What Your Heart Needs For The Hard Days – Book Review
When you are going through difficult times, there is nothing more uplifting than starting and ending your day with the promises of God.
Holley Gerth’s new devotional, What Your Heart Needs For The Hard Days, is the perfect book to carry you through the most challenging of days!
What Your Heart Needs For The Hard Days contains 52 inspiring and encouraging devotionals that help us reflect upon the promises found in the Book of Psalms.
Each devotion is followed by a short prayer and journaling space where we can record our heart’s response to God.
Holley has a knack for saying the right thing at the right time in just the right way.
One thing I really like about this devotional is the chapter titles. Sometimes, when we are depressed, we simply don’t have the energy to read. However, just reading the titles of Holley’s devotionals gives us the courage to keep on going, even when we are out of steam.
For example, Holley reminds us:
- God Wants To Lift You Up When Life Lets You Down
- God Can Keep You Unharmed
- God Will Never Reject You
- God Doesn’t Expect You To Be “Fine”
- God Is Not Tired Of You
How many of us need to hear these things right now?
Different devotionals address different needs. What Your Heart Needs For The Hard Days addresses our deepest emotional and spiritual needs and provides us with the strength and hope we need to get through our toughest days.
I truly enjoyed this devotional and highly recommend it to you!
I rate this book 5 out of 5 stars.

A friend of mine just picked up this book on my recommendation and us enjoying it – if you pick it up, I’d love to know your thoughts as well!
I like that this book provides the space to journal right then and there. This way you are more likely to do it. I also like your comments on the titles…so encouraging they can be, just when we need it most.
Yes, just reading the titles when I am tired at night gives me a sense of peace and comfort!
