Singing In The Valley (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781606478028)

Down in the valley of caring for my husband with Alzheimer's, the Lord comforted and encouraged me with thoughts that He helped me put into poems. God used poetry as my therapy. Each rhyme was such a blessing to me at the time that I want to share them in hopes they will be a blessing to others. We all have valleys of one kind or another, but God has a song for us in every one. This book contains some of the songs God gave me. Pat Lennon is the widow of Horace Lennon, a highly decorated World War II veteran. Upon moving to Taylors, SC, near their six children, she opened Grandmama's Day Care and cared for seven of their fourteen grandchildren. She has written poetry all her life, but two seemingly unrelated events lie behind the books she has authored. Those events were her husband's diagnosis with Alzheimer's and her learning how to use the computer. The poems are an extension of her worship of God and a God-given release from despondency. Physically active most of her life, she is now in a new season--advanced Osteoarthritis. Her books are a reminder that God often uses His people in different ways at different times of their lives. Her favorite hymn, Great Is Thy Faithfulness by Thomas Chisholm and William Runyan, is her testimony.
