Description
This purposeful devotional guide features 180 readings and prayers designed to help alleviate your worries as you learn to live in the peace of the Almighty God, who offers calm for your anxiety-filled soul. Inspired by this promise from God's Word: "Don’t fret or worry. Instead of worrying, pray. Let petitions and praises shape your worries into prayers, letting God know your concerns. Before you know it, a sense of God’s wholeness, everything coming together for good, will come and settle you down. It’s wonderful what happens when Christ displaces worry at the center of your life” (Philippians 4:6-7 MSG), Worry Less, Pray More reinforces the truth that with God, you can live anxiety-free every single day—whether you worry about your work, relationships, bills, the turmoil of the world, or something more.

Short, concise devotional for a better YOU. I liked it could read and understand quickly.
Thanks to author,publisher and Netgalley for the chance to read this book. While I got the book for free,it had no bearing on the rating I gave it.

This is a very easy to read devotional. It has a bible verse, then a short devotion and a wonderful prayer to get you through the day. If you are like me and worry about everything, this book will help ease your mind and heart. Thank you Barbour Publishing via NetGalley for the ARC copy of this book. This is my honest opinion.

I confess I am prone to worry and fear. It is often a struggle for me. This book of short devotions is for people like me! A scripture, short devotion and prayer all heated toward soothing a worrisome heart. Very good..

The last year has been a tough one for me and I have found myself worrying more than usual. When I saw this devotional, it was something I needed and I was excited to give it a try. I loved these devotionals and the reminder that God is working things out for the greater good. These are perfect “snack size” devotionals that you can use throughout the day to set your heart and mind right and release any worry that’s plaguing you. Thank you @barbourpublishing for the advance reader in exchange for my honest review.

Thank you to NetGalley and Barbour Publishing, for the read of Donna K. Maltese’s, Worry Less, Pray More.
From the very pretty cover, its connective bible verses and devotions, to the lovely prayers, reading this dedicated devotional to women, inspired in me a real zeal.
I have read many devotional books on prayer and letting go and letting God, with several of them inspiring. But I really connected to this devotional. It touched my spirit, and I have begun to truly start trying to worry less, and by praying more, abandon my anxieties to God.
I think any one would be better for having read this book, spreading its message, and sharing its lovely light.

"Worry Less, Pray More " by Donna Maltese is a Women's devotional. It has 180 readings. It is so personal and speaks to those people who struggle with being anxious. The devotional shows the Christian how God can calm you and give you peace. He asks the Christian to give all of their worries to God. We often try to carry our worries but He does not want us to do that. He commands us to give them to Him. He can give us the comfort and peace we need moment by moment. The author writes as if she understands how it is to be anxious and wants others to learn how to have peace in the midst of the troubles we all face. Thank you to the publisher and netgalley for allowing me to read and review this book. It is a good resource for Christian Women.

Keeping up with the fast pace of today's world often leaves us filled with stress. How am I going to get through everything on my To-Do list? How can I give my loved ones quality time when there is so little free time? How can I meet everyone's needs and expectations and still take care of myself?
Worry Less, Pray More by Donna K. Maltese offers 180 short readings containing scripture passages and a prayer. These calming meditations for todays woman urges her to live her life trusting in the Lord with confidence that He is in control and can handle it all. They also serve as great reminders that worry never added anything positive to a situation, and that we should turn each worry into a prayer to strengthen our relationship with the God who promises to be always with us.
These bite-size readings each brought me a sense of peace and calm. Whew! I needed that!!
Many thanks to NetGalley and Barbor Publishing for allowing me to read an ARC of this book in exchange for an unbiased opinion. The book will be available to the general public on March 1, 2019. All opinions expressed in this review are strictly my own.

I really enjoyed these simple and short devotions. I'm a mom of 5 kids and love little snippets of God's Word to sometimes help me through the day. These devotions start with scripture and then provide you with application and often more information about the scripture. Each day ends with a prayer. I found myself reading multiple devotions when I would sit down to review it and highly enjoyed each one. This is not an in-depth study but it opens the door up to study the scripture and dive deeper into God's Word when you can. The over all message of these devotions is that we are not created to carry the anxiety and stress that the world throws at us or that we create for ourselves. One of the prayers in the book states, "Lord of all, here's what's happening...I'm resolved not to panic but come to You, for in You alone will I find help." This is what it is all about and once we are in God's Word it becomes so much easier to let him carry our burdens. Excellent book that can be read over an over. Perfect gift too.
Thank you Netgalley for the opportunity to review this book.

This is a good classic style of devotional. It contains a verse, body, and prayer. The read quick and have good messages. The prayer is short so you can add to it. All the devotions are title which can be helpful, but I still suggest reading straight through since it's all on the same topic.
The devotional is well written and I suggest it to anyone who wants a quick daily devotional.
Thanks to netgalley for providing this book free in exchange for this honest review.

I received an ARC of this book from Barbour Publishing, Inc. via NetGalley, this review is my personal opinion.
This devotion was a wonderful and unexpected blessing in my life, bible center they help me to understand that God does not want me to live with anxiety and fear. I must say that I didn't realize I was a big worrier until I start reading this devotion. I didn't realize I was living in constant anxiety. I start doing what the name of the title says and I've seen the difference in my life, instead of on worrying I'm learning on pray for everything; the big and the small things. Each devotion has a bible verse, a reflection, and prayer. So you can read them before you start your day. In this busy world we live, it is hard to not worry or get stress. But we can have Bible verse to help you with those hard moments. This book is a great choice I recommend it.
Grateful to Barbour for the ARC of this book

Nice, quick devotional for when you need a quick pick me up when you find yourself overwhelmed. Very soothing and helps you take a minute and regroup. A gentle reminder that you are not alone. Thanks to NetGalley, the author and the publisher for the ARC of this book in return for my honest review. Receiving the book in this manner had no bearing on my review.
