Jerry's Own-Seeds of Wisdom [Paperback]

Gerald Ferguson (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: September 21, 2006

"Jerry's Own-Seeds of Wisdom" came to life after the Author was thinking of a good way to share with everyone the blessed gift known as "Wisdom", which is so vital to a human beings journey through life. Not wanting to "copy" from anywhere the multitude of expressed Wisdom available, Jerry Ferguson sat at his desk in front of his computer, prayed, and here they came! In a very short time over 325 individual thoughts were put down, in amazement to his wife who checked up on him with the question "What are you doing?" A week or so later while on vacation in Pennsylvania the Author completed his thoughts and rounded them off at 366, one more needed for Leap Year. Immediately many people expressed how they liked the collection and he proceeded with getting it published with the good people of Author House. I hope it will be found favorable to young and old alike. A great gift for any occassion or holiday. A little wisdom never hurt anybody. That's for sure! Enjoy the book. It came from the heart. Jerry Ferguson
