    About this ebook

    I endeavor to lay a simple foundation. By using illustrations, focusing on children so they can understand how God has a place and purpose for each. What a better place than the heroes of faith mentioned in chapter 11 of the book of Hebrews in the Bible. This epistle was written with Jewish converts in mind. It's purpose was to encourage, sustain and give hope. Paul, the writer, needed to have them understand how much more was given them as believers, such as being in right standing with God, forgiven. The heroes of faith were challenged when called and though some hesitated, they responded in obedience. This very short illustrated narrative brings them to the forefront of history and shows how God can transform the ordinary into extraordinary.

    Othoniel Ortiz

    Born in Puerto Rico in 1946 and retired since 2000, my main function at the company was as a graphics illustrator for company training manuals till retirement. I've worked with church ministries since my youth, and have gleaned some valuable truths along the way. As you read any of my short essays I pray God's grace will give you, the reader, greater insight and hunger to know God's truth even more.

      ONE OF THE HARDEST COMMANDMENTS of Jesus, for me, is the order to forgive. Anything. Anyone. Seventy times seven. But how do we do this when whatever wrong we’ve suffered is raw—and our feelings still fresh? Worse yet, probably, when the other person
