From Georgie Tennant The God Who Sees You is a series of 30 reflections to help us overcome the uneasy feeling that plagues so many of us: that we are unseen, unacknowledged, unloved, misunderstood. As Georgie Tennant takes us on a journey from the Old Testament through to the New, she examines the stories of a variety of Biblical characters - some household names and some unheard of - who felt these things too. As they encountered a God who saw them, understood them and called them higher, so too can you. Each reflection takes the reader deeply into the Biblical narrative and offers a suggestion for a song to listen to, connected to each theme, as well as questions for personal reflection to help you on your journey to feeling seen, valued and secure. "For any Christian who isn't constantly riding on the crest of a faith-wave (hint: that's all of us), Georgie's devotional is balm to the soul. A spiritual gem to return to whenever we're feeling invisible or insignificant: for this is the God who sees."- Lucy Rycroft Specifications Book Format - Paperback Published -  March 2023 Weight -  230g Page Count -   145 Dimensions -19.8 x 12.8 x 1.2 cm ISBN - 9781838581572 ISBN 10 -  183858157X

To what extent can we identify with Esther and what can we learn from her?Esther has all the ingredients for a good story.

The chapters clearly demonstrate God's faithfulness, sovereignty, compassion, grace and mercy, and his loving care for his chosen people.This devotional contains 30 meditations - a daily reading for a month.

Maybe you have reached a point in your spiritual life where you are beginning to feel tired, stressed, discouraged, lacking motivation, and possibly even distant from God. You might be feeling completely wrung out. Perhaps the busyness of life is placing pressure on you, preventing you from having the opportunity to rest, relax, and more importantly, to enjoy being with God. And, of course, busyness comes in many different forms, for example: vocational, parenting, volunteering, being a carer . . . and even in terms of church commitments. Or perhaps you are dealing with, or recovering from trauma or crisis in your life. Patrick Coghlan’s new eBook ‘Rooted In God’ explores all these subjects in a spiritual and helpful way to see us all through these turbulent times.
