About the Author: I was born and raised in Tacoma, Washington. I have been writing since 2002 and in 2012, I published my first book "Be Encouraged." My latest book, "Shifting the Atmosphere, praying God's word for everyday life," came about from different situations and dreams that happen and didn't happen in my life. I learned over the years that for most if not all situations that happen in life, God's word can be applied. "Daughters of Destiny" bible study group that I belong to, taught me a lot about how to find that scripture that applies to my situation and pray it and claim it over my situation. God is faithful to His word, and when you have trouble with making decisions or anything you can find the answer in God's word. This book is for all ages and is a great gift for high school or college graduates. My prayer is that this book will help, inspire, and draw you closer to God. I also hope that you will be enriched and greatly blessed as you Shift the Atmosphere praying God's word everyday life. Be Blessed Marla L Grace
