The third chapter of the Holy Bible's book of Ecclesiastes begins "To everything there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven . . ." (KJV). This book is but a mere sample of observations made during various times the author experienced or an effort to capture a "state of being" or mood and express it through poetry-as a christian. Being one who has made many mistakes (but acknowledging the Lord in all ways so that God can direct her path), "From Beneath The Surface" begins with an attempt to state the author's understanding of what Christianity is to her. One of the first few poems admits "I Don't Know" with regard to where to begin as a christian witness while continuing to seek the Lord's purpose for her life. "First View" gives a brief glimpse of the author's humble beginnings. All poems in between the covers (from "Fear" to "Givin' Up") attempts to convey thoughts experienced while "passing through" situations while outside of God's will ("He Felt That Way One Day", "Romantic Fool Unleashed", etc.)-having gotten off track ("Reality Attack")-as well as inside of God's will. Praying to God with "Lord These People Need Help"; understanding comes through "Love Anyway"; then a few philosophical words shared through such poems as "Room For All" and "Grains of Sand". The author ends with the poem "Keep the Faith Alive!" which confirms that no matter what lies ahead, with faith in God, the Lord will see you through. Here's written proof that even a person with a "messed-up" life can witness for the Lord when called to do so. Having experienced hurt, abuse, anguish, pain, heartache, deception, discrimination, rejection, etc. (just like everyone else has), after prayerfully reading the Holy Bible, the author has grown to understand that love (in a godly manner-with patience, kindness, endurance, steadfastness, etc.) is what the christian is supposed to do as Christ's representative. Regardless of the situation or circumstance, one's belief, faith and love of God should shine through because "With God, all things are possible". Please note that although this compilation was first copyrighted in May 1990, all works were written prior to 1988 and additional material has been added reflective through current situation. With a goal of putting something positive back into her community-without stepping on or using others to do so, Karen utilizes God-given talent and ability to interpret her life's situation. (One could say these works touch on existentialism-a philosophy centered upon the analysis of one's existence in the world-with regard to the author's relationship with God at different times in her life.) Hopefully, this book will be a good representation. "From Beneath The Surface" is a book written from Karen's heart, with her hand and in love-based on her life's experiences. As you share, please keep this in mind-nothing contained herein is intended to offend any person, place or thing. Hopefully, inspiration to learn and grow in God's Word, the Holy Bible, will be ignited, lighting the pathway for Jesus' love to come into your heart, guiding you through your life's journey. Read your Holy Bible today, then go out and live the Word! God bless you! In christian love and devotion, Karen Maddox DBA Faith Unlimited Enterprises P.O. Box 3963 Louisville, KY 40201-3963
