It is a compilation of 200 mostly faith based poems that run the gamut of emotions. Most read like a short story and each is contained in one of the following sections: *Good for the Spirit - From these uplifting poems the reader will draw inspiration and encouragement. Each work has numerous scripture references making it the perfect choice for the one looking for a different type of daily devotional. *Good for the Soul - In these more lighthearted, sometimes comical poems, the writer has chosen topics that bring a smile, offer a tad of wisdom, and address the simple things of life. Need a laugh or just a breath of fresh air? You'll find it here! Within the pages of the author's first published work you will find relatable poetry. Some may bring you to tears while others may bring a chuckle. Shirley Flowe Furr won a class contest with her first poem written while in the 2nd grade. It was then, God planted the seed of poetry in her spirit. She enjoys sharing her love of Bible teaching with children and adults of all ages and has been involved in womens' ministry most of her life. A breast cancer survivor, she resides in Concord, NC with her husband, Mitchell. Married for forty nine years, they have two sons and four grandchildren.

Over time and through the challenges of life she has matured into a strong woman of God who finds fulfillment in serving the Lord and encouraging others. Poetry has now become a huge part of His purposes in her story.
