What’s New At Create With Joy?
Come Empty by Saundra Dalton-Smith
If you are in a place in life where you could use rest,
Healing and refreshing from life’s hurts, and a fresh outpouring of
God’s presence and love in your life, may I recommend
Come Empty – Pour Out Life’s Hurts And Receive God’s Healing Love?
In this amazing book, Dr. Saundra invites you to
Take a 50 Day Challenge where you will
Pick devotions that speak to your situation,
Spend time in prayer and
Experience God’s peace, healing and wholeness.

Inspire Me Monday #216 – Week Of February 28, 2016
I like the idea of Inspiration Monday.
Monday’s often get the short end of the stick
But they are fraught with potential!
