As evil runs rampant in America and the rest of the world waves of fear and dishonesty are sweeping over us causing us to not know who to trust. Friends are turning against friends, neighbors against neighbors, and family against family. What we need are sweat drops of mercy for an eternal living God to cover our lives and give us peace for today and hope for tomorrow. The poems in this book were written to encourage us to remember that there is a "Holy God" who loves us, has a plan for us, and walks with us through the fire. Our American heritage is based on this foundation. As life-changing topics of our day loom before us, they have been discussed here through the eyes of hope in our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, looking to that glorious day when the trumpet will sound and we will then be with Him in Glory forever. Wounded warriors, 9-11, respect for our President, even our National Anthem are being called into question. As each topic is discussed it is with the realization that these "Moments of Mercy" need a direct touch of mercy from a high and holy God. How do you view these issues of the day? Be the one who nurtures and builds. Be the one who has an understanding and forgiving heart. Be the one who looks for the best in people. Leave people better than you found them. Take a stand for TRUTH before it is too late. "I am the way, the TRUTH, and the life. No man comes to the Father but by me." John 14:6 KJV
