LEARNING TO BE STILL

Peace isn’t something
you have to earn.

For the heart that replays yesterday and worries about tomorrow, this is a place to begin again.

Learning to Be Still: 31 Days of Peace for Your Past, Present, and Future pairs Scripture with honest reflections, one question to sit with, and a prayer written like a conversation with a friend.

A NOTE FROM THE AUTHOR

Hi, I’m Victoria.

Victoria Newman, Esq.

I’m an attorney, wife, and mom who wrote this devotional because I didn’t want my son to inherit a legacy of anxiety.

For years, I replayed my mistakes and tried to think my way to peace. Becoming a mother gave me a new reason to stop striving and begin receiving what Jesus had been offering all along.

These pages come from that journey. My hope is that they give you space to be honest with God and discover His peace in your own story.

With love, Victoria
