Dedication

I started this book in March 2006 not knowing where it would end up. Two years later I finished it, although I mainly worked on it during the summer of 2006 and fall of 2007. I would like to take the time to thank The One who made this book possible. God has inspired me greatly to write, and it is by His power that I am able to write. He has put the words in my fingers so that I can finish my first novel. The main inspirational message behind In Peril’s Way is that God will not let us Christians down and that, even when it seems like all is hopeless, God is faithful to those of us who have become His child. And we know that God causes all things to work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to His purpose. (Romans 8:28).

This book is also dedicated to my wife, Magda. She is a great helpmate for me, and I am very thankful to have her in my life, during all of the life’s ups and downs. I look forward to writing more books with her help and encouragement and to encourage her as she also starts writing.
