Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - 'Exercising My Thoughts On Amerikkka: Covid 1619- A Racial Pandemic' has been in the making since summer of 2020. It demonstrates poems that express my views on events that took place in Amerikkka. This project also includes chapters that describe why change is vital and other personal and inspiring stories. This book isn't to offend but to decode many racial tactics. I believe this book is conducive and leads to a desirable result. As human beings we have a fiduciary duty to spread love and peace. For our past to be here in the present means Amerikkka has shown a cursory effort in collapsing the bridge that divides our country. We've come a long way with many miles left and I hope this odyssey directs this world to a place where equality for all overrules.…

Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - Reading 'Realizing the Answer' gives a special look and insight into the struggles and the triumphs that were experienced due to involvement in the development of a dream by one and how it can be used to positively impact so many others. It is my hope that this book offers encouragement to those who are seeking to become 'mentors'. It is also hoped that this book is beneficial to those who are willing to dream simply because they have faith which says that dreams do come true. The intent of this work is to offer hope for change in this country that is long overdue. The change that I speak of asserts that we must be willing to help others without having any motivations or expectations of rewards or immediate benefits for doing so. More-over, we must be willing to do more simply because it is the morally and ethically correct thing to do. Hopefully, the outcomes will indicate success in the life of a child for the overall good of mankind, even if it means helping one child at a time.…

Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - People today talk about the good old days. They look back in the past and marvel over the things God had done and how he used his people to do his will in the earth as instruments to work his power through performing miracles, signs, and wonders. The assumption is that God is not moving like that today. But they are wrong, and it is to this end that I'm writing this book to shed light on God's expectation for his people now. The Bible states in Malachi 3:6, 'For I am the Lord, I change not.'Hebrews 13:8 states, 'Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to-day, and for ever.' When we search the scripture, we discover that God's intent was not only to work miracles, signs, and wonders in the past, but his expectation is that we go forth today doing the same through his power, operating as modern world deliverers.…
