Description

Space, a 30-day devotional, will help you learn how to create sustainable rhythms of work, play and rest while reminding you that God loves you for who you are, not for what you can do. Raised in a home that valued productivity over everything else, Manda was enrolled in multiple activities at all times and lived in a constant hurry from one thing to the next. In college, she nearly killed herself going to school, competing on the track team, and working at three different jobs -one of which was the graveyard shift stocking shelves at a beauty supply store. Manda had no idea how to function without an overwhelmingly busy schedule or leave room for rest. Eventually, she became physically ill, crabby, and emotionally drained. In 2018, God's voice caught Manda's attention in the midst of a run and the call for space was clear. Though she didn't have a clue how to change the pace of her life, God made it clear one step at a time until her life looked entirely different and her mind, body and spirit were transformed. "This is more than a helpful or inspiring resource. It is an invitation that takes you by the hand and dares you to reset. Manda walks with you and leads you closer to Jesus every step of the way. Every woman feeling that she is overwhelmed, exhausted, or lacking space needs this!" - Jordan Lee Dooley, Bestselling Author of Own Your Everyday
