When you’re having one of those days, you just want to know that someone is on your side. You have more than just someone; you have your Heavenly Father! He is with you. He is for you. He hears your heart’s cry. And He will reassure you of this through the beautifully designed, hardcover devotional collection, God Hears Her. The personal stories, Scripture passages, and inspirational quotes pulled from Our Daily Bread devotionals will lift you up and remind you that God is bigger than the trials you face.
My Thoughts: This is a wonderful devotional for women. It is full of encouragement, hope, and joy. Women will love this; with a lovely floral cover with easy to read devotions inside. Each day there is something to glean from, some encouragement for a hard day, or just something for the reader to think about. Well written from a source you can trust. Our Daily Bread has been bringing devotions to readers for years. Each day gives you scripture reading and then the writer's thoughts for the reader to ponder. I really enjoy this devotional and it's beautiful enough to give as a gift.

Compiled by Our Daily Bread, “God Hears Her” is an affirming devotional collection by women, for women. Among the plethora of devotionals to choose from, what sets this collection apart is not only the exclusively female authorship, but also the focus on women’s needs. This could be read by other groups, but will speak most to a woman’s heart. Because of its compact size, “God Hears Her” will fit into a handbag or purse, and although unpaginated, the readings are dated by month and day. This worked well for me because I am using a hardback copy, but if an e-reader wants to jump to a certain day or selection, I can foresee this being a problem. I personally would have appreciated a table of contents with the title of each day, simply for ease of use and for concentrating on a particular topic after completing the year of readings.

Each day’s reading is one small page in length, with the Bible verses pertaining to the devotional story listed and the main verse written out. With a short paragraph or two each dedicated to the author’s story and the Biblical tie-in, these can be read in a minute or two. This brevity is advantageous for the busy woman, and I appreciate that about it, but at the same time I feel somewhat unfulfilled. For newer Christians or those unfamiliar with the Bible, this is probably not the best devotional to start your study with, but if you are looking to mix up your routine and want to choose something that is quick and pertinent to women today, give “God Hears Her” a try.

This is put out by the Our Daily Bread Ministries. I've read their daily devotionals (in the small pamphlet form) for years, and I've always enjoyed them.

This is a nice little collection of devotions, written by women for women. It's encouraging and inspiring, and the entries are short enough to fit into a hectic schedule. Each day includes a Scripture verse, along with the message. It's a wonderful reminder that God hears our prayers, even when we think He's not listening. It's a year-long devotional book. I read an electronic copy, and I do prefer my devotional books in print. I'll have to look for this one (as it's a 2017 release), as it'd make a nice addition to read through again during my daily devotional time.

I LOVe God HearsHer". A devotional I read all the way through. Then on a daily basis. I will be buying this in Harcoveer as well.

Daily, digestible nuggets of truth for women to ponder. Woman today are battered with so many competing voices, it is no wonder we have a hard time hearing our wonderful Savior whispering words of love, affirmation, and praise. This daily devotional from Daily Bread Ministries provides a Scripture and a reflection, written by women, for women. I was drawn to the colorful cover and liked that each day had a link to the actual Scripture. I appreciated the conciseness of each day’s readings, making it attainable to read no matter of my busy schedule.

My Thoughts on God Hears Her:
We have used Our Daily Bread devotionals for years and I was excited to receive a copy of God Hears Her to review. It has not been disappointing at all. The personal stories are inspiring. The scriptures that are used are always inspiring and somehow just what I needed to hear.

Quotes throughout are inspiring and I find myself wanting to share them with everyone I know.

Do you need a gift for the women in your life? This is it. This is the gift that will keep on giving all year long because as long as she reads this daily she will daily have encouragement. I’m afraid I couldn’t wait to read this so I read multiple pages a day and it didn’t last me very long. But! The good thing about devotionals like this is that I can just restart when I finish no need to worry about the dates.

Highly recommend Our Daily Bread devotionals and specifically this book. You’re going to love it. This would also be great for teen girls as it’s just a devotional with no questionable content.

This one-year devotional book offers 365 one-page devotionals written by women who write for the daily devotional periodical Our Daily Bread. The entries are quick to read but present something to think about during the day. They each begin with a suggested Bible reading, which add to the accompanying message shared. The topics are ones anyone can relate to, such as relationships, spiritual growth, natural disasters, and a host of others we face regularly. The stories give honest glimpses into the lives of the writers, whose biographies are listed in the back of the book. Some daily readings are more personal, and others are written in third person about things in the world or Scriptural teachings. The book would be a great way to start or end the day or for a quick pick-me-up whenever you have a break. And if you get behind, it’s easy to catch up since they are short. Although it’s suggested for use by women, I think men would be blessed by it too. It could even be used read aloud as a family devotional for couples or those with older children. Its content is very basic, though, so great for new believers. I received a copy from Celebrate Lit. All opinions are my own.

This is a great little devotional you can pick up in the morning, get into the word and reflect.
For each day there is a passage of scripture you can read. If you don’t have time for that you can always just read the verse that is there, but reading the passage takes you deeper.
Then you have a couple of paragraphs that you read and then are done. This is great for someone who doesn’t’ have a lot of time in the morning. You could even take this to work and do it when you have a free moment.
The cover itself is very pretty and will appeal to most women.

