    About this ebook

    I am blessed to see that God has enabled Daniel to write his fifth book. Daniels poetry has been a source of inspiration for me and others for many years. On several occasions, I have received a poem on a Sunday evening which the Lord inspired Daniel to write during one of my sermons. I am always amazed at his uncanny ability to compile the words and pen the thoughts that capture the essence of what others are feeling, but find it difficult to say.

    I have known Daniel since the day he gave his life to Jesus Christ, and I have seen God truly transform his life. He has overcome a myriad of obstacles and continues to press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus. His writings are a reflection of the narrow and difficult road he has traveled toward the abundant life which Christ died to give him. As you read this book, I hope that you will be as inspired, empowered and encouraged to overcome every obstacle life brings your way, and to live your life completely for Christ.

    Daniel Carroll

    Daniel Carroll born February 2, 1976 has been through many struggles in his life. At the age of three he was hit by a car, and was in a coma for 3 months. Growing up he tried to find a way to fit in the best that he could. He struggled with drug abuse for many years, before he came to know Jesus as his Lord and Savior. After coming to know Jesus, Daniel’s life was changed in many ways as he began to live for God and allowed Him to work in his life.

      THE RESURRECTION IS EVERYTHING, ISN’T it? It’s a metaphor for the whole Christian life. Without it, what’s dead is just dead. Over. Finished. Buried forever. No hope of new life springing forth. But in Jesus, we have the promise that death is not the

      I am blessed to see that God has enabled Daniel to write his fifth book. Daniel’s poetry has been a source of inspiration for me and others for many years. On several occasions, I have received a poem on a Sunday evening which the Lord inspired Daniel to write during one of my sermons.

      OPENING PRAYER

      We all have a role to play in God’s plan. We are actors in His very own play, and the places we go to and things that go on in each of our lives, are merely parts of His scenery. My prayer for you is that as you read through this book that you would be encouraged, encouraged to reach for all that God has for you.

      There will be times when you will experience sorrow or even pain, but know that it is all a part of His plan to make you stronger. My hope for you is that God would speak to you as only He can through the pages which follow. I also pray that you would come to discover the role which He has laid out just for you.

      You are a letter… written not with pen and ink but with the Spirit of the Living God (2 Corinthians 3:3)

      JOY STEALER

      Father, I need You

      As I awoke this morning

      I felt so weak

      like there wasn’t even a point to get out of bed

      Even as I sit here writing out these words

      which You are speaking to me

      I feel so defeated

      so much so that I don’t feel that I can go on

      Lord, You are my Comforter

      You are my peace through the rain

      and at this time the tears are forming within

      but haven’t yet come to the surface

      I ask You now Sweet Jesus

      my One and only Precious Savior

      as the enemy tries to convince me

      that nothing will ever change

      that all I’ll ever do is

      remain right here watching as life goes by

      Lord be my Peace

      Lord speak Your
