The author has done a nice job with this book in the selection of specific Psalms for comfort and strength during troubling times. The devotions that accompany the day’s scripture are encouraging and help the reader focus on the message of the Psalm for that day, There’s even a list of praise and worship songs that go along with each day’s reading. After a month of reading though each day’s devotions on the book, you’ll be encouraged to continue reading through the Psalms on your own.

I received a copy of this book from the publisher. All opinions are my own.

While not a book I would normally request, my life left “normal” In the dust back in March.
Great for meditation.

The words were just what I needed every morning as I read one section every day for a month. When I started I was high anxiety about the current COVID crisis and was always thinking down and about the negative. Slowly each day built my faith and my walk with Jesus increased. By day 30 I was looking forward to my time spent in praise towards the almighty God. Thank you for this book.

A much-needed homage to the power of reading and meditating upon the Psalms and their ability to drive us from panic to praise.

Highly recommended for anyone going through hard times.

This book is perfect for the person who feels anxious and doesn't know where to turn or just needs a little calm time in their day. It is beautifully written and helps you to turn your focus on God and not the problems around you. It would make a wonderful gift. Thank you Moody Publishers via NetGalley for the ARC copy of this book. All opinions expressed are my own.

I was able to read Psalms for the Anxious Heart, A 30-Day Devotional for Uncertain Times by Becky Harling  for free from Netgalley for providing me with an advanced ARC in exchange for an honest review.
The book is broken down into a 30 day practice with a specific format to follow each day.  This book points back to God as a source of all goodness and support.  The key factor is to be consistent is helping those that experience anxiety to be able to feel a sense of calm and control. This book is perfect for our current situation in the middle of this pandemic, the riots and protests, just so much sadness.

Wow! So perfect for our current situation in the middle of this pandemic. Psalms has always been a favourite of mine and this book pulls calming ones to help us focus on God and find his peace. This book is exactly what I need to help me with the anxiety I’ve developed during this time. Thank you Mrs. Harling for this wonderful book!

5 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️. This book is a beautifully written 30 day devotional. I couldn’t have read it at a more perfect time with everything going on in this world right now...the pandemic, the riots and protests...just so much sadness and anxiety. Every morning after I make my cup of coffee, I sit at the table (in a quiet house, since my husband is working and my teenage daughter is obviously still sleeping) and I read my devotionals. I have 3 that I’ve been reading since January. This was a wonderful addition for the past month. I absolutely loved the writing. My favorite parts were the daily prayers and the recommended song. After I said the prayer and listened to the song I felt refreshed and ready to start my day...knowing that Jesus would be with me and help me to take on any challenges and anxieties that I was going to have to face! I highly recommend this book!

Thank you to NetGalley and Moody Publishers for an advanced copy in exchange for my honest review.
