So also you have sorrow now, but I will see you again, and your hearts will rejoice, and no one will take your joy from you. John 16:22 The enemy may try to steal your joy, but know, God is much stronger than the tactics and lies sent out by the enemy. Have heart, God…

Re-purposing second hand treasures.
