In our can't-stop world, where we frantically move through our days with hardly a moment of true rest and reflection, it's hard to comprehend the thought of being still, of leaving our anxiety and worry and impatience in the capable hands of a loving God. But that's exactly what Elisabeth Elliot calls us to do.

Using the title of one of her favorite hymns as her unifying theme, Elliot offers an inspiring collection of reflections on living the Christian life. Illustrating biblical concepts with her rich personal experiences as a missionary, mother, wife, widow, radio host, and internationally known public speaker, Elliot writes with clarity and elegance on topics at once timeless and timely. This lovely new repackaged edition is perfect for the busy times in which we live.

Elisabeth Elliot's books are timeless

Anything Elisabeth Elliot writes is worth reading and this title is no exception. I purchased seven copies to give to friends who were going through difficult times. Elisabeth Elliot always speaks truth from Scripture and I love when she shares some hymn, poem or text from a writer that I have not heard of. She introduced me to many great writers like Amy Carmichael and Lillas Trotter.

A must read for Christian women

I have always loved Elisabeth Elliot’s style of writing. Her speech/writing is seasoned with truth and wisdom that only comes from a life clinging to Christ. This book is easy to consume yet is filled with profound truth. I am reading it for the second time through.

It wasa gift for my daughter, I started reading it and couldn't put it down, she received a used copy

Truly Enlightening!

One of the best books I’ve ever read on suffering! This author has become probably my favorite; I’ve read two more of her books and have ordered four more; she just makes sense!

Elizabeth Elliot is awesome

Elizabeth Elliot never disappoints me as an author who is able to express the deep and satisfying encounters she has with Christ and how we call can live with His guidance in our lives despite circumstances.

Beautifully written!

Wonderful encouraging book. Elisabeth Elliott is one of the best writers. All her books encourage and inspire you as you read them.

Bent and mis-shapen upon arrival

The delivery time was as expected but upon delivery the books were in a flimsy shipping envelope and when I pulled them out, all three were bent and mis-shaped from shipping and one's cover had been creased & bent over. Not at all the expected quality.
