By Kathleen Godwin

Remember, you are a child of God, and God
Will take care of you.

Kathleen Godwin is passionate about inspiring others to share joy, love, hope, faith, peace, and kindness not just with themselves, but also with others.

In a debut collection of poetry, Godwin leads believers on a lyrical spiritual journey inspired by her faith in her Savior, Jesus Christ, as she reflects on all the gifts God provides on a daily basis. Her explorations touch on diverse themes that include the value of time as we journey toward our life’s destinies, the importance of simplicity and of loving our neighbors as ourselves, and how we can all become Jesus’s reporters carrying out a divine mission to share the good news with everyone who crosses our path.

Inspirational Poems and Encouragement for Everyone shares verse that reminds believers to sing praises to God and use their talents to build His kingdom on a foundation of love, joy, hope, faith, peace, and kindness.
