Author: Irma White

Irma White Irma is a mother and grandmother from New Orleans, LA presently living in Jonesboro, GA. She has been enjoying her life since she retired from her Job in January. She is the author of a inspiring book entitled, Special Creation " A Psalmody of Encouragement. In 1991 Irma had a life-changing experience that set her on the path she believes God ordained for her before the foundation of the earth. Although she grew up hearing about Jesus, she did not know Him nor the vital necessity of reading and meditating on the Holy Scriptures. Until that experience Irma says she lived a very mediocre life and didn’t know how to change it. But, after reading one scripture verse in a devotional, her life began to change. She grew thirsty for the things of God and began to seek out God’s truths in His Word. She discovered that there are certain rights and privileges that belong to a child of God. She embraced those biblical principles and began to trust God with her life. Her favorite book to read is the Bible. She also enjoys spending time with her family and friends which she no longer takes for granted, for they are all Hurricane Katrina survivors who are now scattered about. Irma says she treasures her family and friends and is blessed to still have her mom and her dad, and grandfather, who is 102 years old. Her mission in life is to teach others how to be "doers and not just hearers of the word only" and to encourage them to become all that God has created them to be. We welcome her to the Poets United for Christ Family.
