Ferozmente amada: Los grandes pensamientos de Dios para ti

by Lisa Bevere

Es hora de cambiar la forma en que piensas que Dios piensa acerca de ti. Cuando Dios piensa en ti, no está buscando una razón para descalificarte, repudiarte o juzgarte. Él no está esperando que fracases. ¡Nunca! Él es quien nos redime cuando fallamos, el que nos califica y adopta. Somos nosotros los que nos fijamos en nuestros fracasos, no nuestro Padre.
Lo que David escribió en el Salmo 139: 17-18 (NTV) sigue siendo cierto hoy: "Qué preciosos son tus pensamientos acerca de mí,] oh Dios. ¡No se pueden enumerar! Ni siquiera puedo contarlos; ¡suman más que los granos de la arena! Y cuando despierto, ¡todavía estás conmigo!” No hay un momento, ya sea que estés despierto o dormido, en el que Dios no tenga pensamientos salvajes de amor feroz hacia ti. Todo cambia cuando sabes esto y es importante que nunca más lo dudes.
Eres ferozmente amada, bien pensada y profundamente querida.
En este devocional de 90 días, la autora de éxitos de ventas del New York Times, Lisa Bevere, quiere cambiar tu perspectiva del concepto de ser alguien a quien simplemente se tolera, a alguien a quien se ama ferozmente. Cada día explora otra faceta de nuestra identidad, verdad y la conexión íntima de Dios con sus hijos.

It's time to change the way you think God thinks about you. When God thinks about you, He isn't looking for a reason to disqualify, disown, or judge you. He's not watching for you to fail. Never! He is our qualifying, adopting, and redeeming failsafe. We are the ones who fixate on our failures, not our Father.
What David wrote in Psalm 139 is still true today: "How precious are your thoughts about me, O God. They cannot be numbered! I can't even count them; they outnumber the grains of sand! And when I wake up, you are still with me!" (17-18 NLT). There is not a moment whether you are awake or asleep that God is not thinking wild thoughts of fierce love towards you. Everything changes when you know this and it's important for you to never doubt it again.
You are fiercely loved, well thought of, and deeply wanted.
In this 90-day devotional, New York Times bestselling author Lisa Bevere wants to shift your perspective from the concept of being someone who is merely tolerated to someone who is fiercely loved. Each day explores another facet of our identity, truth, and God's intimate connection with His children.

I enjoyed this 90-day devotionals about God’s love for me.

There were a few truths which stood out and made me remember of how God made and sees me.

*I listened to the audiobook on Scribd.*

**Thanks to Baker Publishing for the free copy of this book** The daily devotions were encouraging and well written. What turned me off about the book were the Bible scriptures using the Message and The Passion Translation versions and the author's emphasis included . I loathe these versions because it takes away from the original language into someone's opinion to make the scripture sound more hip and modern. This book is for females and some may find it empowering.
Example:
Psalm 45:11 (NKJV) So the King will greatly desire your beauty; He is your Lord, worship Him.
(KJV) So shall the king greatly desire thy beauty: For he is thy Lord; and worship thou him
-------
(TPT) For your royal Bridegroom is ravished by your beautiful brightness. Bow in reverence before him, for he is your Lord!
(MSG) Be here—the king is wild for you. Since he’s your lord, adore him

**Heartfelt and Empowering: A Guiding Light for Personal Faith**

In her latest work, Lisa Bevere takes readers on a deeply personal journey through the realms of faith, self-worth, and divine purpose. The book masterfully intertwines scriptural references with real-life applications, making the teachings of Christ accessible and relatable. Each chapter serves as a reminder of God's immense love and our place within His grand design.

What stands out most about Bevere's writing is her ability to connect on a very personal level, addressing the reader's innermost fears and aspirations with empathy and wisdom. She encourages us to shed our masks, embrace our unique God-given identities, and step into the roles He has crafted specifically for each of us.

While the book is undoubtedly uplifting, some readers might find the repetitive emphasis on certain themes a bit overwhelming. However, these repetitions do serve to reinforce Bevere's core message of love and acceptance. Her anecdotes and personal reflections add a layer of intimacy to her writing, making you feel as if she's a mentor guiding you through a spiritual journey.

Overall, this book is a beacon for anyone seeking to deepen their faith and understand their divine purpose more fully. Bevere’s passionate writing not only educates but also motivates one to live a life of meaning and authenticity in alignment with Christ's teachings. A highly recommended read for those looking to ignite their spiritual life and walk confidently in their faith.

This is a 90 day devotional focusing on God's Love for each of his children. Starting with you.
I didn't want to wait the 90 days to leave this review, I read it daily so I have a good grasp of how good this is.
Each day has a verse from scripture, then the author's thoughts and commentary on the verse, then ends with an affirmation.
The book is lovely, and I look forward every day to read it. It is 189 pages with 90 devotions, so each day is a short 2 pages.
I recommend this book to anyone, especially those who have a hard time believing that God loves YOU fiercely and personally every day.
I WON this book in a Goodreads Giveaway, thank you to Goodreads, the author Lisa Bevere, and Revell Publishing.

Loved this book. I think every new or old Christian needs to be reminded of the Father’s amazing love. If you need to grow more into a secure identity in our Daddy Jesus Christ, this is a great place to start. Secure attachment has been a big theme in my life lately, creating it for my kids and healing from it in the past. Love this.

Must read devotional. Read daily of how fiercely loved you are by God. May bring on some worth it tears. If you're looking for a daily devotional to remind you of how much you are loved by the one who created you, definitely get this book. Be reminded of His truths and promises over you.

[Denise · Rating 4 out of 5]

essentially a God-centered self-help book. Certainly gives a lot to think about and good advice.

[mary ellen powers · Rating 5 out of 5]

Loved this book. Very true truly spiritual. Highly recommended

I would recommend this book to any woman. Her guidance is excellent. She is realistic in a world that can be phony.

[Norma · Rating 5 out of 5]

A great reminder of who we are and why we were created.

[Jessica · Rating 5 out of 5]

SO good! I am loved by God!

[Sarah♥]

At first I wasn't excited about the content, but as I chose to not give up, there are more truths later on, that are good reminders, and provoked many good thoughts. In the end, I would recommend!

I love reading what Lisa Bevere has written and this doesn't change that. I just am not a fan of "The Message" or "The Passion Translation" but all in all this is a well written women's devotional.

DNF - Finish later

[Danica · Rating 5 out of 5]

Love this devotional, each one was absolutely phenomenal. Also while reading it each day I realized I am incredibly bad at going through devotionals, I am bad at being super consistent 😂 But the actual book is so full of wisdom, can’t wait to read her other devotional

[Samantha]

I enjoyed reading this - birthday present from my best friend.

[Ashlie Kepner · Rating 5 out of 5]

I’ll be reading this over and over again. I feel so much closer to the Father!
