About this ebook
Insight into how we relate to our world and to one another is the theme of these twenty-five poems. The world is beautiful, but it requires us to face our common realities with courage and grace. A gentle sense of humor can be helpful, although some things are not funny. Painful truth is treated here with respect; however, it is probed with an honest eye. These thoughtful reflections are developed within the paradigm of faith and with trust in the divine plan.
John Lowstreet
John Lowstreet's first book is about the beatitudes, because in them Christ has made a plain declaration of what He expects of us. Christ is not complicated. He is profound, however. John has spent his life trying to know God personally and to more deeply undertand God. His one quest is to have more experiences with God. John studied the Bible to find God, and as he found Him, grew to love Him. His writings and poems reflect deeply held convictions about the character of God and the importance of Jesus Christ.
