Come Empty By Saundra Smith



When a water vessel is filled with dirt and stones, it cannot be used to quench a thirst. But, when this vessel is emptied, there is an opportunity to fill it until it overflows with fresh, cool, life-giving water. Water that quenches. Refreshes. Soothes. Our souls are the same: filled with fear, doubt, and disappointment. Running over with unanswered prayers and lingering questions. When we empty the mess of our lives in the presence of God, we're offered an invitation to come. An invitation that allows us to come empty - so that we can be filled until we overflow. Come Empty - Pour Out Life's Hurts and Receive God's Healing Love guides you through eightly days of experiencing the fullness of God's love and His ability to overcome life's hurts. Each day, you will receive assurance of God's presence in your difficult situations. Each devotion gives new vision and perspective when you're hindered by emotional blind spots, and leads you to experience God's peace and wholeness. When His invitation is accepted, He will set your captive mind and heart free to live fully by His grace. The question is not if you will get an invitation. The question is, will you come?

Come Empty is a 80 day devotional. The book starts with two chapters to read and then It starts the daily devotionals. Each devotional has three parts, Your heart's cry, the Bible verse and then God's reply. This is not your typical devotional.  I really enjoyed reading the devotionals because they discuss some difficult topics. I would recommend this devotional for everyone especially someone that is new to the faith. This devo. may help answer some questions that new Christians may have in there walk and draw them closer to the Lord.
I give this book 4 stars and it would make a nice gift.
I was given a copy of this book by the publisher for my honest review.
