This book has been a complete blessing! It has come at a time when I feel like everything is falling apart and I am hanging by a thread. It has helped me to realize that I have not allowed myself to be completely dependent on God. In turn, this has caused me to worry when things don't go as expected. I love the prayers at the end of each chapter. I especially love the Morning Offering prayer at the end of chapter one; I now say this beautiful prayer every morning! Thank you so much Melissa for writing such a wonderful book. May God continue to bless you each and every day!
This book couldn’t have come at a better time with the issues created by the isolation caused by the pandemic. I knew the usual advice of “Be still and know that I am God” but actually going through the book, many other aspects of other scripture quotes were revealed and were so comforting. The exercises also allowed me to analyze my worry sources. I found the author’s voice sincere and compassionately honest.
I worry. Alot. This book is exactly what I needed to go forward with Faith, Hope, and Love confidently!
Ihave been a worry person everyday!! This book has been a lifesaver for me I now do more mediation & talking to JESUS & less worrying asking him to set me free. Lectio divina awesome book
Like any Ascension book, I want a pocket book version! I find myself highlighting so much because it all just speaks directly to the heart. It'll give you a new perspective on worrying, and how you can turn it into something positive. If God brings you to it, he will get you through it!
What I loved about this book is that it not only explains why we shouldn’t worry, it is a workbook to transform our thoughts-very helpful tool in our spiritual battle against worry and anxiety!
For a long time I felt stagnant in my Faith . I was at a stand still not really living my life as God made me to be. I feel I have been revitalized and head in the right. Thank you for your encouragement and prayers.
Worrying takes up so much space in your mind. I found this book frees up that space with scripture and trust.
Thank you God and Melissa

I purchased this book because the description sounded like it was written for me! The book arrived quickly and I realized it was just what I needed. Lots of guidance and, yes, there is now a rosary under my pillow foe those moments of tossing and turning in bed! In less than 48 hours, I ordered another copy to give to my son! This book is truly a Blessing!!
This book is amazing. Worry to wonder gives me hope for the future and a new way at looking at life. Two thumbs up for this book and makes a great gift for yourself or for a friend who is going through struggles in life. Truth be told we all go through struggles so why shouldn’t everyone get their hands on Worry to wonder?
This book is very helpful in handling situations that seem impossible to handle. I let God help me in a struggle of handling a particularly difficult situation. I left it to God! He handled it far better than could I. Bought the book for one of my daughters foe Mother’s Day since she was trying to help someone with anxieties.
I have been a worrier for the better part of my whole life. Until recently, I read that it is really a sin to worry since you are second guessing God's will. Not until I read "From Worry to Wonder" did I get the perspective on how to deal with my worry. The degree of the anxiety from worrying has almost gone away. Thanks to scripture and to Ms. Overmeyr I am happier about my everyday situations.
Best Regards!!
It was a wonderful book!! I would definitely recommend this book to others!!
I'm a lifelong Catholic who works as a chaplain. This was such a refreshing read providing much daily inspiration.
My book arrived yesterday and I've had it for just over 24 hours. I'm already noticing the Wonder as compared to the Worry. This book is a true gem and I highly recommend it. In fact, I logged in to order a copy for my adult son and got sidetracked writing a review. Next up - order for my son!!
As a fellow natural-born worrier who wants to be free I have found this book to be invaluable. I purchased after hearing Melissa in a couple interviews (a favorite Catholic radio show as well as a fave Catholic podcast). Her warmth and relatability drew me in and I felt God was telling me to get this book! It's been a game-changer to have the scriptures readily available when I start to fall back. Melissa gets it! I reference this book often and have marked it up so much that I don't want to loan out. I'll have to "gift" instead!
I have been battling high blood pressure for years . I was going to see my third new doctor since the battle began. The same day I started journaling in from Worry to wonder. I’m not sure how much credit I should give to the change to my medication but I know I give a great deal to this book my blood pressure is not only under control but low. I can see a difference in my attitude through what I write each day . I have already sent a copy to one of my daughters plan to send them to the other and both my sisters. Thank you to everyone who had a part in getting it to me!
