Happy New Year, dear friends!
I have the best readers. A number of you contacted me when you weren’t seeing new posts recently on Soar With Eagles to make certain I was all right. My heart is so touched by your concern. Thank you. Not only am I fine, but—
I’ve been busy writing and compiling an anthology, God’s Provision in Tough Times, along with my wonderful co-author, Christian writer, speaker, and vocalist La-Tan Roland Murphy. I never imagined how much work goes into writing a book, let alone an anthology. It’s safe to say that La-Tan didn’t either!
Because our book needs to be completed and turned into our Publisher, Lighthouse Publishing of the Carolinas, by mid-January, La-Tan and I have been writing and working feverishly to acquire, read, write, edit, and assemble the stories. That is no minor task when fifteen writers are contributing their own stories in addition to the ones La-Tan and I have written! But, everything is falling into place according to schedule. (No, really, La-Tan, it is!).
God couldn’t have given me a more perfect co-author in La-Tan Murphy. Although we only knew each other by sight and name when we began working on the book, we’ve delightfully discovered how alike we are and how easy it is to work with each other. (Oh, no! Is it giggle time again, sweet La-Tan?!).
God’s Provision in Tough Times is an anthology of true stories written by people who have not only personally experienced unemployment and financial hardship, but God’s provision when all looked lost. A reader doesn’t need to have experienced unemployment to appreciate the heartfelt stories of a God who knows each person’s every need and provides for them during times of adversity.
God’s Provision in Tough Times is scheduled to be published on May 1st, and can be pre-ordered on Amazon. <–Click here to go to the Amazon.com page for God’s Provision in Tough Times.
Please tell others, especially those who are unemployed or facing financial hardship and are in need of godly encouragement, about this spiritually uplifting book.
As far as Soar With Eagles’ articles, expect to see regular posts from me once again.
Be sure to visit the websites for La-Tan Murphy and Lighthouse Publishing of the Carolinas by clicking on their highlighted names. You’ll get to know La-Tan, and don’t forget to check out the books that Lighthouse has published for other authors.
I’m asking God to bless each of you and your families in the new year. Thank you for being faithful friends and readers.
(Okay, La-Tan, I’m getting back to the book now.
).

Therefore encourage one another and build each other up, just as in fact you are doing. 1 Thessalonians 5:11 (NIV)
TO GOD BE THE GLORY

I've loved to write since I was a little one. If the words I write make you laugh, cry or ponder, then I've done my job. It is my hope that my articles will touch your heart and make you realize that, no matter what your own situation may be, God is with you. And knowing that, you, too, can soar right up there with eagles.
