There are fifty journal pages at the end of the book to encourage any feelings that come up to be expressed. This journey of poetry and inspiring prose includes affirmations, mantras, and Dear Self letters. This book is for anyone who has ever been lost or through dark times and wishes to be inspired.</p>
It's a collection of articles about personal life events where I believe I could see God working in them. Most of the stories were published previously in religious and spirituality journals.
