Faith Breezes: Glimpsing God’s Glory in Everyday Life

As women of faith, our lives can become endless to do lists: each task important and worthwhile, but all of them together a constant struggle. Faith Breezes offers a series of small moments of refreshment-times of grace and stillness that can be savored without effort or expectations, in the midst of even the busiest day. Faith breezes are small reminders of God that caress our souls and reassure us that He is always near. Just as the breeze moves everything from the highest clouds to the lowest grains of sand, God’s power breathes in all of the aspects of human life. No matter how delicate or gusty, a faith breeze always offers a glimpse of the awe-inspiring glory of God. From a grandchild’s surprisingly profound remark to a Biblical passage that strikes right to the heart of a struggle, faith breezes come at the exact right moment to restore, reawaken, and reconnect us to God’s love. A Lay Speaker in the Florida Conference of the United Methodist Church for ten years, Sue Holbrook shares her own faith breeze moments in brief essays and offers pages on which readers can recall and savor their own. Both humorous and heartfelt, Faith Breezes is the perfect companion for women of faith seeking to deepen their connection with God despite busy days and myriad responsibilities.
