Description

---

This collection of daily contemplative devotions inspires and lifts the spirit -- a brief daily encounter walking and resting in the arms of the Father. A calming tranquil gem, this small book offers a single Scripture upon which to meditate each day, and words of infinite wisdom that seem to flow from the Father's heart.

Echoes of Eternity Volume II  written by Chaplain Hal Helms, provide a maturity in his words as he offers perspective on each daily Bible Verse. These brief meditations were gathered by his wife from his faithful daily devotional practice. They have the power to fuel your own quiet moments.  Helms has a tender manner of redirecting us back to our path of following Jesus.  

Our oldest Christian traditions invite us to listen as well as speak when we pray, yet often God's voice seems barely audible. A bestseller since its original release a quarter century ago, Echoes of Eternity Volume II is an authentic record of one man's quiet listening to God and recording of what he heard. 

"This little book helps you to listen to God and his words of encouragement to you. Each day there is a passage from Scripture, followed by a short but powerful word of encouragement or counsel written as if God is speaking directly to you. You will be uplifted and renewed in your awareness of God's love for you."

In the calm and quiet places of the heart, many Christians seek to hear for themselves "the still small voice" of God. The oldest Christian traditions invite listening as well as speaking when praying. Yet often the Voice seems barely audible, drowned out by the cry of our own wishes or thoughts that call for immediate attention. Echoes Of Eternity: Listening To The Father gathers (in 365 short devotions) "impressions" of God's words from years of listening. Each meditation includes a scripture verse and encouraging words that speak of Christ as our anchor, the treasure of God's love, His abiding peace, and more. Every entry opens the door for the reader to meditate further and hear what God is saying. Echoes Of Eternity can facilitate a quiet moment alone with God at any time or place. -- Midwest Book Review
