This is the autobiography of the author of the series, "The Life
and Ramblings of Ron." I thought the future may grab our attention
better than the past or present so I published "The Fears and Hope"
first; anyway, there is no future without a past or present so I
hope this will catch your attention, too. Hopefully, this
autobiography will illustrate, "Cheer up, things could be better."
This is my life story with some of it's warts, but mostly of God's
blessings to me for trying to do the "right thing." I'm a Solomon
wanna be, content like Mary to sit at Jesus' feet. I hope that my
life journey can be of help to you in your journey. May you find
God with you, too, may He shine His face upon you and give you
peace. That is the intention behind this autobiography, as well as,
all the books in this series. This was originally written to share
my life, my faith, and my values with my children. Now, hopefully,
a wider audience can benefit from reading my true life story; even
from my ramblings, hopefully. The last three books in the series,
as mentioned above, are fictional, also intended to pass on the
things near and dear to my heart for my Family to remember, adapt,
pass on, and celebrate. The following paragraph illustrates the
reflective nature of this book. This is just one of the many
discoveries that the circumstances of my life have led me too. For
a long time I wondered how to implement the phrase, when life gives
you lemons make lemonade. I used to kid, "What about limes and
grapefruit?" I used to feel guilty that I hadn't made something
worthwhile out of the difficulties that came my way. Finally, I
realized I should stop beating myself up with these supposed
failures on my part. I did make lemonade, so to speak; I learned, I
persevered, I hung in there, and I did the best I could by the
grace of God to whom be all praise and Glory. Amen. I really think
the true events of my life can help others in their journey through
difficult times. I found it helpful to me as I wrote it. I must
admit, that I may not have learned everything that I should have,
but the casual reader may find insights worth discovering. As a non
celebrity, I can only hope some one will discover the worth of an
average persons insights to living the abundant life. With hope
that a wider audience can benefit from this book, I will be glad
that my faith, hope, and love can be shared to help renew a world
that desperately needs the object of my faith, hope, and love;
namely, the Triune God, the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Knowing
that there may be a possibility to help someone, I sincerely pray
that this book can lead that person to the One that gives life and
sustains it. I of course believe in Jesus as my personal Savior,
but I can see how a witness to living a life of faith can transfer
to others living by their own faith systems. All of us can and will
benefit from living by a generic motto, "Cheer up things could be
better." I modify it a little bit because I know God is at work
making it better. I have said for years, "There is always hope."
Looking back at my life I can see the hand of God in it. I always
need to remember that every day; especially, when my life doesn't
unfold the way I expect it to. Life is so different for each of us;
it can be so unfair. Life is such a precious gift so much more
enjoyable in connection with others and the One who gave us that
gift. To that end I'm trying to offer a life story as an ambassador
for Christ which may connect with your life in such a way that you
too can know real joy and the peace that goes beyond all
comprehension. My only claim to fame is that I am a forgiven and
forgiving sinner who wants to be there for other sinners to share a
message of hope that can lift us all up. If that can happen through
this book to God be all praise and glory. Amen.
