Drawing Closer to God

The intent of this book is to spread the joy of the Lord to those who know Him - those who join in fellowship with others so that we can rejoice in peace, grace, rest, love and knowledge of what God has done for us. We look forward to Heaven and seeing our loved ones again. We join in fellowship with others to share the love of God with those in need and seeking the lost.

For years I have been rhyming words. My mother encouraged me in my early teens to write poetry. Through the years, I have written and lost many poems. Days were busy with a growing household; my husband, myself, three sons and one daughter. Over the years, the Lord has blessed us with ten grandchildren and four great-grandchildren I shared some of my poems with my friends Walter and Charlene Hoard.

We decided that he would make tracts out of them by adding Scriptures that fit the poems. I asked God to use me, at the age of seventy-two, to touch the lives of others with comfort and fill them with the great love that God has given me. God wakes me up early in the morning, from midnight to until 5 am, to write for Him. I know it's from Him because I am blessed when I read it. My desire is to serve God however He allows me.

This is my second book of poetry, Meditations was published in January of 2014, by Westbow Press.
