Publisher's Synopsis
Samuel Langhorne Clemens ( Mark Twain ) once quipped that poverty was the most extreme form of violence. Clemens was wrong. Or, maybe, he was speaking about a condition which can affect the most people, at any one time. He was, after all, speaking at a time when the horrific Civil War was raging. The War lasted for approximately five years, and stopped. Poverty continued. Wings Held Up By Hope is about the condition of the heart, the individual heart, during times of personal turmoil. For the individual, the most extreme form of violence is that which the individual may inflict upon him or herself during periods of upheaval. The secular Psychology books are full of strategies for coping. The Holy Scripture simply calls for us to seek God Wings held up by Hope describes how I tried both; and, how I learned to seek God first.
