This book is a unique and easy read that helps the reader take inventory of their spiritual strengths and weaknesses. It helps the readers come to terms with many truths about our lives in the 21st century and helps them recognize the constant pull of society away from God's way. In the author's own way, he encourages the reader to reflect on the many choices we are faced with in our daily lives and leads them on a journey toward spiritual growth. ************************ I have known Jim for 20 years. I have seen him mature and grow in his faith and he expresses this especially in the poems he has written in this book. God has truly blessed him with this talent and I look forward to seeing many more books by Jim in the future. I know the readers will enjoy the messages that are revealed in Jim's writing. May God continue to bless you Jim as you write more poems. I thank God for letting me have the opportunity to know you and have you as a dear friend in my lifetime. Linda Pruden These writings are very uplifting. Some of the poems have affected me more than others but I have enjoyed reading all of them. The Lord has truly blessed Jim with this talent and I know he (Jim) will continue to inspire those who read them and hopefully write more Gayle Blevins
