Review of Always Before Me
ALWAYS BEFORE ME: A STORY OF MERCY AND SALVATION by JOHN SERVANT. The author introduces the reader to Father Antony who died some years before and his casket is retained in the prison, Antony’s nephew John Daly comes to pick up his uncles possession, John Daly later on he learnt how his uncle was falsely accused, he was tortured by his failure and how he was rejected. But inspite of everything he underwent through he still trusted in God. The author introduces a new character Blood who kills a couple by shooting them. Investigations are carried out and his DNA is taken from urine sample, Blood is arrested and prosecuted for murder, and Father Paul is called to testify. Father Paul was jailed because he failed to testify what really happened, Father Paul ministered to the prisoners and many began to change, Anger and bitterness was relieved and they became compassionate and filled with joy and happiness. Father Paul, undergoes through many test but he still put his trust in God. The author introduces the reader to Karen Father Paul’s niece. Karen is married to Frank and they have a child named Annie. Annie died, and when Father Paul received the news of the death he was heartbroken he wrote them a condolence letter and he still trusted in God and believed that everything happens for a purpose. Jacob who was an atheist came to interview Father Paul but his effort bow no fruits because Father Paul remained still to his thoughts and he was not ready to betray God. He also helps the prisoners to learn about letting go of the past and not looking back at the evil, but to move on in the right ways according to God’s commands in heaven. The girl who accused Father Antony suffered from lung cancer and father Antony prayed for her and she was healed. After, healing Father Antony also suffered from lung cancer and he later passed on.
What I like about Always Before Me is the way the author used simple language and different writing styles that helped the reader to anticipate in the forthcoming events. I also like the way I’m taught the word of God in this book and my faith is strengthened.
I disliked nothing about this book because it was well published, and I found no errors. I rate this book 4 out of 4 stars because it is well written and professionally edited. I recommend this book to anyone who enjoys reading religious books.
