    About this ebook

    Terms and conditions! Yike! "Yike" is accurately descriptive of how most of us feel when hearing those two words. Dreaded words that conjure up all manner of distasteful negativism. But could we be mistaken in our assumptions? Could the old Sinatra classic: “MY WAY”, not be near as cool as we were led to believe by Frank? Perhaps it’s time to re-evaluate the “my-way high-way” as to its true value?

    I believe when it comes to the topic of "faith" it's important to know the heart of the writer you are reading. Hence, a little insight. If you've perused my writings I trust you have noticed that I'm an unapologetic non-conformist thus not religious per say. In fact, my greatest concern in life is to be summarily dismissed as a "religious person". My preference? A "real person" serving "a real God" who "really loves" THE WORLD. From day one of my sojourn with God it's always been a "real or nothing" mindset. I couldn't imagine any other way to approach the journey. Admittedly, never perfect and often awkward, but that has been and continues to be the narrow road I travel. At 27 years of age Jesus literally stole my heart. I did not join a "Club". I fell in love and entered the "Kingdom" of my Lover. To me, that was as glorious and serious as it gets! While my writings may not adhere to the status quo at times, I do hope at the very least they provide stimulation for serious contemplation. Blessings to all. Bill Taylor

      Jeramiah 29 -13: You will seek Me and find Me - WHEN you seek Me with all your heart.

      This very familiar passage of scripture that has been quoted by multiple millions of Christians over the ages clearly indicates God’s promise and His qualifier. One statement declaring two thoughts from the Writer being completed by injecting the emphatic, WHEN. The important HOLY HYPHEN that completes the heavenly thought.

      Our God is emphatic! Otherwise He would have said: "You will seek Me and find Me when you
