Description

What readers are about to read is my biography from my pre-kindergarten years up to practically my 80th birthday and all the things that came to mind between then and now. What I found encouraging was that the Holy Spirit was with me always even though at times i Wasn't aware of it.Anytime I needed something all I'd have to do is ask, and he'd answer me within minutes. Our relationship grew stronger as I begun to count on Him more and more as He and my book brought out the memories of the past. Maybe this was God's way of telling me, 'Now that you have written about the past, you can put it behind you and look toward the brighter future I have in store fore you.' God was always blessing me through my life even though at times I never knew Him to be with me or love me as he later showed me in life. Going to Church at a young age proved worthless to me. It was only when I strengthened my relationship with Him did I come to recognize His place in my life. As I got older, I felt the need to not only tell others about Him but have an outreach ministry to the lonely or those who need just someone to talk to. In this book, I talked not only about the stresses I had in my life, but the ways I felt the Holy Spirit led me to be a good police officer coming to the aid of individuals who needed help in many ways, particularly the woman who stood on a bridge wanting to jump. The Holy Spirit taught me how to calm her spirits and talk her down and take her home. I really felt blessed.I also mention in this book how I met my wife, having children, and the pleasure each of us us had in bringing them up. The've now gone on to be very successful adults achieving top merits for their accomplishments - my son as 'Man of the Year' for his startup company, LiveWatch, a security company using computer software to protect individuals, and my daughter in the field of design management for Edward Jones Financial awarded three scholarships to attend graduate school in the fall.
