Take a journey of faith through these personal Psalms, born of a young woman’s desire to find purpose and self-acceptance.Author’s IntroductionI am so glad you have picked up a copy of this book!I discovered poetry in my mid-teens; studying English Literature was a revelation and I had the privilege of having my poetry first published as one of the winners of a young writer’s poetry competition run by Radio One. It became a life goal to eventually publish a book of poetry penned by my own hands...As life took over, my dream was put to one side and only resurfaced when I hit the ripe old age of fifty! Suddenly, the desire bubbled to the surface again and I realised that it was still a passion of mine - and TIME.Even though most of these poems were written many years ago, they still have the power to move me deeply. Some give you access to my darker experiences, but I chose to be vulnerable and to include these as part of the picture. I have survived times of deep sadness, confusion and ’lostness’, but in learning how great God is in these times, I have become a happy lady, with a bubbly personality and a cheerful disposition. Who knew that I would turn out like this?My hope is that the words in this book will speak to you, speak for you, make you laugh, and bring you hope - and perspective. For those struggling with daily life, I’ve been there too. I can tell you - it DOES get better - with God and with time. Life’s journey has been meaty, but beautiful, and I’m a better person for the times of struggle and wilderness.If a poem speaks to you, I’d love to hear about it. Be encouraged and don’t give up.Jo
