Poetry: Words Flowing from My Heart

By Jacqueline E. McBride

Jacqueline McBride’s Poetry: Words Flowing from My Heart is inspired by her relationship with God, by her personal experiences, her mother’s love, courage, and strength, family personal trials, challenges and victories along with the trials of other people, and her study of Biblical principles. She reflects on her love and commitment to the Lord, the Grace YHVH (the God of Abraham, Isaiah and Jacob) extends to all, and the power of love to conquer fear and challenges.

With the help of these poems, you will be inspired to become the amazing person God created: a person of wisdom and knowledge through the gift of grace, given to us by Jesus Christ. You will develop a greater respect for others and enjoy your life. With the love of God, there are no limits to reaching your dreams, but you can’t always do it alone.

No two people are created the same, everyone with his or her own life experiences. Jacqueline believes we can learn from each other and become greater in our diversity. Her words encourage us to help others without expecting anything in return because the joy of giving provides peace within. This collection encourages you to laugh, awaken to new possibilities, see your purpose, and walk your destined path.
