Creating an 'eye-catching' front page
is not an easy feat...
How do we appeal to every age...
To each 'online' person we meet?
Then the notion hit me,
early in the day...
What you must see is talent,
...of evidence, on display...
And since I have a tendency
to often think in rhyme...
Perhaps this verse will stike a chord,
if you're visiting for the first time.

Mediocrity to Maturity, A Journey from Despair to Repair
Learn how applying Faith leads to repair,
Even in the midst of terrible loss!
The purpose of penning 'Mediocrity to Maturity' was to share God-sized life lessons learned through hardships, tragedy & triumph. A friend of mine told me that something simple like 'Shark Tales' would've been a good book title. "You waste way too much time thinking up your titles", he laughingly said!
I hope that many young people will read this book and learn the importance of running to God instead of running away; as "running away" always leads to despair!
I've learned much about my purpose in life and I believe that by offering the right tools and applying the right habits, everyone can move forward and into an abundant relationship with Jesus Christ. The ultimate goal in life is to Love Him and Know Him well enough to be more like Him! We are His ambassadors--His representatives--His hands & feet --chosen to positively impact a lost and dying world.
My personal journey has taken me from Rheumatic fever at age six through a twenty-four year bout with seizures--to radical Brain Surgery in 1999'--( 'Right-Temporal Lobectomy')...
This procedure has caused me to be...
Completely healed and seizure-free!

The greatest impact in my life has come from Knowing the Lord, Jesus Christ and learning to walk in step with Him each day. Without Him, I probably would not be here, but because of Him, I can tell you that miracles do still happen. I am walking proof!
Thank you for dropping into my den... I do hope your heart is encouraged by the words on this page...
