There are a lot of reasons why you should own and read a devotional. Quiet time with our Heavenly Father, regardless of what time of the day you prefer to do it, is very important to your faith walk. If reading the bible every day seems impossible, devotionals will get you that intentional time with Jesus. I have read and owned several devotionals through the years and I also love the You Version App. It fuels my soul and connects me to God. On busy days when I only have a few minutes in my car, I have a pocket devotional that helps me set my day and position my heart to listen to our Holy Father.

I also love being able to doodle and journal. "Becoming His Masterpiece: Reflect and Pray Edition" is a devotional (52) that includes beautiful work of art that encourages you on your walk of faith. This devotional is not a pocket size. The letters are big enough to read. I love the Reflect portion of this devotional as it will encourage you to go deeper into God's word. There are also several blank and lined pages at the back of the devotional that enables you to write any prayer request or a win! The reflect portion also moves you to action, the devotional doesn't just let what you learn to sit inside your brain! It will move your heart and posture you to move or act in faith.

About Becoming His Masterpiece Devotional:

Becoming His Masterpiece: Reflect and Pray Edition is a feast for the eyes and food for the soul. This unique devotional book pairs stunning abstract art with Christian devotionals providing readers with encouragement and spiritual sustenance along the lifelong discipleship journey. Author/artist, Sharon Collins shares the profound spiritual lessons God is teaching her as a painter and writer. She thinks of her devotionals as conversations with her readers, confiding the joys and blessings as well as failures and struggles along the path to becoming God's masterpiece. Sharon writes with energy and refreshing candor. Her vivid paintings reflect the beauty, love, and grace that a relationship with Jesus Christ brings to believers. This Reflect and Pray Edition includes not only new arrangements of the same fifty-two devotional/painting pairings from Sharon's original devotional book, Becoming His Masterpiece but also the opportunity for readers to dig deeper into each devotional with thought-provoking questions and space for journaling.

  Sharon Collins’ life is proof of the adage, “God doesn’t call the equipped, He equips the called.” She never envisioned herself as an author or artist. After a career using her brain’s left side, she retired with plans of enjoying new grandchildren and providing leadership for women’s Bible study at her church. But God had plans for her brain’s right side. In March 2018, five months after her first painting class, Sharon felt the Lord’s call to create a website to post devotionals paired with her paintings. Although totally unequipped for all these tasks, God faithfully provided for her needs. When not painting and writing, Sharon and her husband, Ron, love to travel. The current count is 45+ countries and all seven continents. Sharon also loves to spoil her four grandkids who know that their “Nonni” will give them ice cream for breakfast.
