Found
by Micha Boyett
A Story of Questions, Grace, and Everyday Prayer
Embracing a new way to pray and an old way to God.
My
first year of motherhood I lost prayer. I lost early mornings of quiet,
mornings in my pajamas with a Bible in my lap, mornings when I spoke my
mind’s chaos into God’s ear and let the chaos come back ordered, holy
sealed. I lost peace. I lost clarity and certitude. My faith was never
perfect before my son was born, but somewhere in that first year,
somewhere in my distraction and exhaustion, I lost the Spirit-life I had
known. I blamed myself. . . .”
Found is a story of nourishment for anyone who hungers for rich
spirituality and has come up empty. It’s a story for anyone who is
trying to reconcile great big dreams with the ordinariness of their
days. It’s a story of discovering divine kindness and affection in the
most mundane moments of life. With brilliant and moving prose, Micha
Boyett invites us on a journey to discover the richness in the
everyday—and it changes everything.

I really enjoyed this book. I highly recommend it. It's perfect for anyone who is missing something. You can find everything you need with God. You must read and spend time talking to God. This book is wonderful and I am so glad that I was chosen to review it.
