NONFICTION BOOK REVIEW #2020-026 - February is Love: Women's Daily Devotional


DEVOTIONS DEVOTIONS - FEBRUARY IS THE MONTH OF LOVE SO WHY NOT A DEVOTION BOOK ABOUT LOVE

I read this book via an Amazon KINDLE unlimited.

There’s something special about devotions, devotions which usually get written in books for and about women, and written by them as well. Devotions are designed for readers to reflect upon a myriad of topics relevant to Christian women regardless of their denomination, from their unique place in the eyes of the Lord when it comes to themselves, family, and service to Him.

Love is a devotional topic that continuously gets touched upon during other devotions, and since February is considered by many to be the month of love [especially February 14th], this devotional book written by Sparrow Brooks.

We get continuously taught in the scripture about the topic of love and that we should love others as we love ourselves. One of the essential areas of love usually deals with the love between a husband and his wife, which we can find in:

ECCLESIASTES 9:9 [NKJV]
Live joyfully with the wife whom you love all the days of your vain life which He has given you under the sun, all your days of vanity; for that is your portion in life, and in the labor which you perform under the sun.

What Ms. Brooks has done daily in her book is to get readers to show love to all others, as is, I believe gets stated in

2 THESSALONIANS 2:13 [NKJV]
But we are bound to give thanks to God always for you, brethren beloved by the Lord because God from the beginning chose you for salvation through sanctification by the Spirit and belief in the truth.

For each day, the author gives her readers a specific verse of scripture regarding the topic of love, and then like Lord telling his parables to illustrate a particular lesson, Ms. Brooks relates a story of her own life experiences and how it correlates with the scripture she had chosen for that day. At the end of each day’s devotion, readers get asked to reflect on what they’ve read as it pertains to their own lives.

For wanting to enlighten her readers as to the importance of love in their daily lives, and especially towards others, I happy to give Ms. Brooks 5 STARS for her endeavor here.
