if you feel lost in struggle, this book is for you

If you've ever felt that something is missing in your life, if you've felt the ache that you were made for more, this book is for you. Through the pages of In Want and Plenty, Meredith invites her readers to pause in the middle of that ache, to search for God's provision in small ways, to see His goodness, to listen to what He may be saying through the ache. In her gentle way Meredith McDaniel walks readers through the story of Exodus, drawing powerful parallels between the experience of God's people then and our lives right now. God plans for His people include life, freedom, abundance, the exact opposite of their experience in Egypt. But it took some wilderness wandering before they trusted in His provision and care for them. It took time for them to let go of the comfort of the familiar even though God's plans were infinitely greater. In the same way, we cling to the familiar in our own lives, our own Egypt, even if it is not good for us. If you feel that your story isn't going the way you'd imagined, if you feel lost in hardship and struggle, if you want to believe that God is with you, but you just don't see Him, if you wonder if He really loves you, this book is for you. It is possible to experience the goodness of God, even in the desert.

Deepen your appreciation

Starting from the want we all feel in life at some point, Meredith McDaniel, in In want + plenty walks the reader through how to recognise and appreciate the manna God provides each day. She shares her hope that “using the book of Exodus as our guide, we will travel together on a narrative journey—a quest if you will—to trace the hand of our Creator throughout a 440-plus-year wilderness.” It is a familiar narrative but, using her psychology background, Meredith shares new truths nestled in this historic journey. Throughout the book deep, reflective questions are shared and there is plenty to ponder on. This is not one to rush but to rather to relax into and savour. In learning to appreciate our daily manna, Meredith shares several practices to achieve a sense of peace. I loved these elements to the book. Meredith goes on to tackle a difficult part of living the plentiful life, coping when hard time strike the ones we love. She shares several case studies and, through stories, she shows us how to live through the pain whilst drawing on God's power to get us through, drawing on His provision and love. It's inspiring and hope-filled. I loved this one from start to finish and will be referring to it in the future. If you are looking to move from the “want” culture of the world to the “plenty” one of God, this book will show you how and deepen your appreciation for both the manna given by God daily and the journey the Israelites went through. It's a five out of five on enJOYment scale and highly recommended.
