My Review 🖤

This is unlike any devotional that I’ve ever read!  Celtic Wanderings is history interwoven with Scripture, a devotional that is so unique that you find yourself looking forward to each day's readings.  It is one of a kind resource that will only enrich your quiet time with the Lord, while also educating you on Celtic saints and traditions. 

Because “the Celtic people saw nighttime as a beginning rather than an end” it is recommended that it be read at night, preferably before bed, which further adds to this devotionals uniqueness.  The short devotionals are the perfect length for before bed reading, and I love the nightly “challenge” and prayer, giving you a good springboard for either further study or the right thoughts to ponder before bed.

It is divided into sections, giving focus to various topics like “Travel” and “Celebrate” and each days reading begins with a passage of Scripture, which I loved. You can feel the passion the author feels for Ireland, creating a craving in me to learn more about Ireland and its inhabitants myself, especially since I too have an Irish lineage. 

I feel so blessed to have Celtic Wanderings as a resource and devotional, and cannot recommend enough!
