Cravings is a collection of card-size devotionals based on the Psalms. They are written to help mothers develop their relationship with God in the midst of motherhood.
Each card contains a scripture
for the day, a “thoughtlet,” and an action idea. As moms crave the sweet
morsels from God’s Word, they can draw a card from a delectable
Cravings holder—a pink cupcake!—that also displays the daily card for
hands-free viewing. Versatile enough to fit with any feminine décor in a
dining nook, a prayer closet, a kitchen--wherever you‘d want Scripture
at your fingertips. If you find you need Cravings around the home, just
one may not be enough!
Cravings can be a mom’s
daily devotional, a supplement to her regular quiet time, or even
doubled up during the day. The set of 40 cards offers over a month’s
worth of Cravings in whatever way serves the spiritual needs of
individual moms.
I
love my Cravings devotional! I really like the idea of helping,
encouraging, and equipping mothers to connect with God. Who doesn't
need the Lord? It is true that motherhood can be very busy and
sometimes things are left forgotten or there just doesn't seem to be
enough time for it. I have been guilty of this with my relationship
with the Lord. You know what though, we all have 24 hours in a day. It
is up to you and me how we choose to spend it. If I do not have enough
time in my day for things that I hold dear or deem a priority I am
probably making some poor choices - at least this is what I am finding.
I love the cute cupcake holder design. I have a funny story here. After I first set-up my Cravings Devotional cupcake on my bed, D came into my room right away. She asked me about my new cupcake and if she could have a bite. She went right up to it and tried to lick the frosting - it was too cute :)
I
really like the topics discussed some of which include love, anger, fear, joy, weakness,
play, health, gossip, perspective and so much more! I also really like that these cards can aid you where you
are at. You can take a thoughtlet and meditate on it that day or even a
week. I love the call to action ideas that take it one step further, don't just talk about it or think it but do it! I have not finished my devotional yet but it has been a
pleasure to incorporate into my life!

So I made note cards that I set around my house with scriptures written on them.
