Herein is food for maturity wrapped in wise counsel and down-to-earth instructions that will catapult you deeper in His presence and ways.

The writings herein describe pride and dissect into its history, victims, pitfalls, consequences, and the subsequent destruction it brings. All these points to the grand advice - humble yourselves before the Lord, and he will lift you up. (James 4:10) Pride is a prevalent human weakness. It is a vice and a character that has seen many people move from grace to grass. Pride is hereby treated as a Peddler since it offers a delusional satisfaction which is very temporary: just like a drug.

Lucy Paynter provides a critical insight for believers on how on successfully weather through the storms they face.

Paynter reminds us that storms will come, but the ultimate test lies in overcoming: an aspect she illustrates using testimonies: as a lay person, as a minister, a mother, the testimonies of her children and those of others.

We have often been told been told that silence itself is also an answer, but what about God's silence? Does it serve any purpose? Could it be a language on its own? What are supposed to do when revelations that have carried us for days suddenly stop? Is it a delay? Is it a denial? These are the questions that this book seeks to answer.

This year, the Lord gave me a theme from the book of Daniel, chapter 2:22: "He revealeth the deep and secret things: he knoweth what is in the darkness, and the light dwelleth with him." (Daniel 2:22 KJV) His Whispers is a whispering rendition of the call to hear the voice of God in the silences of life. Revealed herein is the intimacy between the deep of God and the deep of a human being. Deep calls to deep, Psalm 42:7. We are designed to seek after intimacy, and the best of intimacies we can ever develop is that between God and us.
