Finally, a useful daily devotional!

This little book is quite inspirational. An interfaith and inter-religious guide book for daily meditations, centering, and re-focusing for those infected with HIV, those affected by HIV, caregivers, friends, and family.Some of the quotes are a bit new-agey or 12-step, but overall a wonderful and powerfully moving piece of work.Well recommended without reserve for those seeking peace and reconciliation revolving around their medical diagnosis.

Very good tool to work with in emotional support groups.

I have used this book for over a year to facilitate an emotional support group that is dealing with HIV/AIDS and it a very good tool to work with. The readings are similar to other books that I have read in any 12 step recovery program, with the exception that with this disease there is no recovery, just coping. The daily readings often open up the door to get the people that I am working with to discuss their problems and what they are doing to live one more day at a time. I would recommend this book to anyone who works with HIV/AIDS clients or the people themselves.
