Strength and Stillness

STRENGTH AND STILLNESS
by Patricia T. Holland

With all the choices facing women today, and all the opportunities open to them, it can be difficult to find unity in our diversity. As Sister Patricia T. Holland says, in our turbulent era we may search in vain to find the calming strength and stillness for which our sex has always been known. In our efforts to improve or find ourselves, we can sometimes become caught up in comparison and competition. And by seeking external fulfillment, we can be thrown off balance even more.
But have we considered what lies within our own souls?

Sister Holland helps women unlock the five nested boxes of our souls to find the stability and peace we long for. Whether married or single, a mother with children or a mother at heart, we can be united in our diversity as we seek our own divine missions. Even amid times of trouble and worry, as we turn  toward the Son, we will find true inner peace.

My Review
As I was reading this book I thought...this book is JUST WHAT I NEED TO HEAR... and this book is FOR MY FRIEND standing over there... she needs to read this! This book is FOR EVERY WOMAN!
Filled with a POWERFUL message that we SO NEED today!
