Seeking the Light

Poet Ana Lisa de Jong’s book Seeking the Light is the third volume, in the Poetry for the Soul Series, accompanied by Hope Springs and Songs in the Night.  This volume of poetry is a beautiful closing chapter, to the compelling poetic voice that rings through all three books.  Songs in the Night, speaks of God’s enduring love through the seasons of life. Hope Springs testifies to the hope that ‘springs eternal’ regardless of our joys and sorrows, wins or losses.  And finally Seeking the Light reminds us of the relentless light that is constantly breaking through and finding us, illuminating our pathway, our lives, and our wounded-ness, showing us our wholeness and our security in the light of God’s love for us.  Seeking the Light is a book that affirms us where we are, but does not leave us there.  Encouraging, relatable, healing in its honesty and insightful wisdom, it opens the door for the light to enter the dark crevices of our hearts, pour balm on our wounds, and uplift our spirits.  In Seeking the Light we feel seen by God, accepted and cherished.  We are assured of his presence on our pilgrimage towards him.  Ana Lisa’s third volume, is a wonderful closing book to a very special series,   poetry bound to enrich the faith walk of any who read its pages.
