Book Description

Could you use a joy infusion?

When was the last time you had a spontaneous laugh because your heart was absolutely overwhelmed with joy?

Whether you’re facing mundane routines or painful hardships, joy often feels out of reach. But those who know Jesus can live joyfully, no matter what—it’s a gift that can only come from God. Jesus engulfs His followers with great love so that He may fill them with His joy.

Bestselling author Sheila Walsh invites you to discover daily joy. Through funny and inspiring stories, powerful takeaways, and encouraging scriptures, Sheila shows that joy sometimes comes from gratitude, God’s beautiful creation, grace, or simply delighting in God’s goodness and love. And it always comes from spending time in Jesus’ presence. He brings life, restoration, and . . . joy!

The 5 Minutes with Jesus series is the perfect way to start your day with a joyful heart.

My Review


5 Minutes with Jesus: A Fresh Infusion of Joy by Sheila Walsh and Sherri Gragg is an inspiring devotional. Each chapter has a devotional, a key phrase then it also has bible readings that reflect the devotional. 5 Minutes with Jesus: A Fresh Infusion of Joy is similar to other books in this series by Sheila Walsh. The book is aimed at women. It is a great devotional if you only have 5 minutes a day to spare to have a devotional time with God.

5 Minutes with Jesus: A Fresh Infusion of Joy would be a great book for yourself or as a gift for a friend. It is very inspiring book if the reader is looking for joy through forgiveness of others. Finding joy and happiness is key to a balanced and happy life. 5 Minutes with Jesus: A Fresh Infusion of Joy is a great tool to send you in the right direction.

I think that you will find this book very inspiring.
