The more I study God’s true character, the more I realize how much there is to learn—and I want more! That’s why I’m so thankful for Carolyn Lacey’s new book. In Amazed, she does a wonderful job of both exploring God’s attributes through Scripture and leading readers to respond to the Lord in faith. I highly recommend this devotional!
Carolyn has collected well-known Bible verses and woven them together in a fresh way to lift our eyes from ourselves to see the greatness of our God. Wholesome, hope-filled and helpful, this book is a great gift to us and will make a great gift for others.
The devotions in Amazed pack God-sized theology into digestible daily doses. By offering Christ-centered devotional thoughts in a conversational tone, Carolyn Lacey invites us to stand in awe of God through peering at some of his attributes. The beautiful format mirrors the beautiful prose!
Not only is the cover of this devotional beautiful, but the words within its pages are equally inspiring and gentle.
I picked up this devotional as the Bible study I was doing came to an end, and it has become the perfect nightly routine. Each chapter invites the reader to pause and reflect on the awe-inspiring nature of who Jesus is.
I’m genuinely excited to read another book by this author. Her writing is captivating and easy to read, yet deeply profound. Anyone who spends time with these pages will be greatly encouraged by the truth and tenderness found within them.
Accessible and encouraging. I found my thoughts drawn again and again to the greatness and goodness of God by these devotions. Meditating on the character of God is truly awe-inspiring - in the best way possible!
In Amazed, Carolyn Lacey leads you through 30 days of growing in awe of God.
The Glory of God
This eye-opening devotional book consists of six sections with five chapters each—His glory (holiness), His power (protection), His creation (design), His uniqueness (incomparable), His greatness (rule), and His kindness (mercy).
I was most interested to notice how Ezekiel 1:22–28 struggles to find adequate words to describe the glory of God. It made me thankful for the words God gives us to tell us about himself and to tell others about him.
Protection, Compassion, and Kindness
I was especially moved by the section on God’s protection—that He is my stronghold (Psalm 27:1). He is shelter, safety, and security—a far better protection than my own ability to defend myself or talk myself out of trouble.
I was also deeply touched by the explanations of God’s compassion and kindness shown in Christ. I saw my sin, and how small I am compared to God, yet He moves toward me.
God Becomes Bigger
This book is rich with biblical texts and beautiful truths. Reading this book reminded me that there is always more to see of God. God became bigger to me after reading it. And it made me hungry to see more of him every day.
I received a media copy of Amazed and this is my honest review. @diveindigdeep
This was such a sweet read. I had been looking for a new devotional and this was perfect. Easy to get into, and filled with lots of depth. This devotional was super practical as it did not take long to read each day. As this devotional focused on learning more about who God is, I also learned the importance of recognizing His power, kindness but also just being able to appreciate His presence. Such a special way to dive deeper in your relationship with Christ. Highly recommend.
This 30 day devotional is a great option for those who are looking to grow in their understanding of God’s attributes and character.
The sections focus on;
1. His Glory
2. His Power
3. His Creation
4. His Uniqueness
5. His Greatness
6. His Kindness
Each day has verses to read, so you will want to have your Bible with you as you are reading through the book. There is also a section to cultivate and a prayer each day. At the back of the book there is space to journal.
This devotional is great especially since as we understand who God is it impacts our view of who we are while also bringing glory to God. This book is accessible and Biblically focused. If this is an area you want to spend intentional time focusing on, this is a great option!
Are you looking for a devotion that is both theological and practical? Grab a copy of Amazed: 30 Days of Growing in Awe of God.
Each devotional ( roughly a 10-15 minute read) has:
- key verse
-personal story
-Scripture passage
-Culvitate ( practical implementation)
-Prayer
I've read a few different books on the attributies of God, this book is unique because it doesn't just focus on outlining God's traits, but who in knowing Who God is we can be utterly amazed at our Creator. When we grow further in awe of God, it leads us to deeper faith and profound worship.
This would make a great gift for both the new believer and seasoned Christian. Check out the other book, Grateful, in this series of devotionals as well.
