Let my lips sing praises to the Father in heaven, my Lord and Savior Jesus, and the Holy Spirit! Never once did He turn His face away from me and my family. He never leave me nor forsake me. In times that I suspect if I would be able to finish this book, He reminded me that never once He thought of giving up on me when I was running away from home, running away from Him, so that now I boast of the Lord's powerful love, grace, and mercy in me and my family.
The Lord gave me the boldness and wisdom to write this book shortly after publishing "The Gift" and while I was still writing the first volume of "Your Daily Dose of Inspiration." All glory, honor, and praises are to the Lord, for He is good!
How can I ever profoundly express my gratefulness and joy to my wife, Connie, who faithfully prayed for me and encouraged me to keep working in the Lord's vineyard however things may seem? Saying thank you with hugs and kisses will never be truly enough.
Always thankful I will be to my children, Emmanuel and Daniel Paul, and their girlfriends, Shayne Vincent Giron and Alyssa Kaye Sanchez, who never once doubted the power of the Lord to help me finish what was started. It was like I was running a race and they were running along with me to cheer me up.
How can I forget my siblings, Joel, Leah, Lemuel, Noel, and Maria May; my cousins Crised, Eddy, and Crisna Gordo, Dorothy Joy, Cecile, Arthur, Ronald, and Cathy Diaz; and my second parents, Aunt Juditha and Uncle Sonny Diaz, who saw me through the book writing and publishing journey? It was as though they were eagerly waiting and standing by till the "little book babies" were born.
I will always remember my Sister-in-law, Barbara Hillyer, and my brothers-in-law, Allan and Dominador Alpas, whose enthusiasm about my books is beyond priceless. I will always thank the Lord for blessing me with their love for my family and me.
Always dear to me are Bro. Allan Banzuelo and his wife, Venus, and Bro. Don Cuevas and His wife, Dermie, and our fellow workers and prayer intercessors whose life and prayers influenced me, my wife, and our family to keep shining for Jesus in every way the Lord leads us.
My gratefulness always goes out to Leana Carino Sanga, Prima de Castro Enot, Tats Buelis, Joe Vincent Deluao, and my classmates and friends in high school and elementary school (how I wish I can name them one by one!) who stood by me all this time to see the books finally come to life.
And to you, my Wattpad family and friends, thank you for reaching this far and for allowing this book to accompany you with daily Scriptures and inspirations from the Bible to light your way as you also shine for others to find their way in the Lord. You will never know how much your votes and your following and reading each part of each of my books has inspired me to keep writing.
God bless you all and your loved ones so richly.
