Produktbeschreibung
Oh, I woke up early, before sunrise And prepared a simple meal. I hear the Book of Life speak, And this is what it said. In our present digital world of social media, building and maintain strong friendships can be a challenge. We return to friendship when we return to the basics of prayer and meet together face-to-face and place-to-place, caring, sharing and helping each other. The Blessing of Friendship encourages readers to take part in that system; to become fully engaged, fully alive, and woven into the fabric of life in the banquet of love. Through inspirational, religious poetry and songs, it celebrates the dynamics of friendship and the ways our lives are transformed when we let love into our hearts. With simple lyrics and powerful rhythm, the poems and songs collected here inspire the reader with friendship and love. Our lives are compared to a pendulum that goes back and forth from giving to receiving, not moving too fast or too slow, so that we do not get stuck in isolation and apathy. By listening to the quiet whispers within, we can all make the transition from student, to servant, to friendship, embraced by God's love.
Autorenporträt
Both William Bertrand and Cynthia Stork have witnessed the transformative power of friendship, acceptance, and belonging first hand. With William finding the strength and faith to overcome the trials of mental illness-with assistance from a number of people and organizations-and move forward with the altruistic spirit of volunteering and brotherhood, and Cynthia a licenced caregiver, and active participant in a number of missionary and philanthropic organizations, the two bonded quickly in friendship and shared purpose. They hope that this collection will offer inspiration and insight to a world that seems to be spinning out of control, bring to light hidden feelings that stem from loneliness and a longing to belong, and articulate this need for those who simply do not have the words. Both authors live on their own in beautiful Victoria, British Columbia.
