Book Description
Wisdom for the Journey culminates years of periodic, miscellaneous writing. My desire to write spills over from my love for reading. Between reading fascinating books and creating writing projects, I began to say "Someday, I'll write a book." "Someday" dragged on into years. I finally chose a book title and began to write. Pages of dated manuscript filed away in folders attest to my periodic bouts of writing. Years go by without a completed manuscript. It seems like the write-a-book dream had faded. Then one day when I least expect it, the "write-a-book dream" returns resuscitated and stronger than ever. I hear a voice in my spirit say "You have a book, books to write before you sleep. You must begin to write now!" Immediately I am moved to start over again, and to forget the manuscript I had toyed around with for so long. Wisdom for the Journey is the title that erupts from that voice. With it comes a mandate, "Go all the way this time on to a published book. Suddenly, my self-talk is activated and I say to myself "Here I go again back to the writing track. How many times have I been here before? I must not allow history to repeat itself again" When the self-talk stops, I realize that I need some way to ensure that I stay on course, keep procrastination away, and finish the book this time. The idea floods my mind that making a writing vow to God would give me assurance. I search the Bible for wisdom on making vows. Many people of the Bible have made them. Some of their vows have been foolishly made and produced unfavorable consequences. The eleventh chapter of Judges records such a vow. Jephthah, a great warrior, made a vow that results in the death of his only child. Not wanting to make a mistake, I search the scriptures for more wisdom. Scriptures teach that: vows are voluntary, but very serious; carry as much force as a written contract ; and are unbreakable. (Deut. 23:21, 23) Wisdom's bottom line is: If you make a vow to God you must pay it. The Lord demands it. There are no excuses and no exceptions. I carefully consider the biblical cautions and warnings about making a vow. I prayerfully conclude that for me a vow is the assurance I need for getting the book finished. So I make this vow to God. "Every day that you allow me to live, I will write for at least one hour. The writing sessions will continue daily until I have a completed manuscript ready for publishing. Making that vow is the beginning of Wisdom for the Journey. A few months into the writing sessions, painful arthritis and carpal tunnel pain attack my hands and wrists. I begin to think that its okay to quit now. But I recognize that voice as Satan with a "buyout package". My response to him is "Get behind me Satan ! You must have lost your mind to suggest that I break my vow to God." I recite biblical scriptures for strength and courage. Galatians 6:9 reminds me that "in due season we shall reap, if we faint not". In the meantime, wearing arthritic gloves, and carpal tunnel wrist braces, I continue to write as I seek more wisdom. I apply Romans 4:17 to the situation that says "Call those things which be not as though they were." And the wisdom of Job 22:28 that says "Thou shall also decree a thing and it shall be established unto thee." So believing and trusting God, I pray. Then I declare and decree that: "As I continue to write the manuscript my hands are healed and strengthened, and I am anointed and empowered to finish writing the book." The daily writing sessions continue as planned; the manifestation takes place as decreed; and Wisdom for the Journey is completed, fulfilling the writing vow I made to God.

Book Description
Elemental Dragons, once allied, are clashing and ruthlessly destroying everything, one sanctuary at a time. And rumors begin to spread that the Black Elf has returned and is raising a new army that could well mean another War of Anarchy. The only way to stop the chaos is for Zakaisia, a white tiger Vorshen, to return the eyes of the most potent Goddess to the Realm of Ice, her birthplace. Forced to ally with malicious women of dark races and traitorous intentions, Zakaisia clings to her family as she struggles not to relive her past; the murders; the blood; and her former allegiance to the evil and formidable Black Elf. Zakaisia must fulfill the prophecy to restore the Elements to their place in the great pentacle. She leaves the sanctity of her city to cross many hostile Realms before reaching the Realm of Ice. Along with her niece and a small group; they attempt to return what was never theirs to the Ice Goddess. As long as no Elementals, including her Goddess, discover what they have concealed in a sealed chest, peace can once again reign over the worlds. But for each Realm they cross, and every Element they defend themselves against, Zakaisia's burden becomes greater and more perilous then even she had feared.

Book Description
How can you live in this world and at the same time not be of this world? This book tells how you can successfully accomplish this, and lead a blessed and peaceful life here on Earth. You must first be aware that having being born into this world, you came into world in sin. You, therefore, have worldly attitudes, since you are influenced by world ideas, and by world wisdom. Your minds are fashioned by the world's ways of thinking and doing. But if you are to live in this world and not be of this world, you must overcome this world, and in order to do so, you must get the wisdom of God in your hearts. The following passages in this book are geared toward providing you with a good measure of godly wisdom. Proverbs 1:33: "But whoever listens to me (wisdom) will dwell safely, And will be secure, without fear of evil.”
