    The One Year Book of Inspiration for Girlfriends by Ellen Miller

    Posted by Lori Monday, September 28, 2009

    ...juggling Not-So-Perfect, Often-Crazy, but Gloriously Real Lives. The subtitle of this book caught me right away. Oh boy, do I resemble that one! The One Year Book of Inspiration for Girlfriends seemed like something designed for someone like me- imperfect, crazy, and sometimes way too real.

    Author Ellen Miller is CEO of a technology marketing firm who began blogging about three years ago, hoping to encourage her friends. She attracted thousands of readers and her musings have been turned into a book of 365 daily readings full of encouragement and inspiration to "live a life of profound joy".

    Each day is no more than a page long and ends with either a Scripture verse of encouragement or a prayer from the author's heart. These are personal reflections from her life, complete with stories from work and home. While not agreeing with the author on everything she writes, I found many of the readings to be encouraging and enjoyable. I wouldn't recommend this as your sole devotional study, but more as blog entries from a woman just as imperfect as yourself and yet relying on the Lord for everything in her life and encouraging the rest of us to do the same. As that, it's a cute book.

    The One Year Book of Inspiration for Girlfriends retails for $14.99 and is available at your favorite online or local bookstore.
