To describe someone's emotions is one of the most difficult things a human being can do. While not technically difficult like calculating mathematics, to put thoughts and emotions into words that accurately describe them is simply beyond any person's normal ability. To illustrate bereavement, much less any kind of loss, is a herculean demand unfairly imposed on anyone in times of great loss. To illustrate someone's loss without their presence, however, goes far beyond the definition of herculean into the realm of ludicrously impossible. The very notion of speaking for someone else, a lifelong friend no less, would turn people away and rightfully so. The task alone is plenty difficult for the grieving individual. Most turning away from this is the expected and normal outcome. Yet for a select group of friends they must do that. A select few friends must retrace Michael Crawford's life journey for it has been lost to time. A life journey filled with calamity and loss unfair to any human being. Even the starting line the friends agree on is little more than a Prelude to Bereavement. A build up to a heartbreaking loss that will set Michael Crawford down the road to infamy.
Y todo se salio de control, mi madre nos cubria con su cuerpo y nos arrinconaba pero nunca dejo de rezar.

She is encouraged by an elderly friend to make contact with the county attorney, Max Hastings, who is also a main character threatened by the cartel.The plot weaves the fictionalized main characters and supporting cast in a web of crime, torture, mayhem, and murder.The connecting element of the initial book and subsequent releases is a professor, Bradford Wainwright, who has received the manuscript from an unknown source with the directive to be read by him alone with the promise a future manuscript will identify him as the author.Once Wainwright finishes reading the initial manuscript and he is speaking to his agent, the second book arrives.
La lucha por lograr la maternidad, librada por numerosas mujeres, está fielmente reflejada en esta triste historia, escrita a punta de tesón y lágrimas. No quedan dudas de que servirá de espejo para aquellas que aún no han iniciado el recorrido por tan dichoso camino que, aunque está lleno de dificultades, también, es honroso reconocerlo, la mayoría de las veces conduce a un final feliz.La autora narra con lujo de detalles las peripecias por las que debió pasar para alcanzar su sueño de ser madre. En ellas se enfrentó, cara a cara, con el destino y contra personas viles que se opusieron con toda su fuerza a que el sueño se convirtiera en realidad."Secretos de un arcoíris" es una obra que invita a la reflexión. El lector, además, encontrará en la segunda parte una interesante discusión que se plantea sobre lo que, a través del tiempo, se ha dado por llamar instinto materno.Luchar es un verbo acertado considerando la presión social arraigada a la maternidad y nuestro continuo interés por coincidir con las normas. Y es que, cuando una mujer no experimenta dichas sensaciones, muchas veces pasa a sentir culpa, angustia y depresión, y ve su maternidad como un fracaso.Queda abierta la invitación para todo aquel que esté dispuesto a realizar un cambio en su quehacer cotidiano para lograr una forma de vida más razonable.

Que tuvo el deseo de conocer la gloria de Dios.Habla de los acontecimientos mundiales que se desatarian en los ultimos dias de nuestra existencia, sucesos inesperados que harian entrar en un profundo temor a la humanidad.Ademas, trata de una esperanza que el creador Dios ha dado a cada ser humano, en nuestras vidas y la esperanza de un futuro mejor.Una historia que conmovera a las personas y llenara de esperanza a los aplastados de corazon, que llenara al mismo tiempo de alegria, un futuro mejor y venidero que Dios nos ha prometido.Apocalipsis 21,4: "y les secara lagrimas de sus ojos y la muerte ya no existira ni habra mas tristeza ni llanto ni dolor...".
En la inmensidad del universo y de todo lo que habita en este espacio, he encontrado poesia, inspiracion para escribir lo que en mi percepcion es la belleza de una realidad y de una utopia al mismo tiempo.En este libro quise plasmar de manera subjetiva todo aquello que da vida a la creacion del mas bello y puro sentir del alma, de ese sueno maravilloso y convertirlo en verso.Deseo que lo que aqui se encuentra escrito lo degusten y lo hagan suyo. Que ese ser que habita en su interior despierte con cada palabra, con cada latido y con el amor intrinseco a mi poesia.La portada de esta obra fue pintada por la artista Gabriela Gutierrez Gutierrez
I woke up one day, my body in pain because of all the punches and kicks I had received, my lips full of stitches, my eyes swollen and with black circles from all the hits. Then I saw myself in the mirror, "This cannot be!" I told myself. I wondered why I needed to be in such conditions. Then I started to reconsider and look back at my past, and asked myself what I had gotten from that character I had and realized it had brought me nothing good. Furthermore, I wasted too many years of my life and that, precisely, is what I would like you to avoid. You've spent several years of suffering because you did not know how to live, just like I threw away all those years. I already lived that, and it is definitely not nice to live an ungovernable life.Praised be to God, for I have changed, and I am entirely different. If I could change my life, you can do it too. We are all children of a loving God.I sought an opportunity, and I got it. It came with a smile and told me, "I am here, right by your side. Let's move forward because life is a battle."

