Synopsis
"The theme of this third book of poetry is sewing seeds of faith. The author believes that her job is to do just that, sew seeds of faith through her writings that are food for thought and inspirational Writing poetry is a gift from God that Winifred Smith Eure cherishes and hopes to always develop during this time in her life. She shares that the coming years mark the “evening” of her life as so eloquently described by a former assistant pastor of her church. By “evening” she paraphrases that he meant that period of time before the ending when one leaves this earth to be joined with loved ones in heaven. Of course no one knows how long a period of time this “evening” will be.The author trusts that readers of Thread of Faith, male or female, young or old, and of any ethnic background, will thoroughly enjoy the simplicity and sincerity, with which she presents it for public reading. This book is still another attempt to encourage, uplift, inspire, entertain readers and sew seeds of faith."
