Echoes of Mercy, Whispers of Love, opens up my spiritual quest, encapsulated with the word Sabali (meaning wisdom or patience in Bambara). Bambara is spoken in Mali, West Africa. Wisdom I believe is organic, so it grows with our life experiences over time, and with that in mind this book is very organic. It starts with my early thoughts mostly philosophical, then it takes you on a deeper spiritual journey. My passion for writing was suddenly rekindled while on retreat at Ashburnham Place (Battle, East Sussex), following my resignation from a career in work-based learning in August 2013. While there I couldn't keep my experience to myself, so I started posting my thoughts on LinkedIn. by using the LinkedIn App on my iPhone I was forced to make every word work very hard, because the limit for Status Update was only seven hundred characters -- who said necessity was the mother of inventions? No matter where I am, or how tired I feel the night before, once that alarm goes off I wake up with this surge of inspiration and I start writing expressly using the WordPress App on my iPhone. This book is alive and breathing with every breath I take. Enjoy!

And God, in his infinite mercy, began telling her to repent. In the past, God had spoken to her through Bible verses and circumstances in her life, but this was different. This was direct communication with the God of the universe. Life for Laura would never be the same. Over the years, God began waking her up in the middle of the night and talking to her, and Laura would write down what He said word for word. After filling more than ten journals, Laura felt led to share these encounters with others so they may know that God is way more merciful, loving, and righteous than we could ever imagine. He who spoke the world into existence, who knows our strengths and weaknesses intimately, wants to speak with each one of us and through that communion change our lives forever.
