Poems of Faith & Inspiration


Book Description

Frogs, family and lots of fun combine to make this book of poetry a must-read by everyone who loves the funny and teachable moments we all run into. There are poems of inspiration, musings about life in general, instruction on kindness and treating others with love, understanding and respect. Never one to take credit for her own work, Joyce Folsom Johnson has written hundreds of poems over the years. Lots of them are written in tandem with our loving God who inspires her to keep getting up in the middle of the night to jot down the ideas (or full poems) He has suggested to her. These poems started out as gifts to friends and family on special occasions and to recall fun times of bygone days. Spending some time in this world brings back memories of joy and sorrow, and reminds us all to live out Jesus love. Marcia Lee Johnson Newell You take words and weave them into beautiful poetry which touch people deeply. I have admired you, and I think you are wise beyond your years. Wilma Rollins, Former School Teacher, written in 1989 Divinely inspired, encouraging, thought-provoking and at times, funny. Ever showing Gods great love for us, this book is a keeper! One to refer to for many of lifes situations. Christine Ann Johnson Morrison

Poems of Faith and Inspiration

The Love of Books The love of learning, the sequestered nooks, and all the sweet serenity of books. —Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (1807–1882) Words from the Author Virginia Henderson I pray for you to find your quiet peaceful nook when you read the words written in this book, words of faith and inspiration, to touch and bless you in every way. Why is it at certain times in life we feel that we need to be guided? I feel that we don’t need to be guided as much as we need a guide. Psalm 32:8: “I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go. I will guide you with my eye.” Now that is a great promise!
