    About this ebook

    Like the Sun in the Skies, We Rise! is a collection of passages and poetry which uniquely highlight many of the life altering experiences we have as humans. Each poem speaks of victory over adversity, hope over fear and love over hatred.

    Life can be exciting and full of wonder. It can also bring about extremely challenging and painful experiences. How do we stay hopeful during the times in the valley and how do we stay humble when we reach the mountain tops? How do we continue to grow as servants of God in a world that doesn’t always bring out the best in us? As human, we have great potential to overcome whatever tests life brings... and to grow in spite of.

    We have the innate ability to persevere through some of the worst conditions and critical circumstances. We can learn, create and overcome like no other species on this planet. We’re born survivors and can rise through it all.

    Karla Davis Mason

    Karla Davis Mason is a writer, mentor, teacher and lifetime learner. She earned a bachelor’s degree from Michigan State University and a master’s degree from Roosevelt University in Chicago, Illinois. She had the pleasure of writing and broadcasting for several news outlets before settling down in Chicago with her growing family. She has been married to her husband, Steven Mason, for over 30 years. They treasure the blessing of having three children: Steven Kord, Arielle Marie, and Connor Glenn. Karla is passionate about unifying and empowering all people, especially those who needed it most. “I feel a sense of both privilege and obligation to live with great purpose. I believe I was put here to help others use their voice and gifts in the best ways possible. I love seeing others rise in power - the kind of power that has little to do with privilege but rather strong principles. We are here to make a mark and leave this world a better place.”
