Most critical to this awakening is the all-inclusive universal power of a loving God as He revealed Himself to the author through this inspiring poetry. \u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eAfter many years knowing that change was needed but having no success finding what others had discovered to enable their recoveries, the author began writing poetry to express those innermost feelings. Through these verses, God became an overwhelming presence, awakening the author’s innermost emotions and the need to finally begin recovery from addiction. \u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eFrom the pain of acknowledging a troubled past in “Boogie Man” to the poignancy of “Self Love,” the author gradually found a way to express deeply buried emotions and fears. This poetry collection was written in less than fifty days, with God providing the path to release and recovery.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eThe Voice\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eI had a voice, I made much noise, I knew just what to do,\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eI yelled in here, I talked out there,\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003ethe voice within my mind, it drove me very blind.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eI thought out there, I thought out here, could hardly get some air,\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eand then your voice, that still small sound, just threw me to the ground.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eIt quieted my spirit true and showed me what to do.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abbott Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47143461519600,"sku":"9781458215161","price":3.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781458215161_p0.jpg?v=1763865273","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781458215161","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
