After a LOONGGG string of bad relationships I decided to look to the Lord and found this book. Very good and easy read and helped to put lots of things in my life in prospective. And shortly after finishing the book, the most wonderful man ever found me!!! My best friend has been struggling with relationships lately and I'm going to buy her a copy of this for her birthday. And I think I'm going to re-read to remain focused!!

Very encouraging book for those single ladies that are waiting on the Lord. Allows you to examine your motives along with refocuses your view onto the Lord and knowing that He is the only one to complete you. Lot of thought provoking statements throughout the text. Great gift giving also!

Someone sowed into my life and brought me this book since I recently had a disire to be married. As a result, through prayer, my life has been changing to be the woman God desires me to be. Unknowingly, my friend noticed my changes and was inspired by the changes that I have made to be ready for the once that God desires for me. She was at B&N and saw this book and thought that it would be great for me. This book validated a lot of what I was already doing right, made sense of some things that I did not understand, gave me comfort in areas that I was beginning to be insecure about and gave me validation that when the time is ready - God will provide. God will provide someone to COMPLIMENT me and not COMPLETE me. If you are single and desires to find the right guy and be in a place where you will be a GREAT CATCH FROM GOD, get this book. You will be blessed by it!! Thanks TY!!

The unique feature of this newly revised edition of “Lady in Waiting” is the focus on finding fulfillment for the longing of the heart through a relationship with Jesus and developing the ten qualities of a godly woman found in the book of Ruth. Jackie Kendall and Debby Jones collaborate in an intricate balance of instruction, interactive study, devotional inspiration, and motivational story illustrations. The book is divided into four sections.
Part one is made up of ten chapters. Each chapter includes Biblical instruction, practical illustrations, and profound questions for reflection. The reader is directed to take action steps or guidelines for personal application and assimilation. Part two provides an interactive study guide for group or individual use, taking the reader to a deeper level of understanding and application. Part three contains daily devotional thoughts gleaned from the classical writings of well know women including: Madame Jeanne Guyon, Mother Teresa, Susanna Wesley, Hanna Whitall Smith, and many others.
Part four includes a wonderful compilation of seventy-seven poignant, unforgettable short stories from real life. Each story is designed to stimulate reflection and personal application.
“Lady in Waiting” is relevant for women in all walks of life. It is a guide and a guard for the single woman, a marriage support for the married woman, and a comfort for the widowed or divorced woman. Encouraging, motivating, and inspirational – Highly recommended.
A complimentary copy of this book was provided for review purposes. The opinions expressed are my own. As reviewed for Midwest Book Review.

Report this reviewThank you, this review has been flagged.Lady in Waiting has opened my eyes to the beauty of being single and the complications of marriage if you do not prepare yourself while married. This book has blessed my life to appreciate my life now and work on my relationship with God. This book showed me that is okay with desiring to be married but no to the point that it effects my relationship with God. I recommend this book for anyone who feels pressure to get married or who feels like their life will be complete once they are married.

I was very disappointed with this book. It is written by two women that have been married for some time and have absolutely no experience in being single. They use widowed Ruth as the comparison for being single throughout the entire book. If I could I would get a refund!!!
