In her poetry, Helen Steiner Rice talks about God as if he were right at her elbow, and she sincerely believes that he is.

Widowed while in her twenties, Mrs Rice became a successful businesswoman and lecturer, but found her most satisfying outlet in writing verse for a prominent greeting card company. Her gift for expressing familiar thoughts, coupled with her deep Christian faith, resulted in many volumes of bestsellers, including Someone Cares, Heart Gifts, Everyone Needs Someone and Loving Promises.
