Inspirational Writings from the Creator

By Roberta Jackson

In today's world we are faced daily with choices whether good or bad, whether challenging or simplistic and in all these situations a word will either lift you higher or bring you down lower.

It is at these moments that it is particularly important what we feed our mind, body and spirit. The results will be either "thriving streams of positive living waters" or "dead streams of negative flowing waters". The choice is yours!

"Roberta has a gentle quite spirit, but her poetry brings forth a passionate boldness. She writes from a heart full to overflow of a deep abiding love of the Lord. Like cold refreshing water on a hot southern summer day, Roberta's poetry will quench the thirst of your soul."

Pastor Charles Young

"Roberta's writings are a gift from God. She allows God to use her poetry to encourage those who need a word of comfort from the Lord".

Miss Helen Garrett

"Roberta's poetry is truly inspiration for the soul!"

Ms. Rose Hamrick

"Roberta sent a poem for me to read for our annual Women's Day program entitled "Woman of God." When I first read it at home, my first thought was this is it. As I read it during our Women's Day services looking out at each of my sisters in Christ, the words took on new meaning. As I was speaking the lines, each word encouraged, uplifted and inspired all of us. That is what her writings do - they encourage, uplift, and inspire you".

Mrs. Wandalyn T. Jones
