SynopsisAnnie Johnson Flint was born in New Jersey, USA on Christmas Eve in 1866, now over 150 years ago. Crippled with arthritis throughout her life, hers was a difficult journey to glory - but, perhaps similar to Fanny Crosby, she did not let her physical limitations prevent her from leaving us with an incredible legacy of her writing.This collection of one hundred of her poems contains all of her most well-known writings, as well many of the lesser-known ones. Many of them reflect an unwavering faith in her God and and His promises and a belief that He was always with her and supporting her, and that He had a plan for her life, even though her way might be hard and she couldn't currently see what his purposes for her might be. Her unwavering reliance on God's grace to cope with trials on a daily basis is also very evident, as is her deep love for her Saviour, Jesus Christ. What also shines through many of her poems is a love of God's creation, and this fact is made all the more remarkable because her arthritis would have prevented her from exploring so much of it.Annie's writing has been an inspiration to so many over the decades, particularly those passing through difficult times of illness or pain, including the pain of bereavement. Her most well-known poem "He Giveth More Grace", the title of this collection, has been set to music and recorded by a number of singers and choirs, touching and helping millions in the process. In 2016, Bible teacher Ravi Zacharias quoted this hymn in a sermon and described Annie as 'one of the greatest hymn writers.'However, in recent decades Annie's poems have not been easily available in print. It was therefore decided to publish this collection to bring her work to a new audience and to make it available in an attractive form for those who already appreciate it. This collection is an annotated version in the sense that each poem is accompanied by some relevant Bible verses. As we thank God for the life and work of Annie, we pray that He will bless this project and help many more through her timeless prose., Discover the inspirational poetry of Annie Johnson Flint - a woman born on Christmas Eve 1886, and whom the late Ravi Zacharias described as one of the greatest hymnwriters, and whose poems have been a source of comfort to millions. Annie was sadly crippled with arthritis for much of her life - but like Fanny Crosby, she didn't let her physical limitations prevent her from leaving an incredible legacy of writing. This varied collection of one hundred poems includes the most well-known - He Giveth More Grace - and reflects an unwavering faith in God's promises through her trials, her belief that He had a plan and purpose for her life, and a delightful appreciation of God's creation. A special blessing to those who have been recently bereaved or experiencing difficult trials, this collection will also inspire and encourage all believers on their disciple journey, especially those who enjoy the writings of Elisabeth Elliott, Helen Steiner Rice and Amy Carmichael. This book, the first of three volumes of Annie's poems, includes an abbreviated version of her biography, the full version of which is entitled 'The Making of the Beautiful.' The second volume of poems is entitled 'God Hath Not Promised' and the third 'Grace Sufficient.'
