A Christmas Trilogy (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781951497774)

Awakened in the night Jesus speaking to me a voice

spoken low. "I cannot hear you Jesus, help me now

though this pencil in my hand". He took the pencil and

pressed it to the page. He wrote words that hurt me,

and made me cry. I could clearly read them even with

the tears in my eyes. He took the pencil, held it to my

face, all the words he erased. He wanted me for a

purpose, but I didn't carry through, then he gave me

back the pencil and a job for him to do, this time I will

follow his calling to do what he would have me do.

Through my prayers, now I share with you.
