Can't See the Forest for the Trees (ePub)

The author of this book, Eldon Adams and his wife, Bettie, now in their 70's were both born into Christian families but became lost to ernest faith for most of their married life until just a dozen years ago. From God's purposeful trials and tribulations they came to the realization that success without God, is no success. Like most professed but lost Christians they let ignorance define their belief and faith. Now, with two grown sons and an expanded family hardly knowing God and the Bible, plus a feeling of guilt for their shortcomings, they have turned to the God of their parents at last, hoping to make amends and asking forgiveness.



Eldon's education and career-choice led him to become a CPA (Certifed Public Accountant). As such, the first 12 years of his career trained him to audit and certify the 'truth' of published financial statements with a large, international CPA firm.



Understanding is the key to seeing and verifying truth in financial statements and likewise, it is so in reading the Bible. It takes due diligence and discernment. Accordingly Eldon applied the same principals to his reading and understanding of the Bible.



At 77 years of age, Eldon had no expectation of having a "calling" from God. His thinking was, if he had a calling, he missed it in all of his misguided youth and self-direction.



So it is that this book may be the result of renewed understanding and inriched faith, being Eldon's calling to deliver this hopeful message to America's churches, with faithful moral support from Bettie, and spiritual help from the Holy Spirit. It took a long time on a long and twisted path. Nonetheless, here it is.



Please do not be offended by this puposeful message to expose spiritual blindness. Let it be a blessing to you that you "see" and can overcome the "pride and prejudice" that may stand in the way of your repentance. God in Jesus has control and His New Covenant Love and grace is yours for the asking and doing. It's never too late.
