Straight from the Heart

At least once in our life time, our lives will be touched in ways we may not want and in others that we are so thankful.

Everyone has a story to tell whether good or bad, and you want to share lest it be swept under the rug.

I've often found myself alone until I got down on my knees and began to pray, leaving the problem of all situations in God's hands.

This book of poems represents that.

You'll find prayer as it had always been taught and had not utilized it till you were at the end of the road, just like the ones in this book, young and old.

Even though We don't know the thoughts of babies and people lost in their minds, truth be said God does. He's here with us through it all. We may not see change right away, but it will come patience with prayer, faith and trust in God. Remember God has a plan. In this book there are crossroads, asking God what direction should be taken, there are many stumbling blocks along the way. You'll see pictures in this book that close out the poems, allowing you to become one. As You settle down, I want You to realize this Journey is of real people's lives, you'll see you are not the only one. The words will allow you to know that God was there in that moment, you may even find Him with you in your time. Your heart will know what was asked of God, the answer's that connect you. At the end of these poems, you may recognize your crossroads among these words, straight from my heart.
