I DEDICATE JESUS CALLING TO MY MOTHER,
whose encouragement inspired me to persevere in writing this
book.
She demonstrated her appreciation of my writing in
poignant ways. She kept my manuscript beside her bed, so she
could read it every morning. Once, while away from her home,
she even asked me to fax her the readings day by day. After she
died from cancer, I found portions of my writings that she had
hand-copied into a journal. This mother who had prayed me
through thick and thin, including years of rebellion, opened her
heart fully to my devotional writing. Her oft-expressed desire to
write children’s books never came to fruition. But there is a
sense in which she has written—through me—this book.
THANK YOU, NANI! YOUR LEGACY LIVES ON.