I have been reading Our Daily Bread devotionals for many years now so when I first heard of God Hears Her I knew I wanted to read it. These 365 daily devotions are written by women for women. I was encouraged and renewed as I read along. We can certainly know that when we pour our hearts out to God, He truly does hear us.
There are short bios in the back for each of the 19 women that contributed to this devotional. Though my children are adults now, the ones that pulled at me the most were the ones where small children and their faith stood firm. “A little child shall lead them.” One five year old loved church so much that he cried when he couldn’t attend. He would walk into children’s church and declare, “Let’s get this party started!” We should be as enthusiastic. A two year old wanted a cookie from the batch his mother was baking. She told him not until after supper. He cried and headed to his room. He returned shortly and informed his mother that Jesus said he could have a cookie. She told him, no he didn’t, to which he said, yes he did, you just weren’t listening. How many of us miss what God is trying to tell us because we aren’t listening? But we can certainly know that He does hear our cries to Him. This devotional is one that would be a blessing to any woman (or man) and also make a great gift for any occasion.

God Hears Her: 365 Devotions for Women by Women by Our Daily Bread Ministries is a lovely devotional for women. It has a beautiful hardcover with a page for each day of the year. It is a compact size at 6 ½” by 4 ½” which makes it easy to take with you (if you desire) and it fits nicely on top of my Bible. There is a foreword written by Elisa Morgan which I found enlightening. On each day there is a scripture passage, a short story (in a way) or verse, and then a short devotional that relates to the scripture passage. They are easy to read, and I found them encouraging. Each page is thought provoking, enlightening and positive. Reading each page is a great way to start or end a day (depending upon your schedule). It would also provide a nice pick-me-up in the middle of the day. I like that at the end there is information on the writers of God Hears Her. God Hears Her is especially beneficial for those new to the faith, but seasoned Christians will find new insights (I know I did). I am glad that I picked up God Hears Her as it is a wonderful addition to my daily devotions.

The short daily devotions, highlight a verse and a short story to ponder each day. There quick and easy to read. The compact book makes it easy to tuck away into your bag and carry it with you.

This is a lovely devotional written by women for women that provides a daily dose of encouragement and hope.

Excellent devotional material from Our Daily Bread. Short but meaningful daily reflections in God's word.

It is no secret that I love Bible Studies and Devotionals. There are so many to choose from that it would take me a lifetime to get through them which is perfect for me. This devotional caught my attention because of several reasons. I loved the cover and find that it is very inviting. The pocket size is perfect for me to take to doctor appointments because we all know that an appointment for the doctor is just a suggestion of when you will be seen. The last and most important reason I like this Devotional is because it speaks to my heart.

It is designed to be used each day for a year. In most books the author includes a forward which I always read. This one was really good as it prepares us for what is in store for us each day so I hope you take time to read it. Inside the book you will find personal stories and stories from the bible that relate to the topic of the day. I have started this book and have enjoyed every day with topics that are easy to apply to my life. I also like the suggestion of scriptures to read each day as well. The book has a permanent place on my table which I read every day. This would be a perfect gift to give someone to encourage them in the Word.

I received a copy of this book from Celebrate Lit. The review is my own opinion.

I love this devotional! More importantly, both my teenage daughters love it and are using it for their own personal devotions! I think this would make an excellent gift for a woman who needs to be encouraged that God does hear her!



It starts with a scripture passage, a featured verse, and then a short devotional, that is related in someway to the scripture. A small, beautifully designed hardcover book, it would be easy to carry with you on a business trip, to visit family, or a vacation, or to keep in your desk at work. My copy is on my bedside table for easy assess.



An excellent devotion for women, by women!



I was given a copy free. All opinions are my own.

This book is a warm, yet short devotional book, that I found rather uninteresting, as it had a very generic feel for it. Also, it seemed to cater to those who are new to Christianity, even though nothing in the blurb indicated that to be true. For example, a sentence of "Have you trusted Jesus for your salvation?" seems to be a question that a seasoned Christian already has answered. There are more parts with the same feel, which makes me think that it should be targeted toward new Christians.

This is a wonderful collection of short devotions and commentary that is perfect to begin or end your day. I think I will be using this year after year. Very thought provoking.

I want to thank Our Daily Bread Ministries for publishing this pray book and also for allowing me to read the ARC. My opinion is my own, not influenced by receiving the ARC.

This book has helped me get into God’s Word daily. It has also help me recognize his voice amongst all the chatter. Thank you for writing just a Gospel-Centered book.

A wonderful devotional with a daily Bible verse along with a relatable, encouraging short story by a woman. I'm thoroughly enjoying this beautiful devotional and it has become a special part of my day.

I absolutely love this book. It's beautiful devotionals to begin each morning on a positive note and prayer. I also love that I can use this to reference back to my bible for even more understanding.

Very good devotional about our intimate relationship with God. It's refreshing to know that God not only hears us but answers our prayers. Very good book for someone who may be struggling right now.
