In Eternal Love: A Poetic Pathway to God’s Heart and Mind by C. Peggy Atoche, invites readers into a journey in the welcoming voice of the poems and accompanying text. The combination of poetry and corresponding prose was designed to enhance readers’ experience by providing explanations of complex metaphors and enigmatic messages, as well as some background information on mystical and existential experiences during the poetry writing process. Some poems carry poetically embedded words in various languages: Swedish, Spanish, Latin, French, and old English.
The themes of the book touch on topics such as war, mental health, poverty, the power of prayer, forgiveness, grief, finding strength, peace, and hope. The author also shares her personal visions and conversations from in-depth experiences without becoming involved with any church or religious group, as she presents this life-altering connection that she found with God. She relates to readers from this experience that God is also your source of strength, love, and peace.
The poems and commentary combined hope to give you a sense of peace, and help you draw closer to, or strengthen your relationship with God. These are chaotic times we are living in and finding your source of strength, love, joy, and peace is paramount. Love is the main theme of this book. Love is a force that heals, reconciles, and empowers.
