Linguist, wordsmith and poet John Marshall loves 'those occasions when the Lord very obviously shows up and does something wonderful'. His writings are filled with stories of how, in ordinary day-to-day life, when praying or when reading the Bible, God says something surprising and turns a mundane moment into a life-changing experience. Here, a collection of John's stories are gathered from his spiritual journal and presented in a daily devotional format, each with a Bible verse to meditate on, a poem to delight and challenge the heart, and a prayer to help you get started in your conversation with God. '...as you spend unhurried time in the pages that follow you will be able to ponder God's goodness to you, cry when you need to, laugh when you need to, and receive a fresh and beautiful vision of God's amazing gift of His Son, Jesus Christ, who has been given so freely to you.' - David Edwards, Worship Leader and Singer/Songwriter
