Purple Swan

From My Heart to Yours: A Message from the AuthorThe Purple Swan is based on a true story and is about a little boy named Patrick, who learns to see with his heart instead of his eyes. He learns this lesson when a black swan, which he at first ignores, mysteriously turns purple in a photograph. There are three key messages in The Purple Swan. First is that God has created each of us uniquely and beautifully. Second, we all need to see with our hearts, not our eyes, to recognize the beauty that God has placed in all of us and, finally, that God can answer our prayers in unexpected ways. In The Purple Swan, Patrick was given a second chance to correct his mistake. God is the God of second chances; however, He does expect us to learn from our mistakes. In The Purple Swan, we are reminded of God s unending love and forgiveness. This story is sure to touch the heart of every reader. Below is the actual picture of the purple swan. It is one of my special treasures and always will be. I trust that you will enjoy this story and learn to treasure it too. To God be the glory.
