“Powerful Moments in the Presence of God” by Lorraine Marie Varela

There is a Balm in Gilead

It isn’t often that something is both beautiful on the inside and the outside, but that rare occurrence comes together in this book.  Open the cover of this volume, and you will find stunning pictures that are paired with encouraging Bible verses.  The short messages that accompany the verses seem as if they are straight from the mouth of God.  It is a visual treat to look at the pictures.  The uplifting Bible verses, and encouraging messages feed the soul.

“Come to me, all of you who are tired and have heavy loads….

Sprinkled throughout the volume are instances when God clearly made Himself known to the author, or her acquaintances.  These encounters impart hope, even when it appears hope is nowhere to be found.  Mrs. Varela shares a time when all seemed to be lost.  Her husband developed the fastest moving cancer his doctor had ever seen.  They were perplexed since they had spent months praying and fasting for him to be healed.  Anyone suffering with a health problem will find the outcome very thought provoking.

….and I will give you rest.”

It is the author’s desire that this book will allow you to hear God’s voice, to inspire you to be still, and listen to the message He has for each of us.  The contents of this volume can easily be applied to everyday life.  I was deeply touched by this volume, really enjoyed it, and it gave me peace.  This is a gift book that has a striking scene on its padded cover, and is very well made with quality material.  This volume is a treasure to own, and a priceless gift to receive.  It will bring the reader joy.  I highly recommend this 5-star book to anyone who enjoys uplifting words of God displayed in a beautiful manner.
