Book Cover & Preview Text
Dear God, Today as I walked along a small, sandy path, I became aware of the beauty of your world, so perfectly formed in your extra ordinary way of creating. As I walked, I was overwhelmed with joy. Knowing that you loved me so much, you created such a vision of loveliness for me to enjoy. Everything that you created was given to enjoy. Even the wild flowers, birds and the animals seem to be so contented to grow and roam among the lush green grass. Thank you, Father for this beautiful landscape. Dear God, Today I thank you for my existence. I thank you for the beautiful blue sky with a hint of powder puff clouds. Father, as I gaze upon the sky, I am reminded of your holy spirit, so full of abiding grace and an abundance of contentment so soothing for the soul. I look at the clouds and see a glorious, magnificent, sweet spirit. Dear God, Continue to mold me, shape me as if I am a piece of clay in a potter's hand. Shape me, oh Lord, until I am transformed appropriately to someday enter your kingdom. If I somehow become stained, forgive me. Try me again by remolding me until I become reshaped. Thank you, Father for being at the potter's house.

About the Book
Bettie Stallworth-Lewis offers readers an objective look at personal situation(s) by setting the stage for the reader to enter a place of serenity. This place of serenity is where they can spiritually meet with God and focus on his goodness, mercy and strength. Lewis delivers encouragement by focusing on three factors of life's disappointments: 1. Faith: a small amount of faith will go a long way (mustard seed), God will do the rest. 2. Patience: I've never known God to be late. As-a-matter of fact, he's always right on time. Give him credit for punctuality. 3. Praise: Give thanks for the good things in your life. If anything occurs out of the ordinary, pray that God will give you peace of mind and allow you to accept what you cannot change. Each letter has a related scripture that accompanies the factors by planting seeds that are needed for each particular situation. This book has a sweet, sweet spirit with a soothing purpose that allows the presence of God to encamp the reader.
