Maybe we should have made an underground passage for me and my family to use for escaping the authorities?

She asked motioning to the line I had offered as she turned to face me. "That love is beautiful, no matter who or what you love," I replied softly looking at the dirt trail before me, since the people in this town travelled by carriages, there weren't any roads to- "There are a lot of those in the book, just one line across the page with no context," "That's because I had that book made, I took my favourite quotes and placed them together," I confessed "So what's the story behind your quote?" She asked and I smiled nervously as I glanced over to her clearing my throat before saying.

She cleared her throat, over-enunciating as though performing Shakespeare at the Globe Theatre. “Love isn’t patient, love isn’t kind… it’s fire, and it burns everything it touches.” She looked at me expectantly, starry-eyed. I wanted to slide under the table and melt into the floor. Was this real life? Was I being forced to quote my own tortured prose like a trained parrot? “Um.” My voice cracked. “Yes, that… that does sound like something I wrote.” “It is!” another boy shouted. “Page two seventy-three, right after the betrayal scene! I highlighted it!”

Idara was touched by Matthew's speech, and the fact that he paused and locked gazes with her wasn't helping her emotions at all. “An English poet once wrote, ‘To err is human; to forgive, divine.’” Matthew quoted, his lips somewhat heavy. “Furthermore, the Bible also says, ‘For all have sinned and come short of the glory of God.’ Romans chapter three, verse twenty-three,” he added. “In addition to that, there are two Bible verses I love so much, which are, ‘For if you forgive other people when they sin against you, your Heavenly Father will also forgive you. But if you do not forgive others their sins, your Father will not forgive your sins.’ Matthew six, verse fourteen and fifteen.”

In the cause of the search, she messaged two suspects one of whom wasn't him at all from obscene replies and the other who still hadn't replied her mediocre 'hi'. She blocked suspect A in a fraction of a second and waited on suspect B. Not much information about him besides a scripture: John 3:16. If she wasn't wrong on her Bible studies and didn't want to disgrace a church elder and choir mistress who was none other than her mother, the scripture as she recalled, said: FOR GOD SO LOVED THE WORLD THAT HE GAVE HIS ONLY BEGOTTEN SON, THAT WHOSOEVER BELIEVETH IN HIM SHALL NOT PERISH, BUT HAVE EVERLASTING LIFE. At least he seemed more decent than suspect A.

What I don't know can't hurt me. My Mind was brought back by the Scripture that Queen was asked to read, "Rescue me, O lord, from liars and from all deceitful people. O deceptive tongue, what will God do to you? How will he increase your punishment? You will be pierced with sharp arrows and burned with glowing coals." "Go to verse six and seven" The pastor interrupted. "I am tired of living among people who hate peace. I search for peace; but when I speak of peace, they want war!" Queen concluded.

it was amazing! Every now and then friendly girls came up and said hello, and all kinds of people came up to talk to me and mom.Good times.Even after almost fifteen years,the atmosphere is still friendly.

But as the Scripture reminds us, "And if I donate all my goods to feed the poor, and if I give my body in order to boast but do not have

"Then he quoted Exodus 22:18. You shall not permit a sorceress to live." "Interesting." Fiona frowned. "That's some pretty outdated verbiage he used. And he knew you guys were onboard helping us. Anything else?" "He spoke a word in another language I didn't understand. Something about the brethren of whatever raining fire to smite sinners."

Sissy eagerly reached for Emma’s hand and whispered in Celina’s ear, “I’ll be her teacher today. Don’t worry.” And she didn’t. Celina trusted Sissy, and it spoke volumes that Sissy had been observant enough to know Celina might not be comfortable parting with Emma in a strange place. The pastor stood before the microphone at the podium and began his message. Celina listened intently as he read the scripture, and his voice rose in volume as he read 1 John 4:18 – 19. “There is no fear in love, but perfect love casts out fear. For fear has to do with punishment, and whoever fears has not been perfected in love. We love because He first loved us.”

Not the gentle, contemplative kind but the kind where spirit and soul wrestle beneath the weight of divine interruption. “God, what is this?” he cried. “Why me? Why now?” No voice answered audibly this time. But a scripture formed clearly in his mind: “Then the Lord put forth His hand, and touched my mouth.

A message from an unknown number.
