Drummer Boy's Lunchbox:
Fish & Bread for Sinners & Saints; The Twinkle Twinkle in the Opus of God – by Mike Freed 

After years of preparation and procrastination the “drummer boy” opened his “lunchbox” and spread out a unique smorgasbord of Bible verses, poems, prayers, stories, questions, and other writings. In this revised and expanded, “pass-along” edition, you can feast on most of the original favorites, while enjoying many new and reworked creations as well. This thought and emotion-provoking sampling of life and God’s love has at least a taste of something for everyone.


Mike openly shares his own struggles, joys, experiences, and insights while encouraging readers to explore and reflect on their own lives. This collection, woven together by narrative, may enlighten, inspire, amuse, frustrate, confound, or even anger you at times. However, approach it, with the expectancy of discovering God’s love, forgiveness, and acceptance, and with a willingness to share these gifts with others and you will not be disappointed!


“Every kind word and action are fish and bread in the Master’s hands; they are melodies around which God writes and performs His Opus! … “

Life

Live and love expectantly

For the poop you step in may lead you to a pony.

Amidst the stones that bruise your head or heel,

You may find a precious gem,

In the slime of oysters,

A priceless pearl.
