Peace Be Still Book Review

A CBM Christian Book Review ~ Peace! Be Still!: The Unfinished Story of My Life by Marie Nadeige Maurice offers readers life lessons and insights to knowing God and hearing His voice that bring an understanding to readers that the all-knowing, all powerful God is in control ~ therefore, you can be still and have peace, faith and joy through the storms of life.

Offering a glimpse into her childhood and teenage years, the author, presents how she came to know the Lord and who He was in her life. His faithfulness resonates throughout as she describes difficult times of lack and poverty, going days without food, yet she teaches that she learned to be thankful in all things.  To readers, this book will resonate with them on some level as the author encourages others to look to God as their provider.  From a Biblical perspective, this book offers much hope and peace in Scripture, teaching how to grow and trust in the Lord through life’s storms.

As learning to trust the Lord is one of her main themes in the book, the author encourages readers to know that God is able to keep you safe, protected and provide peace in any of life circumstances; understanding this is one of life’s most important lessons.

As the author states, “A life without tribulations is a life without lessons.”  Learn how to take past mistakes, hurts and wounds and let God teach you how to find strength and peace in the storms of life.  This book also gives strength and hope to readers to remain calm during the many life tribulations that may come your way, exemplifying some of Jesus’ teachings and gleans from such Biblical examples such as Job. Within her writings is a chapter that gives inspiration, teaching that these life-lessons (tribulations) are meant to produce godly character and hope as Scripture states.

This book offers hope in Jesus Christ to readers through attitudes and perspectives that help one grow in faith and trust in Jesus Christ. Advocating that true peace is found in the power and presence of the Almighty, readers will be amazed at her life story. 

Her teachings are proven Biblical perspectives that present peace as one of the core foundations of Christianity. One must know how to anchor their life in Jesus Christ to be able to withstand the storms of life that will undoubtedly come. (Note: Readers from the U.S. in particular might want to read this book as it gives an understanding of how truly blessed we are as a nation.)
