Didn’T You Know I Was with You All the Way?


Book Description

Meditation prompts, came about as a result of the Lord fulfilling the promise He gave to me in the book of Proverbs 24:13-14. Not long after the rededication of my commitment to serve Jesus Christ, I was gifted with His promise of wisdom with understanding. These promptings often came in the early morning hoursduring my time of communion and fellowship. I often liken these moment by moment refreshmentsas to spending time in The River of Life. His introduction of intimacy begins as a gradual stream, that journeys through chosen meadow-like valleys of insight. {I have experienced the peace of His inviting presence, as the stirrings of a brook, which flows over smooth stones that lay in its pathway}. These were quiet- captivating interludes of lively conversational thoughts, which were orchestrated by His Spirit. {It is beyond my comprehensionthat God, Who made all things, could so affectionately and purposefully lift me closer to Himself through the raising of my spiritual understanding of His ways}. As our time together progresses on, we eventually arrive at a place where the vastness of His thoughts are overwhelmingly endless. At such a view I am taken in and dispersed about by the breadth and length, depth and height of His love for me. God in all His Majesty and Splendor begins to personally instruct on what is to be unveiled of His treasury of hidden thoughts. {God releases wisdom to reproduce His thoughts in the minds and hearts that hold His affection. Meditation and prompts are fruitful twins that come from the union of God and His beloved}. God is faithfuland is without loss in His givingso when He meets with me in the early waking hours of the morning, I know that I am especially being awakened to receive what only He can giveSelah.

All the Dead Yale Men


Book Description

Originally published in 1982 to wide acclaim, The Good Son remains Craig Nova's undisputed masterpiece. This classic explored the complicated entanglements of fathers and sons —expressed in the story of nouvue–riche father Pop Mackinnon, who used his wealth to manipulate his son Chip into the 'right' kind of marriage upon the young man's return from World War II. Chip eventually gave up the love of his life and married to secure his future – and what were the consequences of that decision? All the Dead Yale Men answers that question in telling the story of Frank Mackinnon, son of Chip, a prosecutor in Boston with a happy marriage and a daughter set to follow his footsteps into law school. Chip's death throws Frank into his family's legacy, where he must contend with the inheritance of the Mackinnon's beloved land and a bevy of secrets that dates back three generations. And when Frank's daughter Pia falls under the sway of local bad boy Aurlon Miller, his grief over his father's death triggers the family legacy of social standing and manipulation to begin anew, leading Frank to the darkest edges of what a father will do to protect the ones he loves. All the Dead Yale Men examines the end of an era, how privilege and inheritance often crumble in the face of the modern world, a story enriched by the setting and mythology of Boston and its surroundings. The novel not only moves the Mackinnon's story forward but will recast historical elements of the classic novel as well, heralding the arrival of a new American classic.
