About this ebook
Andrea E. McDowell
I dedicate my writing to my late mother (Jeannette Strong Phillips). Inspired by the faith that she exhibited through her battle with cancer and heart disease, I expressed my feelings through poetry and preaching. Inspirational Poetry is eloquently expressed in content, style and meaning. It is a collection of verse that certainly lives up to its title. The verses are well-written, uplifting, and meaningful, and nowhere are these more evident than in “Hold On” and “Do Not Quit”. If you are at the end of your rope, Do not quit I have got some hope; If things have got you down, Do not quit because God is around. Many of the verses are poetic reminders of God’s spiritual and material gifts to the world, as in “Blessings”. The blessings from God are joy divine, The blessings from heaven are yours and mind; The blessings from God are peace within, The blessings from heaven are ours to win. God’s importance in my life is without question, but this collection also reveals that I hold dear to my heart friends and family. A mother is someone who needs a rest, A mother is someone who you can depend; A mother is someone who is your friend, A mother is someone who God has chosen.
