Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

I woke up one morning and something within me said "write." I ignored it at first because I had recently finished writing a curriculum on Children Bible Stories for the church's Vacation Bible School and Sunday School ministries. But the feeling lingered. I couldn't get rid of it. There was something within that urged me to write. I got a sheet of paper and picked up a pen. My hand began to glide effortlessly across the paper as if some unforeseen person was doing the writing for me. I wasn't thinking of words to say, just writing them. God was using my hand, pen and paper to convey His poetic message to the world. I told everyone that I do not write poetry unless it's on a small scale (teaching children how to) but God chose me to get messages out to the people thru poems. He is the author and finisher of these works and we must give Him the praise. I just thank Him for choosing me to help spread His Gospel through poetry.
