True Story
Desire, don't you drag me down
Into the dark abyss.
Let go your hold upon my heart--
Love is not meant to die like this.
Temptation, tempt my tongue no more
Let this be our last kiss.
Forget me next time you're in town--
Love cannot die like this.
Demons, depart from my dreams.
God, please take away the twist
That perverts my heart, my thoughts and soul.
Love will not die like this.
Chapter Three
Since I was now awake again, I might as well hurry and help with supper.
“Mom,” I said rushing headlong into the kitchen, where I was greeted with my whole family sitting at the table eating. "Why, I thought it wasn’t even suppertime yet!” I said confusedly, "I was out in the swing reading my book when I fell asleep. I’m sorry that I couldn’t help you prepare supper and that I lost track of the time.”
Chapter Two
After enjoying my breakfast, I hurried to my room complete my homework. Before I knew it, I heard my mother calling me from the kitchen, “Anne, it’s time for lunch! Please come to the kitchen!”
“Alright mom, I’m coming!” I called, hurriedly trying to finish my last math problem.
I surrender, to obey,
Everything He says, day by day.
I surrender, all my sin,
So I will win, to please Him.
I will try to no longer fall,
I answer His call,
I surrender all.
My journey towards a relationship with Jesus Christ began when I was born into a Christian family over eighteen years ago. Carefully and diligently, my parents taught me of God’s love as I grew old enough to speak and understand. They instilled in my mind the Biblical truths upon which I have learned to stand firmly, and encouraged me as I made the decision to follow Christ and ask Him to be the Lord and Savior of my life in December, 2000.
Hi all! I am sorry I haven't posted in a while, but I have been having some trouble with internet explorer that has made it really hard to post anything. Since I haven't posted anything in a while, I decided to just post a short story instead of another chapter in one of my other stories. I hope you like it. The main idea that I want to get across is that Jesus is Lord of all and can use anything to draw his children closer to him. Please let me know if I got that message across. Was the thing with the light and the darkness confusing, or did it enhance the meaning?
Watching Me.
They come to Him in prayer.
followers of the Creator on their knees
They’re asking for His care.
And rain is falling.
They ask Him to sustain
as they fast, eyes on Him
and choose to trust while in their pain.
And rain is falling.
Hearts of stone, of pride
He brings back from
the one who lied.
And rain is falling.
Lile didn’t leave the barn for two days. She slept in a loft and refused to leave Mischief’s side. Mia brought her food and water, but said nothing. The morning of the third day, she went out and dug a hole to bury the kitten. Then she dried her tears and went inside.
Coem was on his way out the door with his pack on his back when she entered. “Good morning, Lile!” He said.
“Morning,” Lile mumbled.
“I was going outside to gather some bark. Would you like to come?”
