God Has His Hands On Me

This book of poems is about everyday living, faith, hope, love and trust in our Lord and Savior.

In the early 1990s, the author began writing a poem to her teenage daughter and did not complete it until early 2011. Now she knows why God allowed her to finish it at that time: because her daughter was no longer with her on earth. Her daughter and two granddaughters were killed in an automobile accident on June 28, 2003.

Since the completion of that poem, God has blessed and inspired her to write one poem after another, morning, noon or night, before putting the paper and pen to rest. She believes and knows that God has His Hands on her and her desire is to help others who may be going through something and to show them that God loves us all. Keep leaning and depending on Jesus, because He can bring you to and through life storms plus it is all about Him, anyway!
