I really don't have a question. I just want you to know how very much I have enjoyed this book. What a blessing it has been to me. I have been through it twice and am going back for the third time. I also bought it for a friend. Such an inspiration. Did not have a good, loving FATHER growing up. THANKFUL for a GODLY mother who helped me to know my LORD and SAVIOR. Thank you for writing this book.

This book was a great little find in the used book section of our regional Bible Bookstore!
What a blessing it has been to read, to meditate on the nature of Father God and the relationship He longs to have with us as His beloved creation.
I read this book a chapter at a time and then sat with each one, for weeks at a time.
Some I will continue to go back and reflect on and sit with.
This book has been a real joy for the journey!
Highly recommend it to anyone who needs a glimpse into the heart of Father God!

I love the way this book is written as if from God to me. So many of the thoughts are well articulated and you can tell that a lot of praying was done over the text of this book. It is a small easy read, but one I am glad I found and will be adding to my permanent collection. Each I am passage is followed by several scripture references.

I read Whispers of Rest by Bonnie Gray earlier in the year, but am still part of her book club. The word Beloved comes many times in both texts and I enjoyed the synergy that reading both gave me.

Beautifully done! The author writes as if God is speaking directly to you, I loved it because I felt a personal connection to the words and it really spoke to my heart. The book goes through 17 characteristics/attributes of God, and has a lot of verses at the end for you to read and reflect on. I high recommend this devotional, it truly shows God’s merciful love.

The information in this book is 5 stars, plus! Personal preference: I couldn't get past the first person perspective, as in, God is speaking to you as you read. Someone else may find this to be exactly what they need!!!

Absolutely beautiful. Everyday I received a personal, wonderful caress from Father God. I've read this several times, and I keep it handy. When I need to be reminded of how much I'm loved or of how much I need my Father, I pick it up again. It's timeless and daily, it's relevant.

Phillip Keller is such a great Bible teacher. He is a man of faith and in this book he shares great truths about how God cares for his children.

Great book! If God were to write a love-letter to us (apart from the Bible), this would be it!
