Cast all your anxiety on Him because he cares for you. (1 Peter 5:7/NIV)
GOD IS LOVE
For Ashley Thompson McClelland, it all unfolded approximately a decade ago, she recalls.
“He gave me the vision to write this book over 10 years ago when I was a love hungry teenager, not knowing how to navigate my singleness and my faith in a godly way,” McClelland, during an interview this week with Making Headline News, said, recalling the memorable developments surrounding her featured authorship adventure.
The book to which McClelland is alluding is Romantic Rendezvous For The Soul: Pleasure That Makes You Whole, her awe-inspiring sophomore written work that made its official debut in December 2019.
“I wrote this book as a divine invitation for the hearts of women to experience the most healing, wonderful, fulfilling, wholesome and saving love of all,” McClelland told MHN. “I passionately seek to woo the Bride of Christ back to her First Love with the most attractive refinement and grace of the best dinner hostess and therapist. During my single years, I discovered a profound mystery Paul described in Ephesians 5:32, the bridegroom love of Jesus and I seek to bring others to the abundant table of this revelation.”

A riveting, informative book that is comprised of 160 pages, McClelland’s Romantic Rendezvous For The Soul: Pleasure That Makes You Whole eloquently reminds her audience that for centuries, the female heart has melted with desire for the lasting pleasure of unchanging love, according to a detailed breakdown of this writer’s book via Amazon.com.
“In the course of time, civilizations have risen and fallen, yet the single longing for tangible intimacy has never faded,” said an Amazon spokesperson for McClelland’s Romantic Rendezvous For The Soul: Pleasure That Makes You Whole. “Millions of lyrics have been written to the passionate tune of this fluid yearning.
TRIO OF BLESSINGS
Moreover, McClelland writes, “Unfortunately, few people find the lasting love that they longed for as children. Life, education, and societal pressure transform what was once a tangible hope into a mythical fairy tale. Industries have reaped unlimited monetary gain from the erosion of this waned hope. Billions of girls grow up into women who have long since tossed their dream of true love in the trash bin of cynicism.
“Countless others have buried their ache of unmet desire under the disappointment of failed relationships and hopelessness,” McClelland, a Monterey, California-based author, continued. “Despite most women’s best attempts, this starved craving remains alive like a stimulating aroma. This ethereal hope goes back to the first relationship…in a place of being so seen and lovingly known that she was naked and unashamed.
“This novella was not written to add salt to the gaping wound of unsatisfied need. It was written to satisfy the need completely. Let Romantic Rendezvous For The Soul introduce you to a lasting relationship with transcendent love where reality becomes sweeter than your dreams.”

According to McClelland, she commenced to composing Romantic Rendezvous For The Soul: Pleasure That Makes You Whole while in her “twenties” and finished her featured written work in December 2018.
“The divine message is you have a feminine soul that was divinely made to be fully loved and cherished and Jesus wants to offer this to you more than you can imagine,” McClelland explained. “I fully believe Romantic Rendezvous For The Soul has the power to transform the hearts of women and young girls through receiving the pure love of Jesus. The Gospel is all about heart transformation when God takes our hearts of stone and gives us a heart of flesh.
“As a woman, as a minister and, most importantly, as a daughter of God, I know the damage that an unloved heart can spiral into. You don’t have to seek for love and validation in broken and harmful places. Perfect, everlasting love is waiting for your acceptance.”
McClelland made her authorship debut in March 2018 with the release of Visions of Celestial Love: An Invitation Into Healing Intimacy. Consequently, she released her third solo-authored book, Fallen Coins: A Lesson On The Blessings of Obedience, in August 2023.
And, on Wednesday, she witnessed the release of His Beauty For My Ashes, an Amazon No. 1 Bestseller anthology that is spearheaded by Visionary Author Dr. Sherley Lefevre.
McClelland is one of eight co-authors for His Beauty For My Ashes, which is dedicated exclusively to all the kings and queens who are currently transitioning from a season of weeping into a season of reaping, according to a detailed synopsis of Dr. Lefevre’s anthology via Barne & Noble online.
ON HOLY GROUND
As for Romantic Rendezvous For The Soul, McClelland said:
“I believe God has created me and all His children to know Him, truly know Him and express Him to the world around us. The more we know God, the more we realize how much He loves us, the more we receive his love, the more we will fall in love with Him, the more we love Him, the more effortlessly it will become to follow him obediently and reach out to the world around us.
“In Mark 3:14, we see that Jesus calls His 12 apostles to first be with Him and then to send them out to preach. All true fruitfulness for God’s kingdom flows from intimacy with Jesus. My purpose is to be with Him and to follow Him in touching lives.”
