About this Item

Print on Demand. This book is a collection of deeply personal messages from the author to those in prison. Steeped in symbolism and metaphor, it begins by describing how the arrival of Easter and spring has lifted the author's spirits, bringing with it thoughts of new life and fresh hope. The author then goes on to expound upon the symbolism of the Christ of Calvary and the risen Lord, seeking to relay the message that there is hope for all, even in the darkest of times. The author invites her readers to look up and hope, finding comfort and love, sympathy and hope, from above. The author shares her conviction that comfort and love, sympathy and hope, can come from above, and the dear Sun of Righteousness, with healing in His wings and life in His touch, can transform. Inspired by the beauty of nature, the author presents the message that while the past is dead, it can still bear fruit, teaching lessons that can make the future brighter, stronger, and better. True hope, the author asserts, is not found in worldly ambitions or earthly affections, but rather in the touch of the risen Lord, a touch that brings life and everlasting life. The book concludes with a plea for those in prison to seek a loving, living, personal Savior who can lead them to a new, glad, and holy life. A life that can be read and known by its pureness, strength, truth, and victory. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.

The author then goes on to expound upon the symbolism of the Christ of Calvary and the risen Lord, seeking to relay the message that there is hope for all, even in the darkest of times. The author invites her readers to look up and hope, finding comfort and love, sympathy and hope, from above. The author shares her conviction that comfort and love, sympathy and hope, can come from above, and the dear Sun of Righteousness, with healing in His wings and life in His touch, can transform. Inspired by the beauty of nature, the author presents the message that while the past is dead, it can still bear fruit, teaching lessons that can make the future brighter, stronger, and better. True hope, the author asserts, is not found in worldly ambitions or earthly affections, but rather in the touch of the risen Lord, a touch that brings life and everlasting life.
