The role of a woman—whether a mother, a wife or a single career woman trying to find her meaning and place in the world—is ever-changing. What remain constant are the everyday challenges and temptations that test a woman’s will and faith in herself and the Lord. In response to these, OMF Literature, Inc., the foremost publisher of inspirational books, presents Thrive: Journey Into Grace, a new devotional for women.
Authors Darlene Sala, Luisa Ampil and Bonnie Sala, draw
inspiration from their own experiences and life journeys to present messages in
Thrive that speak directly to women and their daily struggles in living a
purposeful and graceful life. Each entry contains a personal anecdote and
teachings based on the Bible.
Darlene Sala shared, “Our prayer is that these readings,
these snippets of truth we’ve stumbled upon in our quieter moments with Him,
will encourage our readers to press into Him daily as they travel their own
journey into grace.”
The book contains more than a hundred entries on
forgiveness, hope, prayer, relationships, and more—each with the purpose of
encouraging women to thrive in their everyday lives. Each entry addresses
various concerns using relatable stories—on depression, decision making, love,
adversity and living in faith—lovingly written by its three women authors:
• Darlene

and co-founder of Guidelines International Ministry. She is also the author of
four bestselling books dedicated to guiding women in their everyday lives:

Noted author of Widow Connection, Miriam Neff, lauds the
Salas and Ampil for collaborating on the book: “Darlene, Bonnie and Luisa make
an inspirational, intergenerational team. Their insights are precious. Mother,
daughter, and friend – they shine together. Though separate in their life
journeys, country of origin, pain and spiritual backgrounds, they bond with
sisterhood wisdom for us all.”
