What’s Inspiring You This Week?
Here’s What’s Inspiring Me…

Inspiration From God’s Word
Weeping may endure for a night,
But joy comes in the morning.
Psalm 30:5

Psalm 30-5 Joy Comes In The Morning

Art Source: Inspired Anyway

Devotion Of The Week
Lori – Distressed – Dingy Or Distinctive?

Joy In The Journey

Sometimes I feel distressed…
Sometimes I’m damaged too…
(But) Faith tells me distressed and damaged is not
Discarded and defeated.

Lori is the author of
Joy In The Journey –
Encouragement for Homeschooling Moms

A resource I highly recommend!

Book & Giveaway Of The Week
Wrestling With The Devil by Lex Luger

Wrestling With The Devil

I am not into sports and wrestling –
But I love stories of those who walk away from lives of
Death and destruction and find new life in Christ!

If you love autobiographies and powerful testimonies,
Be sure to check out this book!

This giveaway is open to US residents.
Other giveaways are listed on my sidebar!

Inspire Me Monday

I like the idea of Inspiration Monday.
Monday’s often get the short end of the stick
But they are fraught with potential!
Judy Palmer

    Thanks so much for hosting!

    I’m inspired by my mom. She passed away unexpectedly May 1. As I reflect on her life more and more, I’m amazed by her unwavering faith in God and the grace with which she handled the pain she was in. She’s my hero.

    I love the verse “Weeping may endure for a night, but joy comes in the morning.” Psalm 30:5

    That defines my life right now. And God does give joy, even in the sorrow.
