Visit us online at www.1stWorldLibrary.ORG - - The history of the world consists mainly of the stories of the lives of certain men and women whose deeds have been of sufficient importance to make them worth relating. The lives of some persons have been worth narrating because of their abounding in deeds of great merit, such as the lives of Washington, Gladstone, Frances E. Willard, and Joan of Arc. The lives of others have been thought worth narrating because of their great wickedness, as the lives of Nero and Queen Mary of England. But the church too has a history. This history differs from the history of the world, in that it does not record merely the doings of man, but the workings of God through man as his instruments. God is a jealous God who manifests himself only through those who are willing to give him all the glory. Hence not many names of the wise, powerful, talented men of the earth have been enrolled on the history of the church, since they were not humble enough to submit fully into God's hands. In the church truly this scripture has been proved: "God has used the weak things of the world to confound the mighty."

Autorenporträt

I have always been inspired by children's thoughts and words. Most of my nursing career involved working with children while I taught nursing students at a university. Parenting my own three children allowed me to learn about various stages of development. Now, in retirement, I have time to reflect on my own sweet memories. One recollection is the image of a giant groundhog basking in the sun near my parents' home as I was growing up. This led to the making of my present story. I love to write true stories of my own experiences while incorporating input from my own dear grandchildren.
