Sometimes being a mom can feel like an Olympic event. You vault out of bed in the morning. Leap over the hurdles of the day. Hustle the bath-and-bedtime relay. Sprint to the finish line—and collapse in a heap on the living room sofa.

 

Quick, grab a bottle of Gatorade! Dena Dyer believes that any new mother needs a little expert coaching on making it through the day. Ms. Dyer is a young mom with two small children, and she shows us, in forty-five biblically based meditations how to surrender our schedule to God, turn over our emotions, and even our relationships to Him. God is longing to help you to the finish line.

 

The true-life stories in Grace For The Race are well written and holds the reader’s interest. At the end of each meditation is a section entitled “Notes from the Coach” which includes the Bible verses that apply to each section. While not exactly a devotional, Grace For The Race is spiritually sound and can help frazzled new moms grow in the grace and knowledge of the Lord.
