Hi there! I was wondering if you could give a shot at my friend's Urban Fantasy Romance: THE COURAGE OF STARS. It'd mean a lot to both of us.
          
          I'll leave a link here in case you're interested in: https://www.wattpad.com/story/179721584-the-courage-of-stars
          
          Thank you for your time.

Merry Christmas!!!
          I am really grateful for Christ's birth. That little baby grew up to be the Guy who changed the world forever and this time of year we get to set aside special time to celebrate His coming into the world. For those of you who don't celebrate Christmas for the reasons that I do, happy holidays :)

Veteran's Day-  the day in which Americans celebrate, honor and appreciate those living and dead who have answered the call to fight for our freedoms. I went to a program today that asked each veteran attending to stand as they called out their name, branch of service, and how long they served. Some stood tall and regal, emulating exactly what you'd expect a hero to look like; others were wrinkled and weak, barely able to support themselves long enough before plopping back in their seats.
          
          These brave men and women fought for my country in hopes that the next generations would never need to, but their gray hair and weathered skin reminded me that they're human. These heroes are human. Humans who have cried tears, cracked jokes, felt fear, and many have lived long, long lives. They're survivors. It's kind of inspiring, to say the least. Sometimes I forget what they've done for me and my country, because they tend to blend in. They're farmers, teachers, parents, and grandparents, too.
          
          Which is why I don't want to turn my attention away from today. America is far from from perfect, but even with all its faults, it has become my home. Seeing over 20 veterans that I personally knew being appreciated, seeing people proudly standing for the presentation of colors, seeing people wipe away tears as we sang My Country Tis of Thee, God Bless the USA, America the Beautiful, and I Hear America Singing (me included), and seeing everyone clap for those who stood once their military service song came up in Armed Forces on Parade... the whole deal was pretty bittersweet. But my main point is: veterans, thank you.
          
          Truly, God bless America.

Summer is just around the corner and it's sneaking up fast *throws celebratory confetti* Are you excited? If ya can't tell, I sure am XD 
          
          Have a great weekend.... God bless 

"Christ is risen, He is risen indeed!
          Oh, sing hallelujah.
          Join the chorus, sing with the redeemed;
          Christ is risen, He is risen indeed."
          
          "Amazing grace how sweet the sound
          That saved a wretch like me
          I once was lost, but now I'm found
          Was blind, but now I see...
          My chains are gone; I've been set free
          My God, my Savior has ransomed me
          And like a flood His mercy reigns
          Unending love
          Amazing grace."
          
          "What riches of kindness He lavished on us
          His blood was the payment, His life was the cost
          We stood 'neath a debt we could never afford
          Our sins, they are many, His mercy is more."
          
          I think it's very important to remember what Easter truly means. Like with Christmas, it's very easy to distracted by worldly things instead of the deeper meaning of *why* we celebrate what we celebrate. Sometimes I have to be reminded too, and ask myself the same question. And the answer is in these song lyrics: we celebrate because we rejoice at the thought of God's plan to redeem the fallen, to save even the most wretched, to break the chains of sin that held us down - all of which are results of His great grace and mighty mercy
          It wasn't 100 thousand strangers Jesus suffered and died for, it was for me and you.
          Happy Easter everyone, and have a blessed week :)

"Bring all your failures
          Bring your addictions
          Come lay them down
          At the foot of the cross
          Jesus is waiting
          God so loved the world."
          
          °°°°°°°°°
          
          "Even when I stumble, even when I fall
          Even when I turn back, still Your love is sure
          You will not abandon, You will not forsake
          You will cheer me onward with never-ending grace
          
          Sing with joy now, our God is for us
          The Father's love is a strong and mighty fortress
          Raise your voice now, no love is greater
          Who can stand against us if our God is for us."
          
          I remember the first time I sang in church - I can't remember what song it was, but it was a song I just learned in Sunday school, and I was excited to sing it again. I looked over at my father and he was laughing at me with a smirk on his face. I don't know why, but he was. My small child brain thought he was mocking me; maybe he was, maybe he wasn't. I closed my mouth and stared straight ahead, feeling shameful and embarrassed I had even opened my mouth. For the next two years I didn't sing, as I was scared I would be laughed at again. Then the day came where I finally opened my mouth and let out all my bottled-up praise, which rose up to meet God in Heaven.
          
          I now stand with my arms raised and heart full of praise. I feel no shame for worshipping the One who deserves it. I sing loudly; I sing proudly.
          
          Those two song excerpts I put are about Love, fitting for Valentine's Day. More importantly, they're about God's Love, steady and sure even when we are not. We fail and we fall but that is okay, because God will be there to help you up to your feet. Keep climbing to reach the prize. 
          
          Maybe this wasn't the type of love you wanted today, but let me tell you, it was the love we needed. Have a great day 

And please, if you don't mind, kindly read my story A Pastor's Daughter Diary.
          It's an amazing story with supernatural genre that I assure you you'll love.
