God Colored Me Black
God Colored Me Black is poetry. I desire parents, teachers, aunts, and uncles to memorize it with young children to promote high self-esteem. Growing up in the south, family and friends would tease me about the color of my skin. For some reason, God never allowed me to develop a low self-image. Being darker has been one of my greatest strengths. I chuckle, just thinking about the beauty of my skin. This book will enhance short-sighted parents, siblings as well as individuals of other races. Our complexions are the decision of our creator. We must be grateful for his divine plan. Being Black is so fantastic, and knowing what I know about its dominance helps me understand that God makes no mistakes.

Chosen
In life, we face certain circumstances that can be so overwhelming there seems to be no hope. We all may face betrayal even by our own blood, such as the lack of love and validation on this earth, which can put us in a dark place. But with Christ in our hearts, we find hope that no matter what we go through, we can do all things through him. The poems included in this book are filled with the hope we find in Jesus Christ. The author describes how God took her out of two very abusive relationships--an abusive relationship with her mother and an abusive marriage. Some of the poems just express a romantic side, like her conversations with the Lord. God's love can transform us in a way that we could never imagine. Through Jesus Christ, we find who lives within us and the person whom God created us to be. She hopes that by reading this, you, too, can find that hidden treasure God put inside of you.The cover and images of this work was painted by the artist: Maribel JuarezIG: mari.bellarte012mmamcd4@yahoo.comLove never gives up, never loses faith, is always hopeful, and endures through every circumstance.--1 Corinthians 13:7 (NLT)

Who Has the Key to Lockdown?
We believe that stories have the power to heal oneself a local community and, dare I say it, humanity. Stories also have the power to destroy and seeing how the mental health struggle was a real thing during the pandemic, we decided to run our first competition. This book is the result of that. In March 2021, we posted in a couple of writing websites, a local library and on our very small social media accounts the call for the children and teenagers aged 4 to 17. Suddenly, we received almost one hundred pieces from all over Australia.We hope you enjoy and respect these young authors feelings and craft as they have generously opened their heart so that others could heal.
