What He Says As We Walk

There are times in all of our lives when a word in season makes all the difference. Perhaps one might be in a time of decision, crisis, or uncertainty. In such times, a word of encouragement, inspiration, or instruction from the ageless wisdom of God is all that's needed to make a necessary change or decision. This collection of inspirational writings serves as a springboard for contemplation, meditation, and direction for the hungry heart longing to find solace and harmony with Biblical truth. Jamison's writings possess the quality of a contemporary seer, yet are as ageless as the Biblical truths that inspired them. The soul that is longing for peace in troubled times, or simply to rest in the love of God, will find that comfort within the plethora of topics embodied in the pages of "What He Says As We Walk." Written over a span of more than a decade "What He Says As..." is a collection of emotions, thoughts, and answered questions about many subjects of life in general, and intricately. As Jamison travels across the United States and various countries around the world he encounters situations in life that lead him to pray for proper perspective and understanding. His uncommon viewpoints more than a few times will let you see the knowledge you already know from new angles. As well as bringing new insight, wisdom, and revelation you may not have yet considered. "What He Says.." has something for the last night's convert as well as the forty- year believer. Inspired by Shel Silverstein (The Light in The Attic; Where The Sidewalk Ends) as a boy, Jamison takes several unique approaches at sharing God's love. His writing styles include but are not limited to short stories, expositions, and poems. Originally hailing from Eatonville, a town just outside the city limits of Orlando, Florida. He presently resides in Fort Lauderdale, Fl. He believes that's it's OK to dance to different beat, as long as you dance to the same Drummer (Christ).

In the dark days of the 1930s Depression, veteran detective Jack Dunning loses both his wife and his position with the Boston Police Department because he can't keep the cork in the bottle. He hops a bus to California and signs on with the Santa Paulina Police Department as a consultant. On a dark, stormy night he finds salvation and a fresh beginning in the arms of a beautiful, young, dime-a-dance girl, Angel Doll. When she vanishes after shooting a local gangster, Axel Teague, Jack is torn between love and duty. Does he go to Los Angeles to find Angel, or stay where he is and work his current case: the mysterious disappearance from the local shantytown of an innocent teenager, Louise Crowley? Can he find a way to do both before it's too late? Great noir reading from a major talent.

This collection is a combination of romantic, philosophic, mystical, and spiritual poetry written to warm even the coldest of hearts. They come from a very inspired place that speaks of a great desire to understand ourselves. The elusive butterfly in all of us, that out of its innate curiosity to learn and experience things by necessity, transforms itself. They also speak of the unique place that we all share in the divine tapestry we call life and how we are all intimately connected. The poems reflect on the betrayal and hypocrisy that we all inevitably encounter on our journey through life. Most importantly, a message of hope and joy runs through them, so that we are always reminded that even in our darkest moments, the light of truth and love has never abandoned us. The book also shares some of the stories that inspired and motivated some of the poems. They run the gamut, from gut-wrenching tearjerkers to deeply impassioned pleas for universal kindness to the whimsical frolic of a playful little child. Included is a section titled Musings on Life. These are philosophic perspectives intended to be life lessons for the reader. It's been said that not all men are masters, but all masters have been men. Along that same line of thinking, the author feels that although not all philosophers are poets, all poets are philosophers.
