As they struggle through life with all these messes, they are confronted with various forms of reality. Sometimes, they begin to reflect not just on themselves but also on the lives of others who may be going through similar experiences.The thought came to this pastor about writing down his life experiences. As he considered a title for the book, a thought entered his mind, and there it was, right in front of him: From a Mess to a Messenger with a Message. This title stuck with him for almost three years until he finally felt compelled to bring it forth and develop a concrete way to put it all into perspective, in book form.The focus of this entire story is not just to elaborate on the events, tragedies, hardships, or the many bad times in the life of this pastor, other pastors, or individuals. Rather, it is meant to bring about an understanding that life is not always a bed of roses; it can also be filled with thorns and thistles. With God's help, many who are going through similar situations can read, understand, and can perfectly and clearly see that God can change a person's way of life if they just let Him lead the way. This transformation happened to this pastor throughout his life when God entered his life and changed things for the better.Today, your prayers, directed to God, can also change your life for the better with His help. May the pages of this book bring you the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, through Christ Jesus our Lord and Savior. May God richly bless you.
