Gruff

No hope, no future, and apparently no life was what Gruff had going for him, according to his family. Gruff exists in a constant state of physical and emotional abuse, because of this, he sits utterly alone, seemingly abandoned by life; yet, through everything, he always wonders if what he was being told by the community is true.

"You cannot stop what has now started..."

FOREWORD

Gruff is about an older reclusive character, discarded by his family and

community, as he surrenders in despair, accepting that his circumstances

are deserved and that he is born for the sole existence of all the ridicule

that he continually received.

From this simple beginning, he will be brought to an absolutely amazing

adventure, seeking the meaning and purpose of this life from God, His

Creator.

The interactions among the characters of this book make for enjoyable

reading, and there is a clear message of the purpose and sovereignty of why

God created both man and the animal kingdom.

The book clearly defines the gospel of Christ and how God moves in

His majestic power over the affairs of His wonderful creation.

We are more like Gruff oftentimes that we would like to admit. Gruff

has a clear message to all of us and that we are here for a far greater purpose

that we oftentimes are not remotely aware of.
