MAITLAND, FL— Within the new book, Blessed, I Be, ($11.99, paperback, 9781498412896; $5.99, e-book, 9781498412902) Diana Marie Jordan opens up her world to readers as she expresses her thoughts on various matters in life. Tinted with faith, some poems reveal the author’s daily activities—common to many others—and gratitude for each often overlooked blessing. Others are simply expressions of the author’s heart in words. Either way, Diana’s mission is to remind readers of how blessed they are, regardless of any adversities that they may be facing. Her hope is to strengthen the reader’s faith through her gift of poetry.

“Despite our struggles, we are blessed,” states the author. “Too many Christians feel they should always be happy or never sin, but this book shows that we are still human, and only through Christ can we stem any perfection. We have to learn forgiveness, to repent, and to be obedient.”

Diana Marie Jordan has lived through every experience that she writes about in this book. The author has cried every teardrop, thought up every sentence, and was influenced by God on every page. She further explains, “A big deal with most people my age is that we want love and purpose, we want that Mr. or Mrs. Right and we settle for the Mr. or Mrs. ‘right now’ instead of waiting on the Adam or Eve we were made for. And we have that false expectation that this person will make us whole, will stop the hurt, and make us feel complete. But that feeling can only come from Christ, who is the expert on all of us.”
