Here is a bit about the book:
In the South, nothing is more refreshing than a glass of
sweet iced
tea. Nothing, that is, except experiencing God in those
small, everyday
moments. God, Me, and Sweet Iced Tea is a deeply personal
collection
of spiritual treasures designed to help readers experience
new mercies
each morning. Seasoned with insight and grace, this tender
devotional
points to the divine presence of God in everyday moments.
Whether
purchased as a personal resource or given as a heartfelt
gift, God, Me,
and Sweet Iced Tea will help readers develop a daily habit
of turning to
God in those quiet moments of reflection.
If your like me, you may wonder who writes a devotional and why they write them. I'm curious that way. Well I don't know about other authors, but here is what Rose says:
Why did you write a devotional?
When I decided to make Jesus the Lord of my life, in 1977, I
starting reading a devotional every morning. It was just what I needed to help
me focus and structure my time. I’ve incorporated devotional reading in my
quiet times with God for decades. I think most people could benefit from that
format. the fact that I wrote a devotional comes back to my desire to be
relevant and encouraging.
Who do you want to reach with your book? Which audience?
God, Me, and Sweet
Iced Tea is uniquely appropriate for working mothers, but it’s also for
anyone who wants to put their Christianity into practice in their everyday
moments and go deeper into God’s word. Reviewers have stated it’s for anyone
seeking God’s peace and a closer relationship with Him. I’m happy that men and
couples are enjoying it as well. As Tiffany Colter said, this devotional is
simple enough for the newest believer, yet deep enough to make a life-long
Christian feel challenged to go higher. There are 52 devotions followed by
questions for journaling and reflection, suggested scriptures for further
reading, a prayer, a sweet tea moment (thought for the day), and a prayer
focus. Those extra helps allow the reader to use this as a personal or group
study.
I invite you to take advantage of the “Look Inside” feature
on Amazon to see the table of contents and read several of the devotions.
