From the Author
This collection of verse was inspired from occurrences in the spiritual life of myself and others. This world which God has created for us is most often filled with the conflicting emotions of both sorrow and joy. Many times, events in our lives seem like a two sided coin mirroring both of these two emotions. God?s spirit within us makes the heartaches bearable and the joys intense!
