Being James: writings of an over thinker

Translating concepts from paragraphs to verses is an art. If done well, it provides for the reader the pure essence of a thought, feeling or emotion with a minimum of words, while painting a word picture which underscores those thoughts, feelings and emotions. "Being James" is the first offering from James P. Bell. It describes his pursuit of transparency and the journey toward self-awareness experienced by the author while growing up in the Midwest and then pastoring a church in Houston for many years."Being James" encourages readers to be the person God created them to be instead of chasing dreams and spending energy to impress those around them. James Bell writes that you don't have to discover the plan of God-you are the plan of God, for the person he designed you to be. And miracles are embedded in your spiritual DNA. This book is free verse poetry, expressing feelings and painting word pictures which might sync with some of your own emotions as you enjoy these pages of transparent Christianity combined with honest perceptions about the challenges of living in today's culture.
