Book Description
It had seemed like an eternity since The Artist was given the plan for the tapestry. He'd been waiting for this moment""the exact moment He would be given the opportunity to begin weaving. He had planned for this, but until He was given permission, He could only anticipate what He could do and how it would look. Now was that time. He stepped in front of the tattered and worn-looking tapestry. It wasn't at all what He had intended. In fact, it was quite the opposite. What should have become beautiful and vibrant over time was instead deteriorating and coming apart. Who had done this? The Artist knew exactly what needed to be done. No question. He would have to start over . . . with a new canvas. The tapestry was ready to be dismantled so that the true condition of the canvas could be revealed. He began to methodically and precisely remove each strand of thread so as not to cause even more damage to what had already been done. The tapestry was fragile now. Strand by strand, the dismantling continued until finally The Artist had uncovered all the hidden imperfections. It was just as He thought it would be""stained, torn, and tattered. Years of neglect and abuse to the tapestry had left it damaged, so damaged that in an amateur's eyes, it would have been discarded. But this was The Artist . . . would He be able to repair what had been done? What would He determine? Did the canvas have any value? The Artist had the plan, and what He could do with this canvas would be beyond what anyone could imagine. He was about to create His masterpiece.

God’s Masterpiece (Woman)
Author: Richard Dexter Russell
Publisher: LifeRich Publishing
ISBN: 1489725024
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 155
Book Description
My book examines women's thoroughly and fairly; by the word of God, it is this fairness that makes the novel so riveting and thought-provoking, and so perfect for triggering discussions. This is a great inspiring book, of the creation of women by God in human form, God could have taken anything to create the apple of his eye but he chose her. That’s why she is His Masterpiece of Creation, if you want something to change your life, this book will wake you up and think. The author is true to his determination not to stack the deck for readers; the ending is deliberately ambiguous, with allegorical overtones, leaving readers to decide what they want to believe. I have done my research and know what you’re looking for. MY MANUSCRIPT is CHRISTIANS BASE genre of included comparison titles to give you a feeling of the book and show I know my target audience. Dear readers and friends, it was so wonderful to share this story of what God gave me to write about in the creation of woman in our life with you. Many years ago I woke up one morning with a feeling that told me I should start putting the things about His Masterpiece of creation on paper. I had no idea how to do it. I just started by jotting down the main highlights of all the things based on my experience that happened in my life over the years. Then I asked the Holy Spirit to inspire me as He inspired the people who wrote the Bible. This is why this story I call “God Masterpiece of creation woman” It amazed me how i never knew how to write and especially something or someone to write until now. Every day when I sat down in my lazy boy to write, or laid in bed, the words just flowed. It was an amazing experience, I know that this is not my doing; it is the Lord’s doing. I know a few more stories will come as God continues to do His work. Specifically, this is why I think you (the reader) would like my novel. I have taken time to carry out my research on what you seek or need to know. I have also included comparison titles to give you a feel of the book to prove that I know my target audience. I am an interesting and a likable person judging by my character. I want the readers to use the blank pages to take notes and tell me about each paragraph after each STORY. I do not have any publishing credits, but experience in the subjects presented in the manuscript, included is a short biography. I’ll also let you know if I’m working on something else to prove to you that I am not a one-hit-wonder. But I won’t pitch that novel here.

In 1986, Janice Anderson suffered one of the most devastating losses imaginable when a car accident caused by a drunk driver took the lives of her beloved husband and two children.

This is the remarkable story of how Janice learned to let God guide her through the hours, days, and years that followed. Janice knows firsthand about anger, grief, fear, and disappointment. But because of her unwavering faith, she also knows about forgiveness, healing, courage, hope, and even joy. Is God responsible for terrible things happening to people?

Perhaps you need help releasing anger and pain and focusing on the positive. Whatever your circumstances, you may find yourself in Janices story, a testimony to Gods patience, love, and awesome power.

Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 296
Book Description
A Transformational Picture of Marriage God created marriage as a beautiful work of art that reflects his glory to the world. But our culture has undervalued and misunderstood it, causing it to lose some of its luster. Like recent restoration projects on the Sistine Chapel and the Mona Lisa, it is time to return marriage to its former glory, and the only way to do that is to take a closer look at what the artist had in mind all along. In this newly revised and expanded book, Al Janssen takes a fresh look at the exquisite design God has for marriage and brings to light the reasons this union was intended to last a lifetime. The chapters weave real-life stories with great teaching and biblical narratives in order to paint a complete picture of all that marriage can be. Readers will examine elements such as passion, adventure, and commitment that come together to make up the colors of God's design. They will also discover new ways to reflect God's love within marriage--revealing his plan for men and women from the moment he created us.
