A Collection of God's Word and Motivation


Book Description

A Collection of Gods Word and Motivation is a book about encouragement and practical situations that people can relate to. It is not just any ordinary book, but an antidote for curing worries, depression, stress, and struggles. Gods word is powerful and encouraging. It was written to help others who need encouragement. We cant go through life without encouragement, and we definitely cant go through life without self-encouragement. There are times when we dont have the energy to complete our daily tasks, so we look for some type of humor from our friends, family, or even co-workers. We choose to be happy or sad, mad or neutral. A dose of encouraging words can help release that ticking bomb thats in your head, ready to explode. Tension and stress arent healthy. Thats why God said to give all of our worries, troubles, and burdens to Him. Let the nourishment of His encouraging words shine upon your heart.




In the Midst of the Storm


Book Description

Mother Nature is the most photographed subject in the world. Storms have captured media attention for centuries. Many storm chasers have risked their lives to get an up-close photograph of a hurricane or tornado. The painting on this cover was chosen because it symbolizes the many storms of life that I have experienced. I have been painted literally standing on the Bible to give an illustration of how I spiritually stood on the Word of God and his promises in the midst of the storm. Even as the artist painted this cover on his canvas, he experienced storms in his life. He continued to paint through the storm. He explained to me his vision for this cover and told me that his life was an open canvas, and he went on to say, God is continuing to paint a picture my life. My prayer is that my speech and my preaching be not with enticing words of mans wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of the power. I pray that my pen would be that of a ready writer and would encourage others as I write In the Midst of the Storm. Charles Dickens

Worried Warrior

Not wanting to deal with the emotions that would resurface, letting her know a part of her was broken, Janiece decided to take her healing into her own hands, desperate to be whole again. Not even she could have prepared her for where the journey would lead her. She was in for many twists and turns as she traveled down the slippery slope of her new healing journey. Her desperation to feel whole again led her to accept a hidden identity that she quickly became engulfed by. Disregarding her Christian background and the God she thought had let her down, she now relied on her newly discovered spiritual gifts, tarot reading, healing crystals, and rituals to find the healing she was searching for. It didn't take long to realize her newfound journey wasn't going the way she intended nor did it offer the things it promised, but she was too deep in it to find her way out. An unforgettable encounter, psychosis, and rock bottom helped her realize the healing and wholeness she was desperate to find was in the very person the new journey had turned her away from: Jesus.
