In His Service, Love Always, Ms. Jackson is an inspirational and insightful book on purpose and love, a book for those who want to make a difference. From the opening pages, author Okisha Jackson states: “I wrote this letter because this world is a cold and mean place. There are people who want to make a difference. That desire to live a life of purpose and be remembered for bringing out the best in others, but don’t know where to begin.” In her inimitable style, the author explores the depths of the human heart, how to avoid the hypocrisy of the religiosity of our world, and shares insights and stories that explain what it means and feels like to be purpose-driven, to live for others, to do meaningful work — like her grandmother — and to leave a positive legacy for humanity.
This book is a quick read that can be finished within a few hours, but it is not the kind of book to rush through, because it is filled with passages and insightful points to ponder about life. The work is written in an epistolary style that gets readers engaged, because the author addresses them. The author speaks as though she is making journal entries and her voice comes across like that of a friend inviting you into an exciting adventure. The writing is simple, conversational, and engaging, and readers will enjoy the confidence with which the author shares her views on life, drawing inspiration from personal stories that are both thought provoking and entertaining. In His Service, Love Always, Ms. Jackson is a meaningful offering that invites readers to rethink the way they live their lives. It’s packed with wisdom, love, and insight. One of those books you read and want to pass on.
