On Earth, As It Is in Heaven

This is actually my own transcribed journal from late 2009, 2010, and early 2011. This was a time of terrible crisis for me and my family.

To list them, our children were taken away from us for two months, our son went to jail, my mom was diagnosed with Alzheimer's, and I lost my business of twenty-two years; these occurred in a three-month period. This was also the best time of my life. Our Father in heaven came to me in this dark time and showed me how these personal crises are great opportunities for victory the simple way He showed me about thankfulness and its application. Summer 2009, when these very difficult things were occurring, is when God the Father began showing the way of thanksgiving. This way turned that terrible time into the best of my life. I call that summer "the summer of life." My intention for you is to find a way to deal with all things in life, good, bad, or neutral, through the stories in this book. I had no idea, at the time, I entered these stories in my journal that the journal as a whole is a comprehensive how-to manual. It is very simple to learn this way of thanksgiving, almost too simple. May the grace of thankfulness inundate every soul on earth.
