She opened her eyes and noticed the sun shining in the window. She lay on the mattress for a few moments and then stretched, yawning wide.
She threw back the covers and sat up looking around the room. She saw most of the other girls were still abed, only one of the taken bunks empty.
She...
He wanted to put his hands over his ears and block out the sounds of all the crying, laughing and screaming. He wanted to shout at them all to just shut up.
Some days he really hated his job. He hated it the most when he had to do this job.
All day he had been listening to the laughing...
She looked down at her cell phone and hit ignore.
“Who was that?”, her fiancé asked.
“My mother.”, she said with a grimace.
He shook his head. “I still don’t understand why you’re so angry with her. So your dad’s funeral was in a church with church songs and a sermon. Big deal.”
“It’s...
She kissed her fingertips and pressed them to the cool stone.
“I miss you my love.”, she whispered. “I’ll see you soon.”
Turning she headed toward her car, walking through the cemetery, thinking about her late husband.
Had it really been three years? It seemed as if only a few months had...
He glanced at the clock. 8:49pm. Good he thought to himself as he put down the six pack of cola and the bag of chips he had brought to his room. Sitting down in front of his gaming console he checked around his room to make sure he had everything he needed.
He heard his parents downstairs...
Yes. I can only write sporadically lately though. I have lots of ideas running around in my head. It's hard to get my thoughts in order the older I get. haha
The sun was high in the sky as they made their way down the beach. The teenagers dropped their towels and raced for the waves breaking on the sandy shoreline.
One girl sighed with happiness as she floated on her back, grateful they had the day to do whatever they wanted.
She looked over to...
The guards watched as the prisoners crowded together.
One guard raised an eyebrow at another and the two shook their heads and waited while a third walked away.
After a few moments the guard returned with the hose and with relish the three watched as the icy water doused those in the crowd...
The wedding had been beautiful, and the reception dinner had gone off without a hitch. There had been speeches, laughter, tears and great food. As the sun had set and the moon rose there had been fireworks which everyone had ooh’d and ahh’d over.
Now the dancing had been going on for hours and...
She watched the children playing as hymns were piped into the room from the speakers. She loved the days she volunteered at the nursery held at the local church. Never having had children of her own, she enjoyed being a “mother” for a few hours twice a week.
She looked at the younger woman who...
As I was looking over the comments and the link I discovered that Melchizedek is mentioned three times in the Bible. Very interesting and exciting as numerology in the Bible is never random. The number three represents above all the Holy Trinity.
Number 3 in the Bible represents the Holy Trinity...
Melchizedek fascinates me because he was both a priest and a king. Abraham paid a tithe to him as he was a patriarch. Also there is no mention of his genealogy, and no record of his birth or death. He is only mentioned twice, once in Genesis 14 18-20, and Hebrews 7 1-22. I know there is debate...
