A Gift is the title of the book. A Gift is a book of poems written by Allie Lue Edwards.
Why do I write?
I write to entertain, to inform, to encourage, to inspire to educate,
to motivate, to influence, as well as to provoke.
write my thoughts down to enlighten hearts and to add knowledge,
wisdom, and understanding to the minds, I hope!
"I promised God that I would teach as long as He gave me His breath of life."
And so I write . . . . .
"Rain, shine, sleet, or snow
Off to my "calling" I would go.
Sick or well, you would never know,
for you would find me with a "smile" at my post."
"To teach" is one of the most rewarding careers anyone can ever engage in.
For "to teach" is not a job to those are chosen by God "to teach".
I is an anointing, an honor, a privilege, and indeed a pleasure.
It is your calling, your ministry, your passion.
A true teacher is dedicated and feels obligated to perform his best everyday.
He feels it is his "duty".
Therefore, at the end of each day he must feel "a task well done".
"I've done my best!"
"Mission Accomplished!"
"Thank God!"
