I'm very pleased that you want to write a review…I never considered it work to write, but rather a passionate pleasure and a true blessing for my life. And I pray it will be a blessing to others who happen upon it through the Lord's will. "

That was Glenda's reply when I asked for her permission to write a book review for her first publication,"Can You Feel His Powerful Presence?" (Tate Publishing.)

What an inspiring book! Glenda Potts writes with an eye of poetic clarity and heart-enriching prose. Reading Glenda's book has helped me communicate with our Creator and Lord. Her rich details of nature and farm life make a delightful read. It can be read portions at a time easily.

The chapters take you on Glenda's personal journey from her Initial Awareness of God's Presence as a child, through her Foggy Awareness of God's Presence, her Awakening to God's Presence through Our Senses, People, and Our Trials to her final Reflections on Walking in God's Powerful Presence. Each chapter includes very thought-provoking poetry and stirring spiritual insights gained through a lifelong passage from childlike faith to a mature, passionate and intimate relationship with God. This book took a while for me to read, because each chapter, which included several poems each ending with a scripture verse, stimulated each of my senses. Each helped me draw closer to the Lord.

If you are in need of refreshment, buy this book as soon as it is available.(Amazon, Tate) It's wonderful. Like a cool drink of water in a hot, dusty desert. ~ Jeanne Martin (c) 2008
