Jesus Calling for Christmas by Sarah Young is a devotional for getting ready for Christmas that has nothing to do with presents (although this devotional would make a nice pre-Christmas present). This little devotional has 50 days of devotions for the reader. This book does not dive deep into scripture but rather has one page has a nice poem or story from Jesus to you the reader. Then the next page or two gives short little scriptures. These little scriptures may be the familiar ones of the newborn but also includes scripture from the Old and New Testaments which tell of His great love for you the reader. Using this devotional could be used for the first 10 minutes of your day in Advent but really it can be used any time of the year. It proclaims that Jesus came to the world to save both you and me but He came for always not just at Christmas. This is the message that we all need to know. Jesus is for all the year.
This devotional has been made with great workmanship. The pages are thick and glossy. The padded binding feels nice in your hand. The beautiful pictures are on every page. They are of the lovely winter weather that we in the north enjoy at Christmas. This is an easy to read book that could be read to the family during Advent. Even the youngest child will enjoy the little short devotions.
I received this book from BookLook for this review.
