    About this ebook

    I started writing poems in earnest just a few years ago...My poetry will always begin and end with Jesus. He is the master craftsman, the great author, The Word. In this way, each poem is indeed a prayer; of thanksgiving, of worship, of truth whispered in innermost parts. As you read both the poems and the thinking beneath them, I pray that Jesus would woo you afresh by his presence.
