In FACING ADVERSITY: THOUGHTS OF WISDOM, PRAISE, AND PROMISE Ms Zelenka concludes her devotional trilogy with words inspired by the book of Proverbs and Psalms. Devotions are full of wise counsel and instruction seasoned with scriptural encouragement, hope, and the promises of God. Cheryl believes that the perfect love of God and His sovereignty are key points to consider when facing adversity. Nothing is a coincidence and Cheryl challenges her readers to consider: Are times of trouble actually one of God’s greatest blessings?
I was born in Detroit, MI to a couple who are still happily married. I consider my parents one of my greatest blessings. They brought me up with love and faith.
I taught elementary school for over 25 years. Due to a brain tumor, I developed clinical depression and quit my job. With God's grace I faced my GIANTS and started a new life as an author. My passion is to use personal trials to encourage others in their walk with God.
My second book, Divine Interruptions: A Bible Study Through The Book Of Job is now available on Amazon. I share my struggle recovering from brain surgery and align the experience with lessons found in this wonderful story.
My newest writing adventure is in creating the Sadie Sunshine Cozy Mystery Series. School Lunch is Murder and Belly up in the Koi Pond are both available on Amazon.
I presently live in Colorado Springs with my two dogs, Bosco Bill and Akasha Kelly
