Ratings and reviews

I used to read Come Away My Beloved by Francis J. Roberts in the seventies. It was recently given to me again by a friend. Every page opend at random always speaks to me personally. I never knew she was a musician composer which I am too now later in life. This makes her even more special. Holy Spirit will touch you through this devotional.

Many years ago, an employee of my Mother's gave her a copy of this book. It quickly became a favorite, second only to my Bible. I highly recommend this book. You will find it has light for every situation you encounter and is based on scripture.

This is a book that you don't read from cover to cover just open it and it speaks to your heart! Thank God for my cousin introducing this book to me, thanks Frances
