We all need air.  We need a daily breath of encouragement.

Particularly when the news around us is so depressing and  sadly senseless.

I hope the stories in this book are a comfort; a breath. 

I wrote two stories in this book; one happens to be the lead story, Air in My Tires which you can actually link to via the wonderful Look inside this book feature through amazon.  Thank you Lord for technology!

God bless, spread love not hate,  and let’s all take a good deep breath.

Laura Hawthorne is a friend and recording artist that also does mission work.  This summer she worked with Heart for Africa, a faith-based, not-for-profit organization. They provide shelter, food, water, healthcare and education to the orphans and vulnerable children of Swaziland and Kenya.

Well, she sent me a video of her singing with these beautiful children somewhere in the middle of Swaziland, Africa.

It’s daytime, and the children are gathered in a large circle, barefoot on the dirt.  This is their church.

I’m especially touched as they are singing a song that I wrote called Jesus in My Heart.

Thanks to Laura Hawthorne and Heart for Africa for all they do.
