Diamonds in Our Days is her newest, hope-filled devotional that will lift you up inspiring you to sparkle.

In this devotional, you will learn to:

• Trust in God's promise that he will work good from those things that are bad
• Understand deeper spiritual truths that are mined from physical trials
• Face fear head-on armed with faith
• Be content resting in God's Word

You may feel like an ugly lump of coal. But like a diamond you are beloved, brilliant, and beautiful! You are multi-faceted. There are millions of diamonds but only one you. Though you may have wintery seasons when you feel more like a forgotten lump of coal, know that you are cherished and infinitely valuable!

It's no coincidence that diamonds are among the hardest substances on earth. They have endured an epic journey through crushing conditions. Their atoms have bonded together becoming saturated and strong. Together, as women, we have endured despite difficulties. While we each have experienced unique journeys, we too can bond together in faith providing us with renewed strength.

In our faith expedition through this book, we will discover how God works gut-wrenching things into gorgeous, glorious things so that you and I can emerge more beautiful with spirits that radiate hope. It's going to be a fun adventure. Be ready to laugh lots while we mine for rich spiritual truths!
