    About this ebook

    I dedicate this book to my mother who meant the world to me. I always remember telling her of thoughts I would have, and she used to say, "Write them down." So as time went by, I just wrote my thoughts down, and the enclosed words are just some of the many I have felt in my heart as I traveled this world. Some were written while I was a child in school, many after missions in the USAF, and four in particular while in Desert Shield and Desert Storm. As my mom used to say, "Many people will enter your life, some will leave footprints on your mind", and some of these were written to remind me of the many angels God has sent my way to help me along life's path. As I move toward the sunset on my time on earth, I just wanted to share some of my thoughts, for God is with us all, always!

      THE RESURRECTION IS EVERYTHING, ISN’T it? It’s a metaphor for the whole Christian life. Without it, what’s dead is just dead. Over. Finished. Buried forever. No hope of new life springing forth. But in Jesus, we have the promise that death is not the

      Reflections of the Heart, of the Mind, and of the Soul - Clarence David Jones

      A Storm of Life

      It’s quiet now

      Yet a feeling of total peace covers my soul.

      The world around me seems so still

      Even the wind dare not show its face.

      The peace I feel is that like a calm lake,

      I can see the reflections of my world before me.

      It’s one of inner peace, surrounded by the storm.

      A storm brings life to a new dimension,

      A dimension filled with love, of hope, and yes.

      Eternal happiness.

      I sense I will survive those storms of life

      For it is within my own heart that I see the light,

      And it is coming from He who once said,

      Follow me.

      Clarence David

      My Lord Is Here

      This day I walk among the clouds

      for the Lord has brought me here.

      He wants me to be near to him

      to talk away my fears.

      I am afraid, for this He knows

      that’s why He keeps me
