• As we produce the fruit of thanksgiving, we bear living evidence that by connection with Christ we are placed on vantage ground. God is the fountain of life and power. He can make the wilderness a fruitful field for those who keep His commandments; for it is for the glory of His name to do this. –Ellen G. White.
• If you’re thankful for something, this is a space where you can express that blessing and you’ll feel even more happier and you’ll be more aware of the beautiful things God make for us. And if for some reason, you don't remember anything to be thankful about, we'll write some things that maybe we don't notice but that are big blessings we receive every single day.

Journey: Into The Never-ending Way
Why does one travel from a well known neighborhood to another where the outcome of the visit is not yet understood? I could name the streets and places in my neighborhood. There was a well defined map in my head that used comfortable explanations for what to expect. Then, everything changed. I drove up the hill, parked the car in a familiar place. When I walked into the house all the furniture was the same. Yet, when I sat beside him everything I knew went away. My mind was empty, only able to engage in superficial talk. I was afraid of his cancer. I didn't know what to say or how to help. I was lost in the whole sorry business. I gave him what comfort my presence was good for and, he gracefully accepted it like a brother would. Behind the warmest smile I could draw up was a deserted beach, waves of questions washing against my feet. A great ocean met the horizon and disappeared somewhere beyond where eyes could take a mind. Where would the questions take me? Where do you start such a quest?Complete
My Highlighted Bible Verses
No one knows the things of God except the Spirit of God. You can learn by reading His Word, the Bible. God will let you understand what He wants you to understand, when He wants you to understand, and how He wants you to understand - He is the only one who really understands you. Are we living in the end of time? Only God knows that, but there are some telling signs in the Bible. The only thing we can really do is love and trust God. Here is how I post my entries - I open the Bible and post what I see, at least about 90% of the time. I really feel that God or the Holy Spirit is directing me. I can't explain some of them. Hey, I am just a normal sinner like everyone else. I need and ask for His forgiveness daily. I feel, if God wants you to, you will read my entries, well, His entries.Complete
Commandments Y
In Commandments Y, we delve into the profound reasons behind the divine gift of the Ten Commandments, known as the Ten Words. These sacred directives, given by YHVH, are not mere rules but a pathway to blessings, promising liberty and life if obeyed, and warning of curses if disobeyed. The commandments were bestowed upon us to deliver freedom from the bondage of Egypt and the oppressive power of the devil and his fallen angels. They offer protection against the malevolence of demons, the disembodied spirits of the Nephilim, who are the wickedness that lurks in high places. In today's world, amidst confessions from modern-day priests and pastors across denominations, the truth about the Sabbath emerges clearly: it is Saturday, the seventh day, not Sunday, the first day of the week. This revelation places us at a critical juncture, standing on the edge of a knife, faced with a choice as ancient as the trees of life and death. Commandments Y calls us to choose our destiny wisely, to embrace the life-giving commandments and to reaffirm our love for YHVH and our neighbors, securing the liberty and blessings intended for us.
The Book of Genesis (NIV)
I've decided to do a long term project of writing the New International Version of the Christian Bible in its entirety here on Wattpad to get the Christian message across. God is good and he created us in His image. Every problem you face in your life, no matter what that problem is, there is always an answer somewhere in the Christian Bible. How can I start anywhere else other than where it all began? Ladies and gentlemen, here are all 50 chapters of the Book of Genesis as written in the New International Version of the Christian Bible. The other books shall be published shortly. I hope you all enjoy and God bless every single one of you! :)Complete
Jesus Was An Alien (and Other Stories of Faith)
"Created for His Good Pleasure." So begins Jesus Was An Alien (and Other Stories of Faith). Here you might talk to Jesus about your neighbors and get his perspective. Here you may encounter God in flip flops in a boardroom or discover that Jesus was an Alien (or not). Here a funeral can be a wedding and an eight year old evangelist can teach you the heart of God. Watch as El Shaddai, the Almighty God, Intervenes at the Tower of Babel. Discover the way of the desert warrior with Joshua at the foot of Mt. Sinai and rejoice at the shock of Lucifer at the cross when Jesus raises his spiritual head and looks on his enemy in triumph. All this, and more, awaits to inspire your own story of faith. Read. Share. Love. The Divine Story is lived in you and through you.Complete
Like The Thunder Roaring
"The true light that gives light to everyone was coming into the world. He was in the World, and though the world was made through him, the world did not recognize him. He came to that which was his own, but his own did not receive him. Yet to all who did receive him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God--children born not of natural descent, nor of human decision or a husband's will, but born of God. The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. We have seen his glory, the glory of the one and only Son, who came from the Father, full of grace and truth." (John 1:9-14) What that first Easter might have been like. The climax of God's plan for humanity, from Palm Sunday to Peter's reinstatement. Main title and chapter titles are from songs that I used to capture the mood of the moment, as it were, and I would really encourage you to listen to them. They are: Main title: "Glory" by The City Harmonic 1. without a crown: "Baby Boy" by For King & Country 2. the taste of eternity is here on our lips: "Taste of Eternity" by Bellarive 3. let me see redemption win: "Worn" by Tenth Avenue North 4. i heard a voice from the other side singing, "hold fast, love lasts.": "Without You" by For King & Country 5. when you know it, once you know it, and you hold it--it's unforgettable: "To The Dreamers" by For King & Country 6. keep my head from going down: "Something To Believe In" by Parachute 7. i could use a fresh beginning, too: "Learning to Breathe" by Switchfoot (cover by @sugarcrystals, who is amazing and you should really check out her work. Both writing wise and cover wise. I literally gave her "thunder storm themed" and she came up with that. Because I am useless at giving hints.)Complete

The Anointing
Is your church boring and lacking in anything remotely spiritual? Hopefully, it won't take a funeral for the death of a scoundrel to get things moving in the right direction. This is another one in the short story collection called Jesus was an Alien (and Other Stories of Faith).Complete
He saved you He saved me What about others?
The world was full of trouble. Full of confusion and a catastrophic dilemma. One couldn't imagine at what destructive measure it would disintegrate into. While so many things were done to make the world a better place. At some point, it would later be revealed that the biggest problem was not a lack of educational facilities or a lack of health facilities. Believe it or not, Africa, also wasn't the world's biggest problem. The problem with the world today is sin. Sin brought about problems that would perpetuate into many more generations to come! It's almost unbelievable that someone would leave greener pastures to settle in a beat-down environment like Earth. One would wonder what this being could ever want. If life existed beyond the surfaces of our universe, why stay? If there was the possibility of walking with a glory that outshined the brightness of the sun, why hesitate? God cannot love us anymore than He loves our neighbor. His love tank is so vast that it accommodates everyone. Had He only sent Jesus Christ to the rich or the poor in African households, His love would then be conditioned to those that qualified. What makes His love so unique and strange is that He loves the broken and the sinners. He loves those of us that are unlikeable and unattractive. He persuaded His only son to die gruesomely to have all of mankind at His bosom. In the movies, opening doors and buying a bouquet of flowers is symbolic of love. In families, love is expressed in many different kind of forms. Even animals have ways in which they show affection. While all of that might stand out. It cannot be compared to the love of God. God can feel love, and He is love!Complete
