Abundant Fruit pulled me in right away. From the author’s personal anecdotes in each section to the beautiful cover to the size of the book (anyone else a busy mom with little time to read?), this book makes it easy and enjoyable to learn about and grow in the fruit of the Spirit Highly recommend!” -Julie

This twenty-eight-day devotional directed toward mothers encourages a healthy personal journey of spiritual enlightenment through God. Wayne relates to mothers with universal topics, yet elevates through concise and incisive talk: feelings of joy compared to happiness, finding patience when suffering, and adopting an overall child-like faith—full of innocence, trust, and love. These are core Christian beliefs that St. Paul himself would inspire in others. The author mirrors common traits of the mother—gentleness, patience, kindness, love—creating a devotional reflecting these aspects by filling each day with unique challenges, meditations, and strength-building suggestions. Faith-based, yes, but Wayne’s is an inclusive approach to the motherhood and her impact as center of the family that anyone could relate to and absorb. This will help a mother affirm her role and supply the family with words of inspiration and gentleness, reminding them that their spiritual needs are important to nurture as well as other basic needs.
