"Born of the Spirit; or, Gems from the Book of Life" by Zenas Osborne is a religious memoir written in the late 19th century. The book recounts the author's profound spiritual journey characterized by themes of miraculous conversion and a deep connection to Christian faith. Through personal narratives, Osborne seeks to illustrate the enduring power of God's grace and the importance of living a life devoted to service and holiness. At the start of the narrative, the author reflects on his early religious upbringing and struggles with sin, leading to his eventual miraculous conversion experience. He describes the pivotal moment when he felt a divine call to choose between serving God and a life of sin. This opening portion delves into his intense emotional struggles, profound revelations about divine mercy, and the transformative power of faith. Osborne emphasizes the changes that took place in his life post-conversion, which set the foundation for his lifelong commitment to ministry and a life characterized by purpose and devotion to God.
