From My Heart

Many years of writing down my thoughts, prayers, experiences and feelings from my heart have led to this collection of poems. “From My Heart” follows my first book “A Book of Psalms,” which is a poetic interpretation of each of the 150 psalms. This book is for those who need hope, love, faith, contentment, trust and most of all Jesus. It may bring tears, laughter, or a special memory of years gone by. May your heart be encouraged as you read “From My Heart.”
