With an array of stories the author affirms that throughout our lives God is there. Sometimes He is there simply enjoying with us the gifts and treasures He has provided. And at other times He is there in our sad and tragic moments, sitting quietly at our side. This book, Snapshots of God's Caring Presence is a collection of this author's true and favorite short stories revealing in a multitude of ways God's caring presence. As you read, you will sit with a barefoot little girl playing joyfully with God as they enjoy the little tadpoles in her long ago pond. In another story you will watch Jose, with God's guidance, save the life of this book's author. Still, further as you read, you will observe the women in a poverty neighborhood, fashion and sew little Catherine's first dress and coat-clothing her mother could never afford. You will listen to the old saw sharpener as he relates God's wisdom to the neighborhood children sitting with God in the grass near his feet. You will feel the biting, winter-cold wind as along with neighborhood youth you will help put into gunny sacks coal collected from the railroad tracks-coal that will provide heat for the homes of their neighbors. You will savor the joy of God's work as you sit later with them enjoying coffee around a pot-bellied-stove. Finally, some stories will take you to the edge of our reality. Was God really there? Did I dream it? The stories of the book will flow to and around you, and you will feel God's caring presence page after page. As noted in the book's preface, you may not want to read too quickly for every story is intended to provide its own unique flavor.
