About the Book
Who Me? A Prisoner?
Yep! We all are prisoners of our thoughts, our beliefs, our actions, and our circumstances. We are confined within the prison walls of our lives.
Wall One: Thinking everything is all about us.
Wall Two: Believing that we are our own “god.”
Wall Three: Doing good or doing evil as we choose.
Wall Four: Accepting our negative circumstances, or seeking the right way to change them into positive circumstances.
"It’s a free country – I have my rights!" Never heard that one, I’ll bet. Two words describe the journey to true freedom: CHOICE and PROCESS. Right choices lead to freedom...wrong choices enslave. Freedom is a process, not an automatic response to being born. The process begins with making right choices, but failing to continue in the process toward the goal of freedom can land us back in our intellectual, emotional, or spiritual prison. A “thirty-day” incarceration, however, does not have to turn into a “life-sentence.”
Enjoy The Prisoner and learn about true freedom.
About the Author
About The Author Born and raised in South Carolina, I have been the wife of one man for fifty-two years. God has worked out His plan for my life through the years, first by choosing me, then by filling me with His gift of salvation. He later sent to me, the man He had chose for me... from Canada, via Thule, Greenland, to Shaw Air Force Base in Sumter, South Carolina. He has further blessed Donald and me with four children, ten grandchildren, and eight great-grandchildren. Writing is what I do. At the age of sixty-seven, I have much time to indulge my passion for writing. It was in grade-school that I first experienced the excitement and joy of putting words together to form sentences, often developing a paragraph, which usually contained a sentence of humor. Even then, I would often revise the sentences to say exactly what I wanted them to say, and structuring the sentences and paragraphs exactly as I wanted them. God graciously gave me the gift of discernment, which fruitfully serves all my writing endeavors. For a number of my adult years I wrote mostly biblical expositions and commentaries as a means of discerning scripture verses and passages. A Christian since the age of ten, I have been a life-long student of human nature. Ten years ago, I attempted some fictional writings and self-published a book, entitled, “The Holy Spirit And The Second Millennium Disciples.” Since that time, I have written a great deal of fiction, while continuing to study through the expository and commentary writings. Having been finally persuaded by my granddaughter, Tara, who is convinced that you, the reader, will enjoy it, The Prisoner is only my second book to be published.
