If your faith is dwindling, and sometimes you find it difficult to keep looking up, then you’ve found the right book.
The re-released Special Author’s Edition of Shh! God is Trying to Tell Your Something has been updated to reflect the tumultuous nature of our current times and to remind readers that God is in control
For those looking for comfort and assurance in these uncertain times, Shh! God Is Trying to Tell You Something serves as an important reminder to stop, breathe, and listen. In the 2020 re-release of her 2014 devotional, author and minister Shearon Hurst offers sage advice grounded in scripture on the importance of embracing silence in order to receive God’s words of encouragement.
The revised book has been edited and updated in light of the global uncertainties that have impacted people across the globe in 2020. The daily devotional contains words to inspire readers with the messages the Lord has to share with them and reinvigorate their faith in a time when it may be faltering.
“In the face of this continuing global pandemic, economic upheaval, and political unease and uncertainty, it’s more important than ever to remind ourselves that God is in control,” said Shearon. “My hope in re-issuing this important devotional at this particular moment is that it serves as a resource to help comfort people in these trying times by deepening their connections to their faith and the Lord.”
Excerpt
GET STARTED ON YOUR DREAM
It is time for us to get busy and be obedient to the things the Lord has given us to do. Those things we have put off with the intention of doing someday should be done now. Getting around to it and having good intentions are not the same as walking in obedience. Obedience means we have completed the task the Lord asked us to do. I encourage you this day to get started moving in the right direction. Yes, get started moving in a positive direction; only speak positive things about yourself and into your life. Believe God can use you.
Do not allow the enemy to cast his spirit of fear upon you. The Lord didnʹt give you a spirit of fear. Keep your eyes on the vision, don’t look back, and don’t give up. Enter into a spirit of praise and thanksgiving and begin to get excited about what the Lord is doing in your life. Keep your eyes on the vision and prayerfully move toward your goals daily. Remember, visions don’t always come to pass overnight; therefore, be patient, and just keep moving. Move beyond what your natural eyes can see.
There will be times when everything will seem to be at a standstill, and in the natural, it will look like all hope is gone. However, that is the time to press your way and keep your eyes on the Lord. Stand knowing you are more than a conqueror through Christ Jesus. Lean on the Lord for strength to fight the good fight of faith. His grace is more than enough to see you through. The Lord wants you to receive all the blessings He has for you. Take steps in obedience towards your vision, and don’t ever quit.
Donʹt just have good intentions; be a doer of the Word. Push your way past the doubt, the hurt, and the pain. The only thing that will stop the blessing God has for you is you! If you stop believing and trusting in His promises, you will miss the blessing. Put the enemy under your feet. God has given you the authority to tread upon the enemy. Go after the vision the Lord gave you in the power of His name. Shout it from the mountaintop! This is it! Enough is enough! I can do all things through Christ Jesus, who strengthens me. Let nothing stand in your way!

PRAISE FOR SHH! GOD IS TRYING TO TELL YOU SOMETHING
People see me as a successful journalist...a woman who actually owns a broadcasting company...and this is true. I am also a wife, mother, and grandmother. However, no matter how blessed a life one may appear to have, there are those times when sadness and hopelessness surround us.
Life seemed abundant to me until the day my former business (a magazine publishing company) came to a screeching halt. My business crashed and my home came close to foreclosure and I thought life could not get any worse. It could get worse...my mother died! I was on my knees begging God for an answer...for salvation…when the third punch came...my daughter was diagnosed with an inoperable brain tumor. It is easy to be faithful when times are good and it is normal to beg for help when they are bad. What is the most difficult is to stay strong, hopeful, and inspired when there just doesn’t seem to be an answer. During the darkest night of my soul, when I doubted my worth and my strength, an email message was forwarded to me. It was a simple message encouraging me not to give up. I hung onto these words like a man overboard hangs onto a life raft. In time, I contacted the author and asked to be included in her daily devotionals.
Reading Shearon Hurstʹs compassionate interpretations of biblical verses filled my heart and I began sharing them with more and more people including my daughter, who is still alive today (beyond the odds).What is so significant is there have been so many occasions that Shearon’s message comes at the exact moment of a struggle and speaks to the exact issue pressing on my heart and that of my daughter...as if she had read our minds. We believe this to be the divine inspiration.
I will be forever grateful to Shearon for being the wind beneath my broken wings. I canʹt imagine how many people there must be that her words have touched, how many lives saved. If there are living angels among us, most assuredly Shearon is one of them.

Removed my spiritual slump
I had been in somewhat of a spiritual slump when I was asked to review Shh! God Is Trying to Tell You Something: Speak Lord; I’m Listening, the new devotional journal by Christian author Shearon Hurst. Well, it was just what the Great Physician ordered to heal me from the blues and rekindle my passion to perform Godʹs work and will. In a voice that is divinely inspired, Shearon writes a daily love letter from God, cites spot‐on Scriptures, and then leaves room for readers to write how they can become better obedient to His word and thereby receive the blessings that were designed just for them. Two thumbs up for this inspiring work––followed by both hands held high in praise of the Lord Jesus Christ.
