    About this ebook

    I am a 62 year man that has walked with the Lord and have faced many trials and struggles during this time. I have learned that they have always been for my good. Paul said in God’s Word that he died daily. I have learned that the more that I die out to self, the more that I end up being in the spirit. We are told that the Spirit gives life. The Spirit of God produces good fruit in us whereas the flesh produces bad fruit. This book is all about fruit and how to have the good fruit rather than the bad fruit.

    Rick King

    I am a 72 inches year old male that met Jesus over 30 years ago. I was considering suicide when Jesus found me and gave me a reason to live. Because I didn't have the answer then, it has made it easier to know "Not by might, nor by power, but by my Spirit saith the Lord" (Zech 4:6) is the only way in Jesus. Not about me, but only about Him. My writing comes about as the Holy Spirit leads. I pray that it will touch others as much as it has me.Recently released! Trials and Triumphs: Hope Beyond Circumstances: 40 Life-Changing Testimonies. This is an anointed book of personal testimonies that I was honored to be one of the forty chosen to be included. I was in tears as I read the many heartfelt stories of the amazing things that the Lord has done in so many lives around the world. This will encourage the Christian and help the non-Christian to see that there is a God that is alive and well today and still touches hearts of those that will seek and cry out to him. Jesus is alive and well!Be Blessed!!!Check it out at:http://www.amazon.com/Trials-Triumphs-Circumstances-Life-Changing-Testimonies/dp/0991488407/ref=la_B00E3DHXTG_1_3?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1393806056&sr=1-3
