About the book:

From a Kept Child who Keeps on Keeping On

The cup of author Alma L. Carr-Jones runs over with the need to tell her story about God’s lovingkindness, justice, and righteousness!

We present to you The Tallest Mountain in My World Inspirational Series, with this first book in the series, Get Yourself Up. 

Inside, you’ll discover Sister Alma’s inspirational pieces, written with her delightful and warm voice that makes you feel like she’s your new best friend. You’ll laugh, you’ll cry, you’ll sigh, and you’ll pray as her stories envelop you, while entertaining, inspiring, and motivating you every step of the way.

From Sister Alma, “When folk and situations didn’t turn out the way I thought they would, God kept me and He’s keeping me still. When disappointment threatened to take me down, God kept me and is keeping me still. When diabetes invaded my body, He kept me and is keeping me still. When I thought I was in the know in a given situation and it turned out I was on the outside and didn’t know anything, He kept me and is keeping me still.”

Come into Sister Alma’s world and let her experiences and testimony minister to your weary soul. 

Alma L. Carr-Jones, a beloved educator, poet/author, a retired educator and a motivational speaker, lives in McKenzie, TN. She is a successful author of nine books to date. Alma loves to write because, as she is fond of saying, “It is something I was meant to do.” 

She is:

• An Avid Inspirational Daily Blog Writer 

• A Highly Acclaimed Retired Teacher of 30 Years

• Author of Nine Books

• A Preacher’s Wife of 40 years

• A w.o.w. (woman of work for the MASTER’s use)

This Christian lady is one who really tries to live up to her motto of “Doing What I Can, While I Can.” Since she is quite busy doing whatever her hands find to do, that old saying of wearing out instead of rusting out will be true of her. She says she wants to have made a difference in the lives of her fellowmen and to have built a legacy that will still speak, even after she is planted in the ground. 

To have the treasure of this woman’s work in your home is to have a loving dose of life as viewed from the eyes of a preacher’s daughter’s daughter and the wife of a preacher. This woman has a heart of gold with arms big enough and ears tender enough to help any soul stay encouraged as they make their way toward Heaven. Alma is such a jewel of a woman that she says, when you see her doing something that you admire, “Don’t get it twisted; it is not me, but the glory of GOD shining through me.”
