Encouragement is something that God knows exactly how to give us in ways unique to us. He knows how we are wired and what will get our attention. Case in point is a message I received last night.

The background is from over ten years ago. I had a group of young people from Vietnam that I met with on the weekends at my church to help them with English and college preparation. The group went on to become pharmacists, nurses, a doctor, an architect, an MBA accountant, engineers, and IT people.

Back to last night. I received a message from one of them a now young woman. She is successful in her life. It was a simple message that meant a lot of to me. The message was:

“Congrats on the book Mr. Matt. I grabbed one for myself.”

She also shared in her social media-“My former teacher published a book” with a picture of my book Jesus Understands Trauma.

Knowing that one of my former students bought my book was such a boost. It was exactly the thing that God knows would get my attention.

Thank you for reading. God Bless.

  1. Because you, Matt, did not give up and allow your trauma of the past to cause you to quit. You taught others in their trauma, and blessed them. Now they are passing that love to others because you did not quit and miracles happen in love.

    1. Thank you for your kind words and encouragement 🙂

      1. You’re welcome! Have a wonderful week with unexpected blessings, Matt! 😎

  2. Wonderful! I believe your book will help many. 🤗

    1. Thank you little sister 🙂

  3. Awesome! One has to sense how the Lord is at work with the publishing of this book.
