RELIGION/CHRISTIAN LIFE/INSPIRATION/BIBLE STUDY... Do You Have A Testimony For Jesus? A testimony simply means to tell. Jesus gives us this example in Matthew 11:1-6: AND it came to pass, when Jesus had made an end of commanding his twelve disciples, he departed thence to teach and to preach in their cities. Now when John had heard in the prison the works of Christ, he sent two of his disciples, And said unto him, Art thou he that should come, or do we look for another? Jesus answered and said unto them, Go and shew John again those things which ye do hear and see: The blind receive their sight, and the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, and the deaf hear, the dead are raised up, and the poor have the gospel preached to them. And blessed is he, whosoever shall not be offended in me (KJV). The disciples of John were instructed to go and tell John the Baptist what they heard and witnessed. That is also what Jesus wants believers to do today: "go and tell" about His love, forgiveness, and saving grace. Bear witness of how He has blessed you. The author asks on behalf of the Lord Jesus Christ, "Come ye yourselves apart into a desert place, and rest awhile . . ." During your period of rest consider the Almighty and the grace, mercy, and love He extends to all humanity. A Testimony will inspire you to meditate on God''s goodness and mercy and to arise from rest with new determination to share your faith. You too, like the Apostle Paul, will firmly declare, "I am not ashamed of the gospel of Jesus Christ."

About the BookBlue Smoke is an offbeat narrative on weathering the whims of the daily unknown. Employing essay and verse, itΓÇÖs ripe with chronicles of scarcity, resentment, and consequence; loss of faith and pride reclaimed; innocence stolen and the pursuit of trust denied.It is an exercise in decoding lifeΓÇÖs ironies and deeply rooted superstitionsΓÇötoo long and too tightly heldΓÇöthat exposes our laughable attempts to outrun the curveballs thrown at us by our greatest adversary, ourselves. The book unfolds deliberately, page by page, unveiling a living patchwork that blends artistic acquaintance with surgical intent.This multi-genre collection is not just about falling down or nursing our wounds, but also about how we come to accept the unseen forces, lurking within and without, that so often compel us to defy our immediate interests for wild schemes of heroism and bold-faced retreat alike.Blue Smoke urges us to ditch the tedium of indecision in favor of lifeΓÇÖs hidden mysteryΓÇöregardless of inconvenient outcomes or unintended truthΓÇöwhile its penetrating confessions rage against the drone of disappointment with a smile and the certitude a new day will dawn.ΓÇöCraig A. Combs - Ypsilanti, Michigan, 2015******I appreciate what Craig Combs has attempted in Blue SmokeΓÇöto construct an array of poems and essays whose themes and concerns seem so braided together and which criss-cross and comment on one another. HeΓÇÖs even gone so far as to frame his ΓÇ£medleyΓÇ¥ and to explain how the parts fit together, even what they point to.ΓÇöPhillip Arrington, author of The SerpentΓÇÖs SageIn Blue Smoke, Craig Combs offers readers an inspiring assortment of poetry and prose that acknowledges both the beauty and the difficulty of this world.
