The word that came to Jeremiah from the
Lord, saying, Thus spake the Lord God, of
Israel, saying, "Write all the words that
I have spoken unto thee in a book."
Jeremiah 30:1-2
I am definitely not Jeremiah the prophet...

I am definitely not Jeremiah the prophet...
I don't even come close to being a saint of his stature. But what I do know is that the God of Israel has called me to write. He has summoned me to put words of wisdom, encouragement, and hope on paper. And because of modern technology, my writings are being shared online, as well.
Ironically, before I became a follower of Jesus, I wrote for the devil. Shocking, but true. In years past, as a very lost and mentally disturbed soul, I wrote sick and twisted things at the behest of the demons who claimed ownership of me, and who dwelt inside me.
Yes, foolishly, and ignorantly, I surrendered my body and soul to the Prince of Darkness. It was the final outcome of a life where l struggled with a host of mental, emotional, and behavioral problems ever since childhood. But those days, thank God Almighty, are long gone.
Now, by the grace of God, whenever I am given the opportunity, I seek to write words of comfort and
encouragement to people from all walks of life. My desire is to point everyone to the One whom the
Scriptures declare to be the "God of Hope" (Romans 15:13), and the "God of Peace" (Romans 15:33).
In addition, He is also a God who loves humanity, and wants us to love our fellow human beings equally.
As the Bible makes plain, "Beloved, let us love one another: for God is love... He that does not love does not know God, because God is love" (1 John 4:7-8).
This is the message I want to share. Peace to mankind. Hope to humanity, and love to the citizens of
every nation. And because God first loved us, we should likewise love one another.
