Jesus Calling
Amazon: 4.8 rating with 710 reviews
Decades ago for Christmas, my mother gave me, and the other women of the family, paperback copies of God Calling. Her copy was well-worn and had a home on a shelf in the bathroom. My bathrooms never had shelves, but over the years, my copy too became well-worn from years of inspiration and comfort, which is why I was drawn to Jesus Calling. The gentle teal drew me in even more and once I touched the soft leatherette cover, I couldn’t help but buy it–I love texture. I wasn’t disappointed by the contents either. One morning at church I noticed a mother of three girls who had a children’s version. I commented that I really like mine. Her young daughter said, “I like it too, because it always seems like it’s talking about something in my life that I’m going through right then.”
