In a world still reeling from the challenges of 2024, bestselling author Jody Sharpe offers a beacon of hope through her writings, emphasizing the transformative power of gratitude and love. Sharpe's recent article, 'Replacing Fear with Gratitude Will Find Joy', delves into the idea that shifting our mindset from fear to gratitude can pave the way for joy and unity in a divided world.
Sharpe's personal journey of loss and rediscovery of joy through an encounter she believes was with an angel underscores her message. Her experiences have not only shaped her worldview but also her prolific writing career, which includes award-winning novels such as 'Summer of Angels' and '20 Moon Road, An Angel's Tale'. These works, along with others like 'Town Of Angels Christmas' and 'Special Needs Children, The Angels On My Shoulder', explore themes of love, redemption, and the unseen support of angels in our lives.
The impact of Sharpe's work extends beyond the literary world. Her books, particularly those addressing bullying and special needs children, offer solace and inspiration. The Midwest Book Review praised her memoir for its ability to see the 'special' in 'special needs', highlighting her spiritual and social reflections that resonate with educators and parents alike.
Sharpe's commitment to spreading messages of hope and love is further evidenced by her 'Tuesdays With The Angels' blog section, where she shares real-life angel encounters. She invites submissions from the public, aiming to create a collective of stories that celebrate the miraculous and the mundane moments where angels might have played a role.
With two new screen treatments of her books in the works and a YouTube channel dedicated to topics close to her heart, Sharpe continues to inspire and uplift. Her belief in the power of love over hate, and gratitude over fear, offers a timely reminder of the potential for positive change in our world.
