										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Many of my friends have asked for a print copy of The Shattered Vase so that I can sign it for them. I have come to the stark realization that not everyone owns a Kindle, Nook or other digital devices with which to read books.</p>
<p>I know you may want me to wet your appetite before you buy a copy… so here is the overview:</p>
<p><em>The Shattered Vase is about a young woman, Suzie Whatley, who lived an idyllic life in the country with her family. This picture-perfect life was shattered when her husband left her for another woman. </em></p>
<p><em>The divorce started an avalanche of different battles which Suzie had to fight. These battles ranged from an investigation by CPS to a flashback of horrific child abuse at the hands of her mother. </em></p>
<p><em>As Hope, Faith, Joy, Grace and Mr. Mercy enter the story it is apparent that this is a spiritual battle, in addition to being a fight for survival. </em></p>
<p><em>The evil entities of Deceit, Betrayal, Rejection, Arrogance, Envy, Adultery, Doubt, Insecurity, Condemnation and Despair are consumed with one goal. The demise of Suzie Whatley. </em></p>
<p><em>God is intent upon using every battle to provide another piece of armor to prepare Suzie for the next battle. </em></p>
<p><em>Every thought, word, and action that Suzie undertakes is crucial to her survival. </em></p>
<p><em>The Shattered Vase is a book which is more than one woman’s story. It is essentially the story of all of us and the fight between good and evil for our very lives.</em></p>
<p><em>Yet it is more than that… it is also about the quest for truth.</em></p>
<p><em>For what we seek in life will be found, if we search for it with our whole heart.</em></p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In my novel, The Shattered Vase, I have a chapter where the main character has a flashback of horrific child abuse she suffered as a little girl.</p>
<p>I hope that this chapter diminishes the incidence of child abuse because it takes the reader into the mind of a child who has been abused.</p>
<p>Yet, soon after this flashback, the abuse is forgiven.</p>
<p>The other night I watched a true life movie of a young girl who was beaten to death by a woman who had been hired to care for her.</p>
<p>That made me wonder if child abuse should be forgiven? Especially if it is horrific child abuse.</p>
<p>I prayed about this because I think child abuse is such a horrid sin that it should not be diminished and brushed aside. It should, instead, be exposed, confronted and prosecuted.</p>
<p>But is forgiveness brushing anything aside? If you forgive someone is that diminishing the pain that they inflicted upon you?</p>
<p>I prayed about this and struggled with this for a bit. I wondered if I had done the wrong thing in my novel?</p>
<p>Then the Holy Spirit counseled me and said that forgiveness of sin is not diminishing the evil of that sin. Forgiveness of sin is not allowing that pain to continue to slice through your heart.</p>
<p>Those who do not forgive hold that sin in their heart where it can hurt again and again. It is the most insidious and self-destructive act that you can do.</p>
<p>If you forgive the person who has harmed you, the sin is released to God. Then He can start healing the hurt which the devil intended to inflict upon your heart.</p>
<p>In The Shattered Vase, Suzie Whatley encounters one battle after another. The devil is out to destroy her but God is on her side.</p>
<p>Please read, The Shattered Vase.</p>
<p>It exposes the devil for what he is and in the same story shows how glorious God is.</p>
<p>It is a life changing story!</p>
<p>If you are a Christian and know someone who is not, I beg of you to purchase it for them.</p>
<p>The 5 star Amazon review was written by a person who was &#8220;not religious at all.&#8221;<a href="https://wp.me/p4j2ev-2ff">https://wp.me/p4j2ev-2ff</a></p>
<p>It is time we step out of the box of church and passionately pursue those who are lost because the second coming of Christ is approaching.</p>
