My Review:
Beth Moore is a fantastic storyteller and has a way with words.
We long to find someone who has been where we've been, who shares our fragile places, who sees our sunsets with the same shades of blue. Soul mates. They somehow validate the depth of our experiences.
Beth speaks from a voice of experience, and her stories are relatable. It is fascinating that, with all she has gone through, she continues to be a positive voice in a dark world.
Pondered. It's a wonderful word. It is the practice of casting many things together, combining them and considering them as one.
I am not a huge fan of poetry, but I found her poems to be interesting and relevant. This is one of her older books, but it stands the test of time. We all have things we ponder.
★★★★/5
Synopsis (Goodreads):
Just as Mary treasured her memories as the mother of Jesus and pondered them in her heart, this book celebrates treasured moments in the life of every woman, wife, and mother. Told from a fresh, personal perspective, these stories and poems form a warm, inspiring collection of remembrances of children, Christmas, marriage, trials, friendship, the seasons, grace, and above all, God’s love for us. Things Pondered proves Beth Moore not only to be an effective speaker and author of popular Bible studies, but also show her to be a gifted, sensitive writer and poet.
