I have been working very hard on my new book, “Signs of Hope: For the Military. I feel that it will help many soldiers and their families. The appendix for this book will have one of the most complete lists available for finding help in any area a person may be searching for pertaining to the military.
As of 2-4-15 I have connected with a military expert from Alabama. His name is Leroy Hurt. He is a West Point Graduate, and will be advising me through-out the process of writing the book.
Be looking for updates on the book and other news at this site, or at http://www.dailysignsofhope.com.

There has been so many tragic events going on in our world lately. Isis and their murdering of innocent people. Flooding in many places, domestic violence in sports, and even murder.
I could go on and name many more horrific things that are going on, but we need to concentrate on the positive side of life instead of the dark side. There are too many trials, and storms in many people’s lives.
Are you faced with dark and dreary days? Do you seem to be taking one step forward, and two steps back? You certainly are not alone.
Depression is one of the fastest growing ailments in the world. Depression, has no age barrier. It can attack the elderly, way down to little children. It is another form of identity thief in my opinion. It robs the person of showing love, and compassion to others around them. This is sad in that it is they that needs the compassion and love, and through their depression, people tend to ignore them because they don’t want to deal with it.
People don’t like being invited to pity parties. I know, because I was one of the most depressed people on the planet at one time. I was even sitting in my Ford Explorer ready to check out of this hotel called earth. I tried to put on a good face, and smile, but on the inside I was dying.
Have you been there? Do you have very dark days with no light at the end of the tunnel?
Turn all your pain, and frustrations over to God. Let Hm carry the Load. That is what I did when I sat in my Ford Explorer. I finally shouted out to God. “I can’t Take this anymore!” At that moment I felt a wonderful peace. It was as if God was saying, “It is about time you came back to me. Now let me carry you the rest of the way.”
God cares! He loves you like His own child. He wants you to depend on Him to see you through the storms and trials of life. It is too much of a burden for most of us. If we try to face the world alone, the outcome may not be too pretty.
Stay Strong and let God show you the peace and compassion you deserve.
Remember:
You are never alone.
You are never forsaken.
You are never unloved.
And above all…never, ever, give up!
