Flo Powell was a prolific writer. She constantly jotted her thoughts on pieces of paper; however, she considered these as notes for her own benefit. She kept a few notebooks that collected material over the years, and the major part of this collection comes from those notebooks. Words greatly influence the human psyche. Words incite emotions; emotions that control our lives and calm or arouse our soul. Words can make us happy or sad; angry or joyful. Words can cause war or incite a riot; create peace or even restore calm. Some people have a way with words; they can control their words to greatly affect our lives. Flo Powell used the written words for devotionals, prayers, poems and short meditations to ease the mind, soothe the soul and offer a sense of stability to relieve the stress and aggravation; the trials and tribulations in our everyday lives. She was truly an inspiration, and her words of comfort have an unusual soothing peaceful aura that creates a calm in each of us.
