Pocketbook Verse Novels & Stories

The burn of the brandy scorched its way down my throat—a sharp, welcome fire that silenced the noise in my head. Lucas, never one to let silence breathe for long, spoke again. “Speaking of losing your mind,” he said, his tone shifting from mockery to something more serious. “I sought some spiritual guidance on your behalf.” He pulled a thin, leather-bound book from inside his coat. It was his pocket scripture, a book of ancient pack laws and prophecies he carried everywhere. Sliding it across the table until it rested near my glass, he told me to look at page forty-two. He tapped the spot with his finger.

"We continue to study what the Bible says about Jesus Christ. In Mark 11:24, Jesus says, 'Therefore, I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will all be yours.' Ptr Kris read from the bible, adding, "In Luke 10:3, "Go, I am sending you out like lambs among wolves." Let's also look at verse 18,'I saw Satan fall like lightning from heaven.' Verse 19,'I have given you authority to trample on snakes and scorpions and to overcome all the power of the enemies; nothing will harm you." “Verse 20 says, ‘However, do not rejoice that the spirits submit to you, but rejoice that your name is written in heaven.’ “Ptr Kris continues, "This is the Word of God."

Jennifer said shaking her head "Yea,but the sad thing is that everybody isn't going to accept this truth or believe in it" "Why?" Jennifer asked. "It's plain and simple of what the bible says" "Most people rather believe in men instead of their own God. Many are called but few are chosen" "Many are called but few are chosen. What scripture is that?" Jennifer asked "Matthew chapter twenty two and verse fourteen" Sophia replied "How do you know if you're chosen to be into this truth?" Jennifer asked

he asked in a low voice. Only then did Kimberly realize she was holding a Latin version of the Bible. He had already taken the thick book from her without waiting for her to respond. He put the bothersome book aside. His cool voice became more profound, "In the Old Testament of the Bible, there is a poem that doesn't carry any religious colors. It's devoid of God or deities, speaking only of the girl he loves." "Do you want to hear it?" "Mhm." Kimberly felt his wandering hand; her cheeks flushed red, and she casually replied.

Mr Jayson said and left the place. Aiden turned to look at the bed which looked very comfy, with a blanket. Aside from his phone that was taken away from him, he kept every other thing that was his. He saw a white book with the Holy Bible boldly written on it. He walked towards the bed and picked it up. He had never used a bible before and didn't know where to find Romans. He checked the first page and found the index. He used that to find the scripture and he read it. 'For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us'

Jarrold stared, utterly thrown. He hadn't expected me to take the bag. In the past, I'd always refused his gifts, terrified he'd think I was some cheap gold digger. When he finally found his voice, he said, "As long as you like it." I looked down at the purse in my hands—a five-figure masterpiece that screamed old money. The longer I stared, the more I liked it. My father was a degenerate gambler. My mother was rotting away in a hospital bed. We were drowning in a sea of debt they didn't know I knew about.

What's this? "I have another one. I want you to have it. Whenever you feel confused, just read it." She opens where her bookmarker is placed and says, "Read that." For a moment, I watch her before I read it and then say, "Okay?" "No! Read it out loud so I can hear it, too." "Though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death. I will fear no evil, for you are with me." Still glaring through her, she smiles, saying, "That's Psalm 23, verse four. I know it by heart."

“ You do know that it's only Tuesday today, the third day of the week. ” “ I know, right? ” “ Yeah. My favorite verse for this week is Matthew 6vs25. Which says, “ Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink; nor yet for your body, what ye shall put on. Is not life more than meat, and the body more than raiment? ” “ Oh, wow. That's a very beautiful verse. Mine has been, Ephesians 4 vs 32. Which says, “ And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ's sake hath forgiven you. ”

I insisted. Drayce sighed. “I don’t know why that you can’t see it, but they wrote it in god’s text. No mortal could read this even me, but you, you could read it with no struggles.” And he looks impressed. “Really? You wrote it in a different text?” I looked at the paper one more time, but I still see simple words. I don’t know if Drayce is just fooling with me. “This is impossible.” Apollo said. “Who took this from her? This is a song that I wrote for her.”
