    About this ebook

    God gives us all a story to tell during sad times, happy times, and glad times. We make endure many struggles in life, but we know the outcome is none other than victory!

    We must fight the good fight. Some of you may not have found your way, but I pray that you find wisdom from one of the writings or poems that were laid on my heart to convey. Just know that you are somebody special and God has a plan for your life. If you are on the detour road, be happy that you can map your way back by way of the cross.

    I can only be true to myself and thank the Almighty God for the revelation that He has chosen to impart through my delivery to you. Remember, the blessings of the Lord are forever present. Just reach outward and upward and grab them every day!

    God loves you, and I do too!

      FOREWORD

      I dedicate this book of poetry and writings to my family and friends. I cherish the family unit because it was intended to be close to God—it is what He chose for mankind. He wanted us to live in harmony and obedience to His will. With the entrance of sin through Adam and Eve, the family was blemished. Satan has tried to destroy the family since the beginning of time, but he cannot succeed.

      Because of the shed blood of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, the family can reclaim the purpose for which God intended it—to be saved and not lost, to be whole and not incomplete, to be unique and not undistinctive, to love and not hate, to cherish and not devalue, to teach and not clarify, to learn and not absorb, to laugh and not be amused, to play and not enjoy, to give birth and not take away, and then to sleep eternally to not burn everlastingly.

      We are often faced with many challenges and obstacles in life, but God is faithful to make a way of escape for each of us. Oh, how magnificent and sovereign is our God.

      It is my heartfelt anticipation that you will be blessed and your needs will be met through the empowerment of words that God has chosen to speak through the author.
