I’m not usually a poetry girlie, but I loved this collection of poems!

The art scattered throughout the book really adds to the book as well as the blank spaces on the page with the poems (perfect for journaling if I do say so myself)😊 I keep this book on my coffee table so I can pick it up whenever I’m feeling down. 

A must have for any Christian who struggles with depression/anxiety!
