personal dialogue with God( yet?) so universal

It is a series of dialogues with God ( within the background of Bible) by a women on every aspect that is affecting as a mother, wife, career woman; except few, every one find it easy to read through and will derive some meaning; a perfect book for gift; It is not moralistic; humanistic. One should not categorise it as woman oriented since the other is a woman; Should we say David's psalms for men only? or Job's cry for men onyl; The book belong to this category in its theme.

Ageless & timeless as our cry for guidance from our Creator

Who Am I God, by Marjorie Holmes was given to me in 1970 after the birth of my first child. It has guided me, comforted and given words to my deepest feeling. It covers the universal joys and challanges of life including the death of a child. The Bible and this book consoled me after our daughter died in 1993. It is ageless and timeless, whispering the words we speak in the silence of our hearts to our Creator. I am purchasing a copy for my daughter who is a young mother.
