Lift Us Higher

About the Book

As I said earlier, I have written my poetry over the last fifty years. Sometimes, the Lord would wake me up very early in the morning and give me the inspiration to write what he laid on my heart.

About the Author

I have been a pre-school teacher, have sold annuities to school teachers, have been a secretary at St. Gregory’s University in Shawnee. I have also sold pre-arranged funerals. I have been secretary for 2 churches. I began writing as a young adult, yet I had a poem published in a local newspaper when I was in grade school. I was raised on a farm near Chandler, Ok. The Lord has always been an important part of my life & I want to get the good news of His salvation out to as many people as possible through my poetry. I grew up in Chandler, Ok & graduated from high school in 1964. I went to Oklahoma Baptist Univ. for one year before my first marriage.
