Carol Hamblet Adams, author of the inspiring bestseller My Beautiful Broken Shell (over 130,000 copies sold), returns to the comfort of the ocean's rhythm and explores the joys of sandcastle moments--today's simple pleasures.

Surrounded by Gay Talbott Boassy's cheery watercolors of beach treasures, readers are invited to

  • pray through troubled times
  • seek refreshment in everyday miracles
  • build dreams on God's serene shore
  • live "in the moment"
  • allow the future to rest on the horizon

Each insight from the shore beckons those caught up in day-to-day busyness to sink to their knees, embrace a youthful spirit, and create a fortress of hope.

5.0 out of 5 stars Another great book from a talented writer

Another great book from a talented writer. It was on a whim I decided to order this book after reading "Shells". It encourages the reader to not get caught in the daily humdrum of life, but look at the blessings and wonders God bestows on us each and every day.
I told a friend about this book; she shared with me sandcastles had been a special part of the relationship with her son when he was young. Instead of keeping this treasure, I sent it to my friend and ordered myself another one. She too found this book to be a special blessing and said she would read it over and over. For me as a Christian, it has given me another opportunity to witness and share my faith in another medium.

I gave this book to my Mother-In-Law as a follow up to My Beautiful Broken Shell which she found very helpful in dealing with the deaths of her Oldest Brother, Mother, and Youngest Brother with in a 42 day period all after prolonged illnesses. She commented that both books provided her with the comfort and peace that she needed. She refers to them daily as she tries to put her life back together and find a new routine that doesn't include daily visits to the hospital or nursery home any longer. My Beautiful Sandcastle Moments reminds her to find the beauty of the moment and not dwell on what was and to have hope for what lies ahead. PERFECT for anyone going through something.

Carol's experiences and the way she writes them gives not only encouragement but a reminder about how short and fragile life is and what really matters. In reading her Sandcastle Moments one realizes how far away one has come from enjoying the beauty of the gifts of God around us. He has given us these precious gifts to draw us closer to Him, to stop each day and rest awhile, to be refreshed in mind, soul, and body. Carol has a talent for describing things around her in such a way that the reader shares the moments with her as if actually present, experiencing the sights, sounds, and smells of the ocean.

Believe it or not, I just got the book two days ago. It's been weeks since I ordered it, and really had forgotten about it, since I ordered several of them from several vendors. Shipping is SLOW to say the least. But the product is well worth it. I love giving this book out to friends that I know have some real issues in their life. It's a great inspiration to read. So, I keep some on hand for that you never know when you need it gift...absolutely love the book.
