My Heart, Christ's Home: 100 Days of Joy and Strength in Jesus
()
About this ebook
Have you ever asked yourself, "Does God really know me?"
How about "Who did God create me to be?"
Or, "Where is God when I need Him most?"
I know I have. So did David. He spent a lot of time running for his life from King Saul. He made mistakes but loved God with all his heart. Sometimes he was asking for God's intervention in his current circumstances while at other times he was praising God.
However, no matter how each Psalm started, they always ended with faith in God, worshiping God, and declaring His praises.
This is often what happens to me. Much of the poetry comes out of what I am dealing with at the moment whether it be depression, struggling with my identity, frustration or joy, wonder, and strength.
No matter what I am dealing with I know that I can turn to God and He will listen. He will hear my prayers.
We all have various trials and things that we deal with that can be extremely difficult.
However, if you reach out to God, He is right there waiting for you. God is with you every day even when it doesn't feel that way. God is right in front of you ready to guide you.
He created everything including you and me. If you look and listen your eyes, ears and your heart will be opened. It says in God's Word, "in this world we will have trouble. But take heart. I have overcome the world." (John 16:33). However, as long as I abide in Him and take my rest and my strength in Him, I know that I can get through anything. And, so can you.
Throughout this book, I address questions such as "Does God really know me?" and "Who did God create me to be?" or "Is God really listening?"
In My Heart, Christ's Home, you will find christian poetry about faith, devotions about joy and much more. Like David's Psalms that speak to you in many different ways, my poetry comes from an open heart crying out to God and praising God in the midst of my circumstances.There are 100 poems that matter because they address many of our questions of faith including spiritual warfare, faith, hope, worship, identity, and more.
God lives in our hearts if we ask him in. That's why I called this book My Heart, Christ's Home. It's because that's where he resides, He is just waiting for us to open up every room of our hearts and minds to His love and His healing power. God is not safe, but He is good and He is righteous. He is waiting for you.
Some of the poems are free verse and others rhyme. But all are tied to a specific scripture verse.
My prayer for you, as you read this, is that this book will help draw you closer to God. Don't be afraid to ask God the tough questions. He can take it. He loves you more than you can ever imagine.

What is one of your favorite devotional books?
Max Lucado's Grace For the Moment is one of my favorite devotional books. Although, I love all of his books. I also love books by Helen Steiner Rice.
Where do you get your inspiration?
My inspiration comes from my relationship with God. Learning to listen for His voice and being able to answer the question "who did God create me to be?" have been key to understanding His purpose for me.
