Do Not Get It Twisted

"What a unique collection...as unique as each writer! Each with their own story...their own point of view! Read it and weep! Read it and laugh! Read it and ponder! But read it!" Adele Jensen "The words and poems of this book are quite exhilarating. It is a nice change from the associated stuffiness you can find yourself reading over and over again in most poetry books. "Don't Get It Twisted" breathes new life into poetry. Amazing and thought provoking!" Sharon Payne "This work of "art" is the pulse of who we are. After you read these "Words of Life," you realize that the volume of the book continues. Each word takes you on a journey that you don't want to end. Each page turns and you gasp for the next rhema. This work is inspiring and causes you to look at life in a new light. I applaud this work and say, "Well done!" Mernistyne R. Cole a/k/a "Lady Cole" Author of "I'm Married But, He's Not My Husband."

The title, God Is Speaking, and the words in this book were given to me by God. These are words of encouragement, instruction, and inspiration all in the form of poetry. These are not my words. I am the instrument that God used to put it on paper. God is an awesome God. He knows the right things to say and the right time to say them. My prayer is that people will find comfort and peace when reading these words and that they will truly be blessed.
