Description
Jesus never promised that we would be free of difficulties in this life, that neither suffering nor hardship would cause us pain. What he did promise was to be with us no matter the situation—“even to the end of the age.”
Sacred Space: A Little Book of Encouragement offers seventy short chapters to comfort us with God’s presence in the midst of life’s challenges and to remind us that Jesus journeys with us step-by-step. Each entry—which includes a Gospel reading, a short reflection, and a prayer—is given a descriptive title so that readers can easily find the encouragement they need depending on their situation at the time.
Lovingly compiled by Vinita Hampton Wright using select material from Sacred Space (the online prayer site that serves millions of spiritual pilgrims), this inviting and reassuring little book gently reminds us of the compassion, care, and calm that God provides in our moments of need.

Very good book. Loved the concept. Will refer back to it I am sure.
70 short but packed chapters or reflections make up this mighty little book. Each chapter is made up of a Gospel reading, short reflection and prayer. Each chapter is given a descriptive title like "When I feel unseen and Insignificant" or "Sometimes the Temple Needs Cleaning" or "Am I afraid to Surrender".
I used this book during my morning quiet time and it allowed me to carry the reflection as well as my own take away with me throughout the day. I love that you don't have to read the chapters in order. The day I felt unheard, I could read "Can I trust God to Hear Me" and a take away to meditate on during my day.
The chapters are short so they can be used where time is limited but they are packed with thought provoking words.
