We go through many things in this life but with God nothing shall be impossible for us; we can have victory, we can achieve, we can overcome, we can prosper, and we can live. We are pregnant with possibilities and as we give birth to our minds creations, it is my prayer that it would inspire and bless your life as you read it.
    God Bless You!!!

    Review

    This latest compilation of poetry sincerely reflects the writers love of God, care of family, and concern for friends. Amazingly what is difficult to say is expressed effortlessly, passionately, and without apology through poetry. The poets release from their innermost being powerful and poignant poetic imagery that clearly comes from the heart of their creator, and much like the book of Psalms which man calls poetry, Mother Aysha Youngblood-Moses as she is affectionately known pens songs of worship and praise!

    Advanced Acclaim:
    Harry Youngblood and Aysha Youngblood-Moses have given us a remarkable agglomeration of inspirational translations. This literary production pinpoints in a methodical manner the pathway for living life to the fullest, as well as finding purpose in your life. This book will provoke you to a commitment of excellence. I pray that you too will be blessed by the God-given wisdom of this book. Enjoy!

    Author

    Harry W. Youngblood Jr.

    My name is Harry Wesley Youngblood Jr. born on August 14, 1965 in Chicago, Illinois to Harry and Aysha Youngblood. I am the oldest of their four children and number seven of the ten children by my mom. I have a son (Tony) who will be 25 in December 2012 and a grand-daughter (Kinsley) who recently turned 1. I served in the United States Army for 20 years in the Logistics field (76P and 92A) and I am now working in that same field as a civilian. At present both of my parents live with me and God has blessed me to be able to abundantly care for my parents. In the Promises of God, I Have Hope is the second book being published; the first one being (Put Some Honey on It). I had thought that I would have been came out with the second book before now, it’s been 5 years between the two, but I find it peculiar how change of events took place recently to get to this point. I had written this poem titled “I Seen Love” and I recited it on the phone to a friend and I was telling her that once I write a poem for my Aunt Dorothy then I’ll be ready to publish the second book. Two days later on March 23, 2012 while at work that morning, it had rained and started clearing up when I looked into the sky then picked up my pen and proceeded to write two poems. The first being “A Penny for Your Thoughts” and then “Matriarch…Thinking of You Aunt Dorothy” and things have just been falling into place ever since. Praise God! I’m elated and grateful!

      DEDICATION

      I would like to dedicate this book to my Aunt Dorothy Wilburn; a woman that gave so much of herself to so many people. I have many fond memories of you and your spirit is strong with me, I love and miss you dearly but I know that you’re in a better place and I’m so glad about that.

      Also to Aunt Olivia Smith (affectionately called Aunt Libby); a woman short in stature but strong and tall in the things of God; Holy Ghost filled and fire baptized, she lived a faith filled life blessing the lives of all that she came in contact with and God favored her with her innermost desires.

      I have truly been blessed to have these two wonderful women deposit words of life and love into my life and I thank God for the time that He has allowed us to share.

      I love you!

      ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

      Harry:

      The secret to a successful life is having a good relationship with your creator, and I thank God for the relationship that we have now and I look forward to having an even closer one, for in Christ I am traveling into new territory, I’m growing, and I am enjoying my life. I thank God for the talents that He has given me and as I exercise those talents, I am appreciative for the opportunity to once again have materialized in book form the writings from my heart and mind.
