This book is based on the first three chapters of the book of Hosea from the Bible. The basics are that Hosea is a prophet that God tells to go and marry a prostitute. And not just any prostitute, he's to marry Gomer. She will give birth to three children and leave her husband. Hosea divorces her and she goes back to what she knows. He ends up providing for her, even when she is no longer his wife.
Now there are all kinds of symbolic references to the Children of Israel with this book. I'm not going into all that. It's actually spelled out in the rest of the book and there are many commentaries explaining what God was doing. I just want the chance to expound on it. I've modernized and romanticized it (I guess that's the word to use) so it is set in present times, with modern language etc. I hope you enjoy it.

SAVE YOUR MARRIAGE And Develop A Lifelong Love
The Bible says: Choose faithfulness; divorce is not an option. "Give honor to marriage, and remain faithful to one another in marriage." Hebrews 13:4 "But Ruth said, "Do not urge me to leave you or to return from following you. For where you go I will go, and where you lodge I will lodge. Your people shall be my people, and your God my God. Where you die I will die, and there I will be buried. May the Lord do so to me and more also if anything but death parts me from you."(Ruth 1:16-17) Lifelong commitment reflects and grows out of a realization that God created marriage and gave it to men and women as a priceless gift. Malachi 2:15 says, "God, not you, made marriage. His Spirit inhabits even the smallest details of marriage...so guard the spirit of marriage within you." "Therefore what God has joined together, let no one separate" (Matthew 19:6). Remember, the retreat is easy when you have the option. As the Bible says, "So also faith by itself, if it does not have works, is dead." (James 2:17). It's the same way in personal relationships. You demonstrate how important your marriage is to you by proactively investing time and money to make it better. During difficult seasons you fight for your marriage. In season and out of season, you show yourself willing to do whatever it takes to keep your relationship strongConcluída
Single Pringles
**DISCLAIMER: I was around sixteen, seventeen years old when I wrote this. I probably no longer agree with most of this stuff, as I am over twenty now and I know a lot more and have had a lot of opinion changes. I'm so so glad it hasn't had nearly as much traction as "I Kissed Dating Goodbye" by Joshua Harris. Take this advice or critique it however you like, just please for the love of God don't be afraid to make mistakes or of getting hurt, and if you get hurt, it isn't the end of the world and it doesn't taint you or make you broken. Also go out and have fun and be safe. Go out and have sex and do more "ungodly" and "sinful" things. Here's a shaker of salt, and take as many grains of it as you want or need. ****************** Single? Wishing you had a boyfriend? Wondering what God's plans for you and your marriage are? Well, help is here! This book covers the purpose of being single and the steps for preparation for marriage. ******************* ***Highest Ranking: #231 in Spiritual but it was changed to Non-Fiction*** ***Highest Ranking: #86 in Non-Fiction*** ********************* If you are reading this story on any other platform other than Wattpad, then you are very likely to be at risk of a malware attack.

God-confident!
If you have paid for a copy of this e-book, please demand for your money back because this is free. Please feel free to give out a copy of this e-book to everyone you know who needs it. I have written this for confused women who don't know how to value themselves. I've written this book for that young lady who doesn't see her worth. I have written this for that insecure girl who wants to take her own life because she feels her life isn't worth living anymore. May God use the words in this to breathe life into tired souls. What makes me qualified to write this kind of e-book? I can tell you that I was once very insecure about myself. I have been all that I've mentioned above. When I was a child, I had death wishes. When I grew into a teenager, I wanted to kill myself or wanted to disappear and be invisible. When I grew into adulthood, I was so insecure about my own self-worth that I let it stop me from living the life I was supposed to live. But I outgrew all of these because I grew confident - confident of God and myself. I won't say that I've reached the perfect level of confidence but I grew up a lot. In this e-book, I will talk about confidence and identity. I hope you will take the time to take this growth development with me. I have made this a God-book because after all - God is the source of confidence.Concluída

Another Practical Guide to the Logic, Philosophy, and Thoughts of Christianity
Why do so many people on this planet believe in a divine being? Is it even sensible to believe in one? With increasing progression in human knowledge of the natural world around, there seems little reason to believe in a divine being. With this, the pressure increases on both the agnostic and Christian to abandon their search for the answer. Yet on the other front, the Christian also begins to face the rise of old enemies that once plagued Christian orthodoxy. Similar to its predecessor, this book and its compilation of themed articles addresses the issues in the logic, philosophy and thoughts of Christianity from a layperson point of view. Some of these articles serve to expand and clarify the points raised in its predecessor, and some on completely new topics. Yet unlike the predecessor, this book focuses more on the doctrine and basis of Orthodox Christian beliefs and how Christians can apply them to everyday life through articles that are once again, academic, reflective, and argumentative. Just like 'A Practical Guide to the Logic, Philosophy, and Thoughts of Christianity', this book is the result of a single individual's search for God. It promises to be challenging and thought provoking for the genuinely open-minded and interested. Even so, the articles are at best 'arm-chair theology' and are therefore meant to be easily understood by any interested agnostic and Christian with a slow yet provocative push into the basis of Christianity and her doctrines.Concluída
Wife for a Year
"My name is Rashiq Salim bin Fiqri Zafar, Crown Prince of Arandia and I need your help." "I'm sorry, did you say prince?" "Yes, and you, Ms. Walker are going to be my bride." She spluttered her coffee over him again. "What?!" Simply a business proposal... The last thing Annabelle Walker expected was a handsome, rich billionaire sheikh prince walking into her life and proposing marriage to her for a span of a year. Or even the fact that she would agree to his proposal. The next thing she knows, her life is never the same. Juggling between college and keeping their marriage a secret, there are more burdens and secrecy than before. Pressure builds during the day but is relinquished in passion-filled nights in her husband's bed... Or could it be more? Rashiq Zafar, Crown Prince of Arandia needs a wife and he needs it quick. When he sees Annabelle Walker, she fit his requirements perfectly. She needs money and he had money. All he needs her is for a year and they would walk away unaffected. But the last thing he expected was new emotions to follow his decision to get married... _____________________________________________________________ Okay, I've been getting a lot of offensive comments on his religion and race and bla bla bla. I just want to let you know that where I come from, I do know the basic customs and I think some of you are being too offensive for a fictional story. This story has absolutely no relations to religion. At all. All I did was select a certain nationality for my main lead. Plus, its a fictional country! I have done my research and I do not appreciate people saying my characters are going to hell and stuff. So, I've changed the name a bit and removed the "bin". Once again, I'll say this, this story has some sexual content so if you are sensitive to it either due to morality or religious reasons, please do not read any further. Thank you. PS: The rest of you, do enjoy!Concluída
