The FORGIVENESS Factor

What if there was a new reality show where all the contestants demonstrated Forgiveness?  Let's say the format revolved around recounting instances when folks forgave others and experienced the release of joy and freedom which comes with the true act of overlooking another's faults.  How uplifting would that be?

Forgiveness is something we desperately need.
After all, "to err is human," and we certainly mess up from time to time!
The dilemma is in extending forgiveness when we've been wronged.
It's so challenging when we're hurt, to let go of the grievance, whether small or large.
Hanging on to insults, affronts or thoughtless actions is so much easier.

But then GOD shows us a better way to live in the life and work of His Son, JESUS.
For Love, Jesus endured the torture of the cross and paid for our sins.
His example encourages us let go of bitterness and resentment.
His HOLY SPIRIT enables us to overlook and forgive.

My book "The Mother Gap" is a memoir of learning to love and accept one of the most important people in our lives...our mothers.

It's available on Amazon, so check it out!

Almost May and Mother's Day!

Hi All,

As we say "Goodbye" to the month of April this week, I pray that your spring is off to a joyous start!

With May approaching, I'm delighted to see THE MOTHER GAP touching so many hearts.
Do you know someone who feels alienated from her mom?  Or perhaps, a young mother who might benefit from my memoir and treasure her children more.  Copies of my book can be purchased at Amazon, Barnes & Noble, or directly from me.  It makes a great gift!

Oh, and I want to share a brand new video trailer for the book.  What do you think?
Please leave me a comment with your thoughts.



Blessings!
Jessica

JESUS Bridges the Mother/Daughter GAP!

I have a DESIRE and a GOAL!

My DESIRE is to see every woman encouraged in her relationship with her mother, no matter how difficult it is. If hurting daughters receive healing, they won't pass "the hurting" on to their loved ones.

My GOAL is to raise awareness of my newest book, THE MOTHER GAP, by gathering over 100 reviews on Amazon! Can you help me by inviting your friends and family to read it, and post a review? Please spread the news.

And BTW, I'm planning a sweet Mother's Day Give-Away for the person whose name is drawn from those who post reviews (everyone who has posted is eligible)...only 32 days from now. More info to come!

Only Eight Hours Left!

Only eight hours left to post a review of THE MOTHER GAP on Amazon!
If you make the deadline (March 29th at 7:00pm), your name will be included in a raffle.  Someone will receive the sweet canvas tote bag below.  Perfect for Mother's Day!  Or course, the book is a great gift idea too.

THE MOTHER GAP: A Daughter's Search for Connection is available on Amazon, Barnes and Noble, and through me directly.

Have a Great Saturday Y'all!

~Blessings~

Give-Away Tote

Hi Precious Ones,

If you follow me on FaceBook, you know that I am drawing names this coming Sunday (March 30) to give away a sweet, canvas tote bag.

The way to get your name in the game, is to leave a review of my latest book, THE MOTHER GAP, on Amazon.  I will collect all the names of those who posted and do a random drawing.
I wonder who will win???

And, it's not too early to be thinking of Mother's Day gifts!
Do you know a woman who has felt disconnected from her mom, or her daughter?  This book would be an excellent gift, especially if she trusts in God.  He is the Bridge of Forgiveness that brings connection and healing into our lives.

Blessings to you and yours!
