Come Bless the Lord

By Robin D. Alston

This book is written in times in my life when I went through separation and divorce and how I battled with mental illness. It is about the gamut of emotions I’ve experienced and how the Lord has brought me peace and healing through forgiveness of myself and my forgiveness of others. It is a book about Restoration. I believe that the poems and songs contained in this book can be used as a tool to bring healing and wholeness to others who may have suffered similar experiences which are often compounded by stressful life events. I feel that this book can be an inspiration for others to reach out Jesus Christ for the healing that we all seek.
This book is about how God came into my life after I sought him and asked him to become the spiritual authority and guide in my life. As God began to reveal his principles for living and I began to diligently seek answers to some of life’s questions, he revealed the redemptive power of his saving grace; and he has begun to bring about the emotional healing and restoration of peace I believe we all seek.
