Book excerpt: A simple, soul-nourishing practice for engaging with God in the middle minutes of your day. None of us signed up for a conventional experience with the unconventional God, yet too often the spiritual life can become routine, or dare we say it, even boring. For anyone who longs to experience God in the thick of life's demands, Sara Hagerty's Adore gives us all permission to admit "I barely know You, God." This honest admission is the first step closer to this familiar stranger. You’ll learn the simple practice of adoration—of starting where you are, and letting the grit of your day greet the beauty of God's presence. Adoration is for the off moments and middle minutes. It's there for you when you feel rushed 7:37 a.m. It's there when you feel over-crowded by your kids or coworkers at 12:17 p.m. It's there when you feel stuck and frustrated at 5:53 p.m. Adoration is the place where we put how we feel in front of God's Word, and watch what happens to our insides. It's what you were made for. Join Sara in this soul-stirring journey through thirty attributes of God that will help you hone the habit of adoration and see God with fresh eyes. Experience a new way of engaging with God in your everyday. Adore will show you how. "The nearness and tenderness of God will be so real to you as you read this book. Sara builds words in such a way it feels like God is so near as you read them." –Jennie Allen, author and founder of IF:Gathering

A searing psychological thriller of trauma, dark academia, complicity, and revenge, Dark Things I Adore unravels the realities behind campfire legends—the horrors that happen in the dark, the girls who become cautionary tales, and the guilty who go unpunished. Until now. "A smart, nuanced exploration of victims and villains, inspiration and theft, and the intersection of these things, in every artist. Pay attention to Katie Lattari.

Asking him for his help and guidance in all your affairs is imperative. God speaks to us in scripture and in our daily quiet time with him. Therefore, it is important to read His Word and to meditate on it daily. If you have behaviors that keep you back, that keep you from being pleasing to God, that keep you stuck, I think that they are considered addictions. It is time to deal with them. Find a counselor, a support group, trusted friend, or pastor and begin to heal in this area. It is important to get eight hours of sleep daily and to make it a priority, as this also repairs the body, mind, and heart. Make time for exercise, even if it is only thirty minutes a day. A quick walk on your lunch break or before dinner. It does not have to be complicated. Keep your tennis shoes with you, and just do it. Keep a water bottle with you always and make sure that you are drinking enough clean water each day, at least sixty-four ounces daily. Finally, I know your mother told you to eat your vegetables; now I am telling you. fruits and vegetables are of the earth, God creating them as medicine for us. Enjoy them, they are life.

Download or read book Adore Lament written by Francisco A. Ojeda and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2017-02-03 with total page 57 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a collection of statements, rhymes, and even a prayer that I have developed over the years. Many of these were from deep feelings and hard experiences, and some were simply what interested me at the moment. It could be primarily said that both love and pain were the most influential emotions in my life, thus the title of this book. Each one had a place in my life, whether to describe joy and happiness or sadness and regret. Being in combat, like that in Iraq in 2006 and 2007, allowed for recollection and remembrance of my life, past and present. This book is a reflection of how the mind of a fifty-year-old sees the world after so many experiences, relationships, wonders, and disappointments.

Download or read book Mine to Adore written by Kameron Claire and published by Snuggle Whore Press, LLC. This book was released on 2023-11-28 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What happens when the search & rescue veteran and his K9 get trapped in a remote mountain chalet with a gorgeous older woman during a freak winter storm? My first time on a ski slope in twenty years, I overestimated my abilities and got lost in a blizzard that hit the mountaintop faster than anyone expected. Trapped in the trees with a twisted knee and zero visibility, I’m quickly losing consciousness when an insistent wet nose and a pair of strong arms save me. Now I’m in a mountain cabin in front of a roaring fire and a muscle bound shirtless man who insists on getting me naked. Too bad it’s merely to save me from hypothermia and nothing else. Or is it? Lincoln Abrams is the sexiest man to ever put his hands on me. Even though he’s barely a few years older than my daughter, our age difference doesn’t deter him in seducing me at all. Charmingly sweet, supremely confident, and intent on adoring every inch of me, he is out of a romance novel (or maybe a porn), but either way, I grab hold of this opportunity with both hands and let him show me pleasure I didn’t know my body was capable of. Literally. When the question of his manwhoring past is brought to the forefront, I have to remind myself that this is nothing more than one amazing night born of proximity, anxiety, and convenience. I can’t expect a relationship with a man fifteen years my junior who lives in another state, and any fanciful dreams I had last night in the throes of orgasmic ecstasy must be forgotten. Linc doesn’t agree and refuses to let me ghost him, promising if I do, he’ll find and give me the spankings I desperately need. He says I’m his to adore, and he’s never letting me go. After one night off the mountain in Spring City, I might believe him. !! Formerly titled Snowed in with Search & Rescue !!
