Breathe: Creating Space for God in a Hectic Life
Why are we in such a hurry?While juggling kids, errands, jobs, relationships, and church activities, many moms don't realize that their value is found not in what they do but in who they are. If this is you, and your energy runs out long before your day comes to an end, then maybe it's time to take a break and breathe.MOPS author Keri Wyatt Kent wants to show you what Jesus meant when he said, "Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest." Filled with true accounts of moms making the journey away from "living on the edge," Breathe will help you slow down, grow spiritually, and make more room for God. Practical examples, "breathing exercises," and resources for further study will help you break free from the hectic pace of life and ultimately find rest through your relationship with Christ."What woman-especially a mom-doesn't need to breathe? In this thoughtful book, Keri Wyatt Kent leads us to a place where we can catch our breath-and keep it!"--Elisa Morgan, president and CEO, MOPS International"Slow down. Find a comfortable chair. Fix a (decaffeinated) beverage and learn how to live one moment at a time."--John Ortberg, pastor and best-selling author, God Is Closer Than You Think"Reading Breathe was like receiving a formal affirmation from God of my decisions to create more open spaces for pondering and prayer for the people I love, and for the pursuit of my true calling."--Lynne Hybels, Willow Creek Community Church
