He Whispers to Me

About the Book

As a teenager I often took walks, imagining that Jesus was holding my hand as I talked with Him about the things going on in my life. He helped me cross the bridges of abandonment and insecurity in my childhood and, later in life, becoming a widow twice. I found Him to be the only anchor that I could hold on to. These poems express what Jesus means to me.

These selections also express my own vulnerability and how amazed I am that He loves me and can still use me in spite of my flaws.

I am only an instrument guided by His hand.

My prayer is that these poems will both glorify my Lord and also bring the reader comfort as we travel this road with Him always by our side.

About the Author

Jesus has been my Lord and Savior for fifty years. I have written poems since I was a child; however, the day after I won my first prize and had a poem published, I turned my gift back to Jesus. I told Him I had won the worldly fame I desired, and if I never wrote another poem, it was okay, because He was in charge of any future poems.

What happened was I became a willing writing instrument for Jesus, writing poems that when I looked back over them, I could not believe that I had written these poems. Many times they brought tears to my eyes. I believe that He has given me a gift that I cannot keep to myself any longer.

I live in Connecticut with my two little dogs.
