Becca, now in her thirties, is desperate to find comfort and sleep
as she moves to a small town once again. There she hopes to find
what has been missing from her life since she left her small home
town and moved to the city. Having years without peace and the
ability to sleep, her days are filled with emptiness and
loneliness. Drained from the struggle of life, and the decision to
leave her family and friends years ago, she embarks down a road of
memories and voices from her past. In a single night she must
re-live all the painful memories and mistakes she has made. Alone,
in the dark, in her own bedroom, she is faced with answering the
question she has avoided all her life. In the end, after a night
that seems as if it will never end, somehow what she had overlooked
all along becomes so real that she finds herself yielding to what
she knows is the only thing that can bring her peace - and finding
grace that brings her restoration she never dreamed possible.
To God be the glory for the things he has done. He has done great
things. I bring you greetings in the name of our Lord and Savior
Jesus Christ. This book is written under the inspiration of the
Holy Spirit. It begins with memories of my struggle as a child
learning to survive living in a life of poverty, where my mother
did everything she could to take care of her children. It also
depicts my enthusiasm to strive to be a breadwinner at an early
age. The recording of the dreams started from a dream in which the
Spirit spoke to me. Its sole purpose is to encourage those who have
made a conscious decision to live according to the word of God that
they are not alone. We are going to have trials and tribulations in
this walk of life. Don't give up. God is always there with you.
Even during the most difficult challenges of your life. Jesus said
I will never leave you nor forsake you. I will be with you until
the very end. Although we cannot see him, He has a way of revealing
Himself to us. The assurance that God is with you is shown by the
manifestation of how he places his angels around you to protect,
encourage, and minister to your every need. In this book, you will
read about the times in my life which God has revealed himself to
me through angelical beings spiritually and physically. Through
struggles and life challenges, they have been with me all the way.
They were either by vision or physical existence. Hold on to your
dreams and keep the vision alive. "Hebrews 13:5 says, Let your
conversation be without covetousness; and be content with such
things as ye have: for he hath said, I will never leave thee, nor
forsake thee.

This book is a detailed study on the nature of the Church as found
in the New Testament. It is also a defense of the antiquity of the
Baptists, showing that it is of neither Protestant nor Reformation
era origin. It contains an analysis of those people and churches
known as Anabaptists.
A diaconal minister, author, and creative artist, Roela Victoria
Rivera became legally blind in 2004, two years after she had severe
illness that left her in a coma for three days and led her to a
near-death experience (NDE) which allowed her to see the glory and
beauty of heaven. While undergoing eight eye surgeries over a
period of eight years, she felt her faith and trust fading away for
awhile. However, her deep faith in GOD and fervent prayers have
strengthened her belief that GOD has never left her side and is
leading her each day with new meaningful plan and purpose for her
life. GOD has blessed Roela to see glimpses of heave at three
points in her life: when she was ten years old, at age eighteen,
and in mid-life which guided her with wisdom and strength, courage
and creative power to write this inspirational book with divine
guidance from GOD, holy light from Jesus, and inspiration from the
Holy Spirit. She will help you see glimpses of heave in many
different ways in everyday life. She also wishes to share her
creative artworks and the great Lessons of Life she learned from
her heavenly visions and from the Scripture. She continues her
ministry for GOD's glory through her GraceNotes Creative Ministry
and inspirational items she designs to share GOD's Words of love
and grace.
Roela's physical and spiritual journey is an inspiration to
everyone who reads about it in this book. We hope you find it
so.
God calls all of us to serve him in different ways. Randy Shankle
was given a special calling. God called him to preach the Word and
to protect others. He was called to be both preacher and policeman.
In this exciting, action-packed, true story, you will see how a
life of service to God can bring a good man back from the brink of
despair. So, buckle your seatbelt and hold on as you ride shotgun
with "The Protector." Ride along with him as he patrols streets and
ghettos. Join him as he brings the spirit of the Lord to those who
most need his ministry and the comfort of our God - even himself.
This book is a biblical approach to the recovery from obsessions.
The obsessions can be as minor as fishing too often or as major as
full blown addictions to drugs. The point is that Jesus Christ gave
us guidelines on how to moderate and on how to be healed when
necessary from these obsessions. The outline from Matthew in the
New Testament is where Jesus teaches us the format for recovery. It
is why he starts with being "poor in spirit" and ends in being
persecuted for your beliefs. This simple outline from Matthew 5:
1-12 is where basically all recovery programs have their origin,
and I have included in the back of the book a chapter titled "The
beatitudes and their correlation to the twelve steps." It is the
premise of this work to bring clarity to the truth that has always
been in God's Word. It is a work that reads well and was a pleasant
task to write. I hope you will enjoy as well as benefit from its
pages. Thank you for your consideration and for taking the time to
read this brief edit. Dennis Wright
