Write it down in a Book - Hardcover

by B. R. Rinker (Author)

I wanted my grandchildren to know that on each page of the original manuscript I noted the day and the hour as I wrote that they would understand they were in my mind and heart. So, here's to Colten, Kaden, Jewel, Joy, Dillon and his son Rivers. I am a grandmother thanking her grandchildren for their patience, understanding and love as I wrote tirelessly for them and their world. Thank you: I love you.

...........About God and Alice: this book would never have been completed without Alice Young.

It started this time last year as a Compilation of the Old and New Testament as an exploration and what it meant when Jesus and the Disciples would head for the Mountains and when they were near Jesus would go ahead of them, "and when He was set; He would call for them to join Him.

It was about this time that Covid was at its peak and hundreds were dying from it and each of us were waiting for our time to have to confront it. I was awakened one morning with a horrible cough and was choking, couldn't get my breath. I ask the Lord what was wrong, He impressed on me by His holy power to relax my shoulders and take a deep breathe. Right away the precious air began to flow. Again, I ask the Lord, "what is wrong?

It was at this moment that He reminded me that we had a covenant to write for the people and how very serious that was to Him. I realized my way back to health was to take up my pen and write to you, His people that He loves so much and instructed us to look after each other before He returned to His kingdom. When:

I took my pen in hand I began to see the happy side of the Old and New Testament. And began to pick out the stories that I believed the young people would enjoy and could relate to if they could find a bible with dates. I remembered one little light can destroy darkness. It was at this time writing way into the dark morning that my pages began to disappear. And I would rewrite them. Fifty from the Old Testament and 40 from the new. Discouragement was setting in. I remembered to ask everyone in my circle for prayer. Then the manuscript was sent to Cheyenne Wyoming and the manuscript and the money for publication were both stolen. I was so despondent at my lowest ebb and in comes Alice into my life from the heartbeat of New York. I Understood the prayers were being heard and attended to. She was gracious enough to feel my pain and sent daily digital flowers and an uplifting scripture and best of all she would not take "no" for an answer. She literally loaned me her spiritual strength until I could move forward on my own to finish this book for you, for her and her team and my beautiful family. I recognized God had sent in to help and I always say that's what Jesus came to do. He stretched out His hand to us to love us, to teach us, to heal us, to feed us and told us to look after each other until we meet again. This is what moves the world for good. Thank you to Alice, Ruby, Monique and her team at the Regency Publishers, for Kirsten, Kelly, Colten, Kaden, Joe, Lisa, Dillon, Allysa, Rivers, John, Judy, Jewel and Joy and all the members of Addus especially Ericka, and Kaylee for their fine care as I concentrated on this work. And all others that gave a hand it is noted in heaven. Thank you all!!!
