Beschreibung

Patches of Godlight is a refreshingly honest book about one woman's journey towards a closer relationship with God. In diary entries spanning two decades, Janette Fernando questions, struggles, rejoices and abides in God's unfailing love. She complements her diary entries with superbly crafted poetry that is both evocative and rich in imagery. Her profoundly moving text and accompanying photographs make for inspirational reading. Patches of Godlight is testament to Janette Fernando's skills as a writer and poet. It is also a testament to her love for her saviour. This book honours God. - Leigh Hay, author of Capturing Clouds

Autor

Janette Fernando has always loved playing with words, but began seriously writing poetry on her first visit to the Centre of Australia in 1990. Since then she has joined a Christian poetry group The Wordsmiths of Melbourne and, together with her friend Jean Sietzema-Dickson, started Poetica Christi Press - a small Melbourne publishing house for poetry with a Christian ethos. Some of Janette's poems have been published in anthologies and journals and her first book of poems Two Edged was published in 2005 (it was short-listed for the Australian Christian Book of the Year Awards that same year). Since 2007 Janette has been Managing Editor of Poetica Christi Press. Janette lives in Montrose, Victoria, Australia with her husband Roger and does casual relief teaching at Mt Evelyn Christian School. They have four adult children and five delightful grandchildren.
