Author: Anita Higman
Genre: Christian Devotional Book
Release date: February 27, 2024
Pure Joy is a profound 90-day devotional that delves into finding joy through suffering amidst life’s challenges. In the Book of James, we’re challenged to embrace our trials with “pure joy,” understanding that they lead us to a point of lacking nothing. But how can we truly embody this spirit of joy in the midst of adversity? This daily devotional takes you on a transformative journey through James’ enigmatic teachings, encouraging you to discover the profound change that occurs when we accept Christ’s power in our anguish, confusion, discontent, and hardship.

" Pure Joy" by Anita Higman is a book of devotions from the Biblical book of James. There is also a few from Proverbs. The verses are printed at the top of each devotion and there is a prayer at the end of each devotion. There is also some quotes from other Bible Scriptures. These devotions are short and a great way to start the day or end it or in between or more than one a day. I I liked that they aren't dated so you can read this book year after year. Our home Bible study group study James in the beginning of this year, so this is just like a refresher so this book will be on my nightstand by my Bible and I will be reading it more.
I received a complimentary copy from the author and these opinions are my own.

More from Anita
Life is broken. We keep trying and trying—and trying—to make something worthwhile out of life, but no matter what we do on our own, it’s still a hopelessly shattered mess. When we allow Christ to love His way into our lives, we discover this miraculous thing called grace. He can take what is fractured by sin and refashion it into a magnificent work of art. And He gives us a new lightness of heart and a livelier step. Best of all, paradise has been regained! Yes, that is us—when we journey humbly with Him.
It has been said that some of James’ inspired writings have similarities to the Book of Proverbs. So, I am hopeful you will also enjoy—Pausing for Proverbs—the little inset devotions, which are enfolded into this work.
May these ninety devotions and your journey with James flood your life with hope, ripen your faith, and transform you into a woman who knows how to dance in God’s light and His wonderful ways of joy…
