SISTER WIT
Devotions for Women
By Jacqueline Jakes
Warner Faith, ISBN 0446690481, PB

Sister WitOn many occasions, I have visited my local bookstore and sauntered past Jacqueline Jakes’ book, unaware of the wealth of wisdom and encouragement written just beyond the cover of Sister Wit. Recently, Sister Wit was placed in my hands, and I can wholeheartedly testify that like rain drops that fall across spring blooms, facilitating life and luster, the words of this devotional have flowed deep, watering my spirit with blessing.

A timeless collection that will motivate women for generations to come, Sister Wit encourages women of all ages and cultural backgrounds to navigate the torrid channels of life with oars of hope and sail into the next moment with a renewed sense of purpose and pride.

Jakes uses several of the devotions, as well as the Introduction and Afterword to share her own testimony of survival, both physical and emotional, creating a bridge that links Jake, the writer, with her readers. Sister Wit is an inspiring way to begin or end any Bible study or book club, and of course, your own busy day.

If you, like me, have neglected Jakes’ devotional, stop and reconsider. I assure Jakes’ engaging poetic and lyrical style will ignite a melody in your heart and have you returning to the pages of Sister Wit again and again.
