Download or read book Tales in Thoughts of Restless Spirit written by Frank Schroeder and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2022-11-03 with total page 71 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In all the different situations of experiences I've had with life, you come to realize that control is an illusion, whereas, God has always had it under himself. The book is not about me, but about God, life in general, and spiritual warfare you may encounter in life. It is arrangement of poems in order to depict a soul fallen from God to begin the longing, rough, arduous journey back home through faith in Christ. Sort of like the story told of the lost son by Jesus Christ. You might find something to relate to in this book, then again maybe not. One thing is for sure, Jesus Christ is the only way to eternal life and we all need him.
