An Elephant and a Dog
Please watch the video "An Elephant and a Dog" in my "Animals Stories to Warm the Heart," part of my website.

I believe it is a picture of the world to come, when there will be complete peace, harmony, acceptance, and love.  We have something to learn from our animal friends.

Bible Passage Corrections in Book
I was selecting Bible passages from my book to go with the photographs I shot from Israel when I discovered some mistakes in the numbers where the passages are found.  I guess that's why I work with words for a living and not numbers. For those that like to look up the Bible passages for themselves, these are the ones I discovered.

Page 2, Isaiah 43:7 should be 43:6
Page 102, John 6:67-60 should be 6:67-69
Page 130, Matthew 27:65 should be 27:64
Page 140, Job 1:10 should be 2:10
Page 171, Mark 8:24 should be 9:24
Page 178, Isaiah 56:11 should be 55:11
Page 218, John 3:15 should be 3:16

I have also had some emails from people with additional questions after reading my book and I will blog some of those questions and answers here in the future, so check back.  I love to hear from readers so please feel free to make comments on my comment page or email me with your own questions.  


Hopefully in the next week, the slide show with Bible verses will be on Youtube accompanied by original traditional Jewish music. I will have a link from my website for those who would like to view it. If I can figure out technically how to do it, I would like to make it available as a free download for those who would like to use it as a screen saver on their computer.

Adoption, Faith and “Children of Dreams”

....beginning with the adoption of her first daughter, Ms. Roberts never gives up on her dreams to become a mother when she heroically overcomes Nepali adoption laws, life-threatening illness, and communist blockades. Later, she is faced with a terrifying illness when her daughter is diagnosed with neurocysticercosis that is common in third-world countries. With documents expiring, the possibility of never seeing her second daughter, and God's miraculous healing and intervention, Ms. Roberts is able to travel to Vietnam to complete her second adoption. There she is confronted with deceit, baby-selling, and a possible kidnapping of her second child. Throughout the book, the reader bears witness to hopelessness transformed into joy based on a heavenly love that could only come from God Himself.

Ms. Roberts has the ability to give a true, intimate representation of the path of adoption. She allows the reader a peek into her own life through adoption by her earthly father, her daughters, and what it means to be adopted by the Heavenly Father.

Children of Dreams (ISBN: 978-1-60264-386-4/978-1-60264-387-1) is available in softcover and hardcover from Virtualbookworm.com, Amazon.com, and Barnesandnoble.com. This book can also be ordered from most bookstores around the United States and United Kingdom. A longer excerpt of book can be found at her virtualbookworm website, www.lrobertsbooks.com.
