    About this ebook

    The Gifts of God’s Grace is about accepting life as a gift from God.

    This is about letting God lead in good times and bad. It’s a book of inspired short stories about the everyday life of your average person. These are short stories of exhortation, of encouragement, and of learning to rest in God, for he is our inner strength. Any and every situation of life is a gift—a gift of God’s grace. God is on our side, but God is leaving the outcome of our battles, our issues, our pain, and our frame of mind to us to see what we will do with ours. Do and trust God, or faint under circumstances and eventually die. The choice is ours.

    The Gifts of God’s Grace is a book written to show how to turn the negative into positive. It is a simple book that will minister not only to adults in similar situations, but to teens and even younger readers. It is a book everyone can understand, with God’s Word for explanation.

    Nancy Tedford Oliver

    Nancy was born in Pontotoc, Mississippi. At age twelve, she received Jesus into her heart. She doesn’t consider herself to be religious, but she loves the Lord and has accepted Jesus into her heart. She believes that we all can depend on God’s grace for the hope of our calling. As a young Christian, she would assist her youth leader with programs for the Wednesday night services. She loved leading the children’s choir and singing in the choir and in other groups. In years past she was an active soloist. After her mother’s death, she recorded some of her mother’s original songs in her memory. She’s just a local girl, and she doesn’t want to be anything else. She’s a family-oriented person. Her husband, children, grandchildren, great-grandchildren, and siblings are all a big part of her life. She’s just living and being happy in the grace of God.
