Patchwork Devotional

INVITE GOD INTO EVERY MOMENT. Life is a fabric woven together with small moments. Each day we drive to work, run errands, cook meals, make phone calls, and everything else in between. In the midst of it all, God stays beside us as a partner, protector, and father. In the Patchwork Devotional, 365 days of encouragement, hope, inspiration, and humor will tune our souls to God’s presence—even in the small things. Writers include some of today’s most dynamic authors and speakers: Patsy Clairmont, Natalie Grant, Nicole Johnson, Carol Kent, Marilyn Meberg, Sandi Patty, Jan Silvious, Luci Swindoll, Sheila Walsh, and Lisa Whelchel. If we take the time, day-by-day we can come to know the privilege of experiencing God’s love for us in all things. We can learn to see everything—big and small—through his eyes.

Unique, story-based devotions-all centered on a quilting theme-offer hope and encouragement to readers. Ninety devotions, each with a practical quilting tip.

The fingers of a quilter stitch portraits of love with every pull of the thread. From the lines of the pattern to the clip of the final string, a quilter stitches moments in time. Woven through the intricate quilt blocks, stories of family, history, and hope for the future turn scraps of material into memorable tributes. In those hours of creation the quilter ponders life, legacy, and love. As the quilt folds across the lap of a quilter, reflection, prayer, and quiet moments resonate. A Patchwork of Promises: 30 Devotions for Quilters pieces together, block by block, a thought to ponder and a verse to consider. Gayle Ottemiller threads the needle of Christ and pierces the material of your life, allowing you to intertwine a deeper love of God into the quilts you create. Inside each devotion is a prayer or a patterned thought as well as a suggestion to help you make your stitches useful for the Kingdom. A Patchwork of Promises:30 Devotions for Quilters will draw you nearer to God as you quilt and tie the threaded knot tight to the hem of His garment.

Melanie Maldonado has taken as much care in stitching the wording of each devotional together as she has in creating the quilt that appears on the cover of this book. The twelve designs each contain a biblical lesson from the fabric of life. Use it for yourself or, better yet, use it with your quilting group.

THE PATCHWORK DEVOTIONALWhen I visited the Alamo, I noticed Spiritual parallels and began to put together thoughts which I posted on Facebook. After getting positive feedback, I began to post some events, people, places, and Biblical truths. It was suggested I put them in book form and make them available to my FB friends and family. It was well received and now it has turned into this book.180 devotions6x9"HardbackPaperbackEbook236 pages
