Jesus Calling by Sarah Young is a daily devotional book written from the perspective of God. Each day there is a short passage that serves as a reminder of God’s love. To be honest, I wasn’t sure of what to expect at first, but each devotional is supported by scripture. I also found that each day served as encouragement to face the trials and temptations that were in my life at the time.

I also have to confess that I prefer “Streams in the Desert” to this devotional. I am more of a narrative person, so I enjoy hearing stories and specific examples of faith demonstrated, but don’t let that deter you. This book is a wonderful encouragement for anyone trying to daily live out the convictions and love of Christ in their life. I would recommend it to anyone who is looking for daily guidance.

  1. I have read both as well and found the same thing. For me, “Streams in the Desert” serves much better as a devotional – I feel like I can relate to the stories on a more personal level; while “Jesus calling” is great if I need a litte pick me up. I always know it will be encouraging and true.