For When Evil Walks, death follows.
As the grotesque figure stepped closer to Myung-Dae Kwon, his stomach convulsed from the foul stench that enveloped him. The servant of Satan planted himself firmly only a few feet from Myung-Dae Kwon and bellowed with a voice that shook the ground for miles. His putrid breath dropped birds in flight and frogs from the trees to the ground. It laid the tall wheat grass down around the path as far as one could see.At the bank of the Han River, Kim heard the unholy roar of the beast and fell back into the longboat. Peering over the side, he saw the river water dancing (as it does when an alligator sounds its mating call). Kim saw the birds falling from the sky and the frogs dropping into the river and along the shore. He was struck with fear.The repugnant creature spoke to Myung-Dae Kwon with a horrifying voice. "In your cloak you carry a script that belongs to me. Put it in this box, and I will not harm you."
As time goes on, the natural world around us is also growing violent, cold, and uncaring. Some people fail to realize (or know but ignore) the evil, hidden agenda that takes place against humanity in the realm of the spirit--the place where the real fight is! Beyond the Eyes gives insight to living a life beyond what we see with our natural eyes. It is a life that moves past our emotions and allows us to be driven by our spirit. We wrestle not against flesh and blood but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places (Ephesians 6:12).Through the Holy Spirit, we have access to see what can cause the motion or paint the narrative of things we see in the natural and use noncarnal weapons, like prayer, to change them. These stories give a glimpse of the warfare that happens in the realm of the spirit and how, through Jesus Christ, the victory is won.

Our Journey to Oneness: How He Found Me is our story of how we were 6,202 miles apart; how our Father, Jehovah, Lord Jesus, and the Holy Spirit was talking to us about the same plans, dreams, and visions for our lives in their kingdom; how our meeting would be from afar--meaning, we had never met or seen each other. We had no idea He meant we were from different countries, that my prayer would be answered as I prayed my husband would know I'm his wife at first sight. As I opened my mouth to speak the words of kindness, Oluwagbemiga would experience peace like never before. Once he found me, his mind would be at rest because his lifelong seeking had been fulfilled as God promised him. As we share the story of God's unfailing love for us, we just celebrated our second year of marriage. We tell you about our waiting, meeting, engagement, wedding, and foundation building of our marriage, ministry, businesses, home, and family.

This book contains poems and stories that carry meaning. Throughout the years, I have written hundreds and hundreds of pieces. You don't see them all because I was scared of what everyone else thought. After each notebook or paper was written, I burned it in my grandpa's fireplace. As I had gotten older, I realized I never wanted to burn away my words anymore. Everyone deserves to be heard, no matter how small the words are.These poems and short stories are all gonna be different. They all bear various emotions and results, as life does too. Love, sadness, loneliness, and happiness are the core conscience in the human body. I had difficulty separating those emotions, so I had developed a fake smile for whenever I felt not okay. I hope this shines a little understanding of what was in a little-troubled human being's mind.

This book breaks down the dynamics of the most talked about parts of the Gospel or Scripture. The Gospel is made plain to all who believe. It is God's living Word, which became flesh in manifestation of Jesus Christ. God's Word is truly like a puzzle, which can only be pieced together by faith. Nevertheless, I don't find it strange that God would want it this way. He is clear that He wants our diligent, wholehearted efforts in knowing Him and receiving His glorious kingdom. This book is the true definition of tough love.

Wins and Losses is a fictional story of a family--Tate, Eve, and Jenna Richards--who became all too familiar with wins and losses in their lives. This book introduces Tate and Eve Richards and follows their journey into parenthood where they suffer one of their greatest losses. Their daughter, Jenna, literally from birth, without even knowing it, experiences one of her first losses and invites readers to ride alongside her as she travels through life, continuing to experience more wins and losses. The wins and losses ultimately shape her into the young woman she becomes.It's my hope that readers will realize that some losses in life allow us to grow and teach us that no person will be able to experience only wins. Both wins and losses cause people to react in a way that force them to push themselves in directions they may never have considered before. This may sound a bit harsh, but my goal in writing this book was to help people realize that some of the losses experienced in life, regardless of the pain they may have caused, happen for a reason. Those losses, whether understood or not, can and do sometimes open a door to allow them to find something or someone they would not have been able to find had they not experienced that loss. Losses in people's lives are sometimes hidden blessings that enable them to find something that, unbeknownst to them, they have been searching for. Life is filled with wins and losses of some kind. No one can win or lose unless they participate.
