The Woman in the Wilderness Joanna Alonzo

The Woman in the Wilderness is a journey, yours and mine. It's 40 days of seeking the heart of God. It's 40 days of coming away, of allowing Him to allure you, to lead you into the wilderness and to speak gently to you. This devotional is about your wilderness seasons, times you've felt Him beckon and draw you to seek out the God Who has always been with you, and yet is Someone you have to search out. Like a precious pearl buried in a field. Each day of this journey begins with the story of a woman, who is going through a fantastical wilderness in search of her beloved. She faces obstacles and meets a variety of characters. She deals with both defeat and triumph. Accompanying her part of the journey is a section called Manna, which reflects on the word of God and how her journey parallels a Christian's life. Every Christian in serious and ardent pursuit of Love Divine has, at some point, been The Woman in the Wilderness. If any of these resonate with you, maybe you are her too.
