Book excerpt: "Parables hide truth from those who's hearts are hardened towards it. They provide gems to those whose hearts are wide open for it." - Mo Rhema In MODERN DAY PARABLES, Mo Rhema extracts from decades of experience interacting with people from all walks of life, working from the bottom to the top of the totem pole, and raising six beautiful children. The messages in this book are a result of her personal journey to understanding how to identify and overcome life's inevitable obstacles to embracing triumph in everyday life. Through Mo Rhema's transparency she proclaims that every person and circumstance is in fact a teacher. She offers simplistic ways of perceiving abundant truths, be they utilized or not, that we all encounter and live by continually. She shines a light to help readers identify those truths through sharing her own life in the form of parables, revealing some very practical perspectives of the basic principles of life. 'Modern Day Parables' is a compilation of practical real life stories, events, occurrences and scenarios that will make you laugh, cry, smile, think, grit your teeth, pray, remember, forgive, apologize, travel, talk, sit in silence, and even be compelled to give more of yourself. These parables are depicted in ways that are guaranteed to shed a glaring light into not only your future, but into your past, and more importantly, directly into your present. They will undoubtedly give insight on some of the most perplexing feats and daunting tasks that we each have faced (and will continue to face) daily on our similar, yet very intricately diverse paths in life. It is Mo Rhema's heartfelt desire and deepest hope that this book provides you with invaluable support and assistance, and that it offers plenty of transformational "ah ha!" moments as you journey through the following pages. Each one of these parables is intended to broaden and add beautifully colored flexibility to your perception. It's kind of like watching life through 3-D contact lenses. Each time you open this book, you'll be challenged to ask yourself the hard questions, and not seek the opinions of others, in your own life matters. After all, no one knows you better than you know yourself. You'll be inspired to shift your mental, emotional, and spiritual approaches to life's ebbs and flows from thoughts that once limited you, into thoughts and understandings that will now liberate you! As you read, may you be blessed with revelation and wisdom in the continual search (through your past, present, future) for the necessary clarity and answers that we each so desperately need as we reach the various pivotal forks in the roads of our lives. Mo Rhema is the CEO & founder of Rhema Consulting Group Inc., Senior Consultant, Life/Marriage & Family/Business Management Coach, motivational speaker, multifaceted executive, and is the mother of 6 adult children and 5 grandchildren, all of which are forging a similarly accomplished path of their own.
