One day, I checked in with a friend who, after fully recovering from surgery to save his life, wrote a book on his experience and recovery philosophy.

This is a book of short stories based upon my real-life testimonies; I wrote some of them as stories and others as questions that I have had and answers that I received from Yah. I've had problems speaking in church and in public because I sometimes stammer and stutter when I speak, which makes me ashamed to give my testimonies verbally. So I decided that if I wanted others to hear my testimonies, I need to write them and have others listen to them read aloud. Even though these events happened in my life, they still give me hope and a feeling of joy, because I know my redeemer lives!

To see what farmers and manufacturing companies produce, driven by competition and demand, is very impressive to me. We are a blessed country to have an abundance of many resources.

How is your life working out so far? Is it what you wanted, or not? Have your experiences consisted of ongoing circumstances over which you had no control? Therefore, the only choices you could possibly have made were the ones you made because you had to; they were all that were available to you. We will even verbalize, "I had to do it, I had no choice." Our having no choice is just not true. Everything happening to us is the result of our choices.
