.

I love this Devotional. Our FB devotional group went through this a couple of years ago, reading one devotion a day and discussing it. Each day, it seemed to be just what we needed for that day! I appreciate having Devotionals like this. They give you a fresh start each day.

I thank Netgalley and the publisher, Our Daily Bread for a copy of this Devotional. The opinions here are mine only.

A devotional by Our Daily Bread Ministries that has a story and bible verse. It has 365 days for women who need to be reminded that God is there for her. It will be a good purchase for a personal library.

This novel helped me maintain my beliefs and pray more. The quotes from the biblical stories and break down designated with me in various points this year.

This devotional book helps remind us we aren't alone. Life has been a struggle and I can sometimes forget that no matter what God is still with me through it all.He will never leave nor forsake me. Inspiration, empowering and uplifting.

This was a wonderful collection of daily devotions. Every day included a thought provoking devotion that really sat with me for the rest of the day.

I want to thank the author and Netgalley for gifting me this 365 devotions. Obviously I wont finish this until the end of 2021, but this is the kind of devotions you will use year after year. So far I am almost a month in and I just love the messages and the scripture that the author choose for each day is really good. I am going to go ahead and give my review. Christian women will love this and cherish it everyday and like I said before year after year.

I cannot wait to start this devotional for 2018! I've looked at it some and I love the layout. It's just like the Our Daily Bread layout. You get a brief story that goes along with the scripture of the day. It's a compact book so it's easy for me to keep in a little basket by my chair for morning devotional time. I'm so excited about it because I'm a woman who likes some "meat" with her devotionals, not that fluffy stuff! This is the PERFECT combo. It has great biblical foundation + inspirational story + it's pretty! :) I'll update my review after reading it through next year, Lord willing.

This was a beautiful collection of devotions. Not very in-depth if you're looking for something to really delve into, but if you're looking for a quick pick-me-up, it's quite lovely.

God Hears Her: 365 Devotions for Women by Women by Our Daily Bread Ministries was a great read and offered thought-provoking insight for daily living.

I am always in search of a good devotional and this one did not disappoint. It helped me to dive deeper into the Word and think about how to apply the daily devotionals to my life. Our Daily Bread ministries has many types of devotionals that are all good when trying to understand how to apply God's word to our daily lives.

Such a lovely book. The content is great and really gets you thinking and develop an appreciation for the Word. This book really does meet the mark.

These devotionals are excellent. The language is very simple, as are the reflections. But it can be quite profound, if that's what you need to hear at the moment.

Thank you for giving me the opportunity to read this book. The cover was the first thing that cought my eye. It is beautiful. Personally, I didn't get many great messages from this book, but it is definitely well written and has unique entries for each day. What was nice was that the section for each day was written by different people. It gave more depth and scope to the messages. I would totally recommend this to everyone.

What a refreshing, beautiful devotional book! It was organized for each day to the T. Easy to follow. Very female motivated, so I would't recommend for men or children. I think this book is empowering to me, and I look forward to reading more of them.
