Devotions for Morning and Evening with Mrs. Charles E. Cowman

I had to order this as my old one is in at least 25 broken sections from reading and re-reading it! Not a day has passed that each particular page has spoken to me God's words of faith, encouragement, endurance, pressing on with a song in your heart and even the gentlest but firm discipline when needed. The authors and "selected" readings I know were directly from the Holy Spirit given to these saints of old. This book is a must for every believer embarking on the pilgrimage back home to heaven. (see Hebrews 11:13-16) Brings healing tears to the spirit, soul, and body.

After pouring out my heart to a woman I worked for, she gave me an old copy of this book. It has truly has been an answer to my prayers. I am a 21-year-old college student, who found myself in the words of Mrs. Cowman. She examines the heart's deepest troubles and exposes them to the promises of God, healing them from the inside out. I would recommend this book to anyone.

I bought this as a gift for my mother and she loves it. Even though it is a little harder to find, my mother claims that the evening devotionals which are taken from Cowman's "Springs in the Valley" are just as moving as the Morning devotionals (taken from "Streams in the Desert"), if not more so. Another great gift idea is the "Streams in the Desert" Journal which gives the reader room to journal next to the moving daily devotional.I have been reading the paperback devotional of "Streams in the Desert" and I enjoy it greatly. It is non-judmental and very loving. My fave devotional!

Mrs. Cowman has obviously faced many trials during her lifetime. You can feel this through the incredible collection of writings that was dear to her heart. This book speaks directly to anyone who knows the reality of life and wants to be victorious through Christ. I am moved by each page and encouraged so completely. I read her works over and over.

Mrs. Cowman is not a new writer - She is a classic! So much work to combine scripture with devotional with poetry. An absolute must for the walk of a christian woman. She is the female Oswald Chambers! She has also combined other credible authors to her Springs in the Valley!
