Crushed Grapes (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9798348509859)

The act of crushing or pressing grapes stands as a powerful symbol of spiritual transformation-illustrating how moments of deep pain, loss, and challenge shape us into something greater. Just as grapes must be pressed to release their hidden essence, we too are refined through the trials and hardships that God allows in our lives. These times of pressing are not in vain, for through the struggle, we find our truest selves, emerging with a clearer understanding of our purpose. Just as wine is created from the grape's sacrifice, our souls are crafted and strengthened through each trial we endure. This collection of poems reflects the sacred journey between suffering and renewal, offering a reminder that, even in our deepest moments of grief, there is divine purpose. Through the press, we find beauty, growth, and the grace to embrace God's work in our lives, learning to trust that each hardship holds the promise of something beautiful being born from it.
