I recently had the opportunity to review Karen Edmisten's Through the Year with Mary. The book is composed of 365 reflections on the Blessed Mother. The reflections, as you can probably infer from the book's title, are in dated order starting with January 1st.
For each day, there is a quote from another source, such as John Paul II, several saints and many notable Catholic authors. The quotes, most of which are very inspiring or thought provoking, are followed by a brief reflection added by Karen Edmisten. Her reflections will lead you towards a deeper insight of the wisdom contained in the quotes from which they proceed. This beautiful collection of thoughts on Our Lady will serve to inspire and deepen your relationship with Mary and Jesus.
The reflections contained in this book are deep enough that you could easily ponder them over the course of a day. Of course, if you haven't much time, you could just as easily take a few minutes a day to reflect on them and still grow stronger in your relationship with Mary.
I highly recommend this book for anyone who loves Mary and would like a book with daily reflections about her. This book is surely bound to become a treasured favorite of mine.
I was provided with a review copy of this book by the publisher, Servant Books.
