Touching The heart of god
I authored this book to aid in the building of strong relationships between man and God. This is an attempt to give direction and help to all humankind. My book was also written to help build a strong communication line with God, if you will, not only in troubled times but also in good times. It demonstrates a way to reach the heart of God via pray, praise, poems, and many other helpful ways. My book also offers a way to learn more about God and how to deal with life. We must appreciate the blessings of the Lord in the trying times as well as the blessed good times. My book was also written to be used as a teaching tool to aid in learning more about the word of God. This can be accomplished via of studying biblical scriptures and learning more of many biblical events that took place in the bible.
I want people to know of God’s goodness, kindness and mercy and know that we can call on God in time of trouble for help and direction. We need to know how to communicate with God and all the many ways that He has provided. We can talk to God, pray, read the holy bible, sing praises, and meditate. These are some of the many ways that we can build a close relation with the Lord.
When we read our bible we learn of God and all of His many blessings that He has in store when we learn of him and trust and believe. We must be obedient and determined to know God for ourselves and build an intimate relationship.
Touching The Heart of God is an informative tool to learn of God and know His many acts of love, to lead and guide us through the turmoil of life. He tells us how we should live our lives in order to get the best out of life.
We must trust and love the Lord in order to get the “Joy” that He has instore for us when we are obedient, trusting and have strong belief! “God Is Truly Alive, He’s Not Dead!”

WHY I WROTE WON’T HE DO IT
Our Lives Are Predestined By God!
I authored this book to let others know their worth and why they should not give up on their dreams and aspirations. We all know that life can be challenging, but we must not give up on our ambitions and dreams, no matter how tough life gets. Always remember that we have the advantage because we have God on our side. We must trust Him and believe because in the end we win. Even so one must have confidence and determination as well as skills. One must get all the education and knowledge that you can regarding the career you pursue. You must be equipped for any and all uphill battles. Remember even though you have all of the necessary knowledge and skills, it does not mean that you will not be overlooked for a promotion, when attempting to make a career lateral move. This can be an obstacle, but one must not let it stop one’s determination, to continue striving for greater opportunities.
Life can be full of disappointments however; one must be an overcomer when obstacles get in their way. One must keep striving and not ever give up. Always remember no matter what things look like there is nothing is too hard for God. We must trust Him and believe. When we don’t trust God and believe the word of God, we create problems for ourselves. That is part of the problem, we must have faith in God. We must talk to the Lord to keep him involved with all life situations. We must also keep striving and growing in our education to keep ourselves marketable for any position that becomes available in our profession. Make sure that your resume is intact and remains among the highly qualified when it comes to pursuing a promotion in your field. Stay focused, as you know, this can be a continued uphill battle.
You may be turned down when applying for a position that you are well qualified for and someone less qualified gets the position. This can be very disheartening and disappointing, but don’t give up. Keep striving for God’s best, we must stay in the struggle and not give up. Things sometime unfold in mysterious ways, but it can work in our behalf when we know our higher being, I mean really know Jesus Christ. His name is above every name, when we let go and let God there is no stopping us.
He will continue to fight any uphill battle that occurs in our life. However there is one stipulation, we must trust and believe the battle is not ours it is the Lord. We sometimes keep trying to do things our way instead of letting go and letting God. We must wait to see what His plan is for our lives. We sometimes get in God’s way by insisting to do things our own way. We must remember God already has a perfect plan for our lives because He knows our beginning to our end, for our lives are predestined. If we keep doing the same thing time after time something is not right. We need to stop what we are doing and have a little talk with Jesus to make things right.
We must communicate with the Lord and let Him fight our battle. He can do it if we take self out of the way and pray and ask God for direction. We must take our hands off and watch the salvation of the Lord, we will then feel better and not bitter. When we let go and let God we are getting out of God’s way, therefore allowing God to do things His way. When we keep going around the same mountain and fighting the same battle for years it can be a sign to wait for the Lord and let Him fight our battle. He can do it, as long as we keep our hands off things pray and stand back and wait on the Lord. We must continue to pray without ceasing asking God for direction. Then watch the salvation of the Lord because when God does it, He does it right.
Always remember God has a plan for your life and He will show you great and mighty things when you let God do things His way. I worked for the U.S. Government for 48 years and received only one promotion even though I was well qualified and doing a great job. I received numerous cash awards, certificates, and plagues. However I still became very upset over the years, because I felt and knew that I deserved more due to my technical expertise, knowledge, and growth in my position, so I began to go into battle after twenty-five years of this unfair labor practice. I knew that I was well qualified for the positions that I applied for but was always overlooked and never promoted. My last and final EEO case filed went all the way to the U.S. Supreme Court. Can you believe that they found no discrimination unbelievable? I still have all of my court papers from so many EEO cases and lawyers over the years.
The best part about this dilemma is that I had all pro bona lawyers and the court appearances and attorneys did not cost me anything but time. I found all this very hard to believe and enough was enough, so I decided to retire after 48 years of service. Can you believe I bring home more money in retirement than I did when I worked for all of those years? Although money is not everything, my case was simply a case of fair labor practice. I realize now and I say this to say that I had to wait on the Lord because He knows our beginning to our end. My God had a better plan for my life. Since my retirement I have written four books in one year. We may have to wait for the Lord to fulfill our life of prosperity. God has more instore for us than we could ever imagine. You see our God knows our beginning to our end. Praise God!
For I know the plans that I have for you, declares the LORD, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Jeremiah 29:11 KJV
