About this ebook
Without the word the outer man will soon perish, and the inner man is renewed. Your word is forever and it gives us favors by God and his strength.
Thank you for letting your word be manifested in our consciences. It offers life eternally, good health, protection, and light unto our path. Forever, O Lord, thy word is settled in heaven and established upon the earth. Your word enlarges our heart with joy and peace. We may be troubled, but we dont have to live in despair; persecuted, but not forsaken; cast down, but not destroyed. We are thankful that your death worketh life for us. It is because of the written word that we believe in Jesus. We give thanks for being of the same spirit. Your word also worketh through repentance to salvation. It encourages us to walk upright in a godly manner.
In conclusion, we know if we are in the world that worketh death. We are grateful our body is your earthly treasure. Amen.

A Memorial
I Kept My Eyes on Jesus
I am happy I reached my destination
No one can pluck me out of his hands
Rejoice! I am home and I want to stay
Indeed it is a brighter day
This is a place no one can resist
A loving savior is in our midst
Don’t worry—I’ll see you soon
Just a little while in the upper room
It is a journey we all have to make
I was not afraid to see his face
I ran and jumped into his arms
And we quickly embraced
I refused to look to the left or right
While passing we never separated—or said—goodnight
For I kept my eyes on Jesus
Don’t cry too long for me
Home is a good place to be
Thank God, I kept my eyes on Jesus
Love You,
Debra
Why This Book Is Written
The purpose of writing this book is to expose readers to basic biblical principles and applications for encouragement and enjoyment. There is a time for every purpose and a time for every work to be fulfilled. I challenge you to do whatsoever God doeth, and your lives shall be blessed. Nothing can be added or taken away from what God has already given us.
He grants us wisdom, knowledge, mercy, grace and unspeakable joys in life.
To every sinner he will give travail. It is necessary to gather and heap up all that is good. Be set apart and keep the word of God in your heart, mind, and soul. He saves those that believe. This book may be used for fellowship, schools, the library, slide shows, seminars and projects.
Live a transformed life and totally start investing in kingdom-building. We are kingly a co-heir of God through acceptance and being anointed in the spirit of adoption.

Appreciation
First, I thank my Heavenly Father for the spiritual authority he has imparted to me throughout writing this book.
Father, I adore you and bless your name for skillful hands and a strong constitution. First, I thank my parents for paving the way and making sure I included God. They are no longer with me, but I have a good spiritual background.
I have one sister and two wonderful brothers who love the Lord. Also, I have a loving family—a supportive husband, two beautiful daughters, Christina and Osmana, a great son-in-law who loves Jesus, and one granddaughter, whom I love dearly.
I am also blessed to be a part of a growing church. Reverend Williams is the rock of our church. He has really taught us well. He taught me: Faith is the substance, hope, proof, confirmation, evidence of things we cannot see. I have faith to reach my spiritual endeavors and fulfill God’s purpose in life.
Words to Inspire
To The Readers
Bless a friend with encouraging words and make the heart glad. Show good maintenance and plant, build up, pull down strongholds, root out as a ruler. Be strong with power, knowledge and authority of God’s word. Never tear down the feelings of people. Hearts can be wounded through misunderstanding. Open rebuke is better than untold secrets. God is acquainted with all thy ways and he knows the heart. Throwing stones will always return to you. The Lord gives mercy to the humble, poor, needy, afflicted and the righteous. Be thankful that he will perfect that which concerns you and his mercy and favors are shown to those that respect others.
