New Sheets by Cindy Sproles

Out with the old and in the with thenew, right? Sadly, that's often easier said than done. Sure, it's acinch when we're tossing the worn-out tennis shoes or replacing thedying laptop. But what about when dealing with broken hearts,relationships and dreams? Is it possible to simply toss them asidelike the aged, yellowed lampshade from the deceased great aunt?
The truth is that life is a journey,and as with all journeys, not every mile will be pleasant. Therewill be traffic jams and harsh winds, sour attitudes and torrentialrain, flat tires and dead batteries. But in the midst of it all,there will also be God, giving us strength to make it another mileand then another and then another. Many choose to commemorate theend of such a journey, but as this journey will not end until ourarrival in Heaven, author Cindy Sproles has decided to take adifferent approach. In her book, "New Sheets: Thirty Days toRefine You Into the Woman You Can Be", she opens her heart andexposes her method of marking each new milestone with a fresh set ofsheets. From the cheapest of muslin to the most extravagant silk,Cindy's sheets tell the story of one woman's journey from pain andheartache to joy and acceptance.
What I love most about this book isthat Cindy holds nothing back. She bears all, tells all, andexplains all. She opens the eyes of the readers, helping each tounderstand that she is not alone in her struggles. While it pains usto read of another woman's heartache, there is also great comfort tobe found when we realize, "It's not just me. I'm not the onlyone who feels this way!" In her own unique way, Cindy displaysthe disappointment of a life that didn't turn out according to planfollowed by a hope that comes from the knowledge that God has a planfor our pain and that He is working all things for our ultimate good.
Written in a conversational style, thisbook is a joy to read. Whether you need a boost to begin your day ora word of encouragement to calm your mind before bed, "NewSheets" will do the trick. Each of the thirty devotions isshort, making it easy to fit into even the busiest of schedules.
