Word to the wise is a self-help book dealing with the inner hurt we all feel sometimes. Life is a journey, but unfortunately that journey does not always feel as calm as a stream. As an author, I desire to give you another way to look at life's difficulties. As a person, I wanted to use some of my individual experiences to show that we all encounter troubled waters, and rough terrain. Yahweh is skilled in his plans for us. If we allowed the precision of his steady hand to lead, guide, direct, and navigate us, we would find that our trials, tribulations, and disappointments are easier to overcome. This book is inspired by the leading of the Holy Spirit and the breath of life He has breathed onto the pages. This book was written to encourage you that no matter what point you are in your life and what you are facing, that life is worth living and it truly gets better. Every person walking this Earth or gone home to be with the Lord that experienced greatness, had to overcome much before they got there! Pain is the conditioning of greatness. No pain, no gain.
