Ggg: The Glory

By Michelle Prewett

The author has arranged this book in such a way as to divide it into categories so that the readers will get the maximum benefit and experience of it. First, the enormous grief and pain during times of betrayal, divorce, and broken homes that affect all members of the family. This first part of grief highly focuses on relationships where there is dysfunction and abuse and, overall, love that has been lost.

Volume 2 will focus on issues of struggle with time and with money, issues that we face in this life such as death, the overall character of the man, his body, his talents, his gifts, and where Jesus comes in to place in his life. Issues of morality, the world, and justice are also touched upon. Heroes and the thirst for righteousness as well as overall prayers and supplications to the Almighty will be addressed in the second volume. There will also be prayers and short poems that are brief but, in their brevity, stress a main point.

Finally, in the third volume of the book will be a collection and compilation of current events and all-time favorites of the poet’s choosing, representing the mastery, skill, and talent that has been bestowed on the writer. One’s senses will be heightened and enlightened with effortless enjoyment experienced by the readers. It is highly advised that the readers purchase all three volumes to get the maximum effect of the whole process so they can better relate to each poem.

The readers will be taken upon a journey first of betrayal, lost love, sorrow, and death, and in a sense, dying of oneself. The next volume will focus on encouragement and prayers, even though some do not understand why they are going on their specific journey. The grace in volume 2 cannot be denied and can only be dealt once the grief is experienced. It is so blatant that it seems to jump off the pages with healing power. And finally, volume 3 is the pinnacle of God’s glory demonstrated by a compilation of all-time favorites chosen by the poet herself as well as all the troubling current events that are occurring in the world at this time.

It is the author’s desire that the persons reading this compilation of poems focus on all the volumes because each has immense beauty and meaning. It is for this reason that it would be her honor and desire that you purchase all three to get the maximum benefit of the process, keeping the end result in mind.
