As life’s journeys take us in many directions, we need to stay focused. These poems take us on a spiritual journey by presenting encouraging words that can help direct our path. It gives us a purpose in knowing that one’s life has meaning. It reminds us of the love and kindness that we experience each day. It helps us focus on everything and be grateful for all Adonai has given—the good with the bad. This is all to make us better servants of Adonai to uplift and build up others more than ourselves. This book reminds us to be gracious, kind, and loving towards one another; reminds us that others see the good in us—even during times we don’t see it. The poems relate to people whose paths the author has crossed; family relations; prayer confessions; and always remembering the military service members fighting for our country.
