Download or read book Father Luigi s Chameleon written by Tara Isabella Burton and published by Iuniverse Inc. This book was released on 2003-04-01 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The priests were faithless, the damned were blessed, the ironies were many, and the comforts were few. The brides were reluctant, the rejected were loved, the idols were demons, and the pitied were strong. - Father Luigi's Chameleon Tara Burton's remarkable first novel, Father Luigi's Chameleon, follows six characters as they face internal struggles during one fateful summer in Italy. The novel, in which this extraordinary eleven-year-old writer explores questions of ethics, values and the nature of love, as well as her unique view of God and the afterlife, was inspired by the often-conflicting philosophies of life she observed growing up in Rome, Paris and New York. Although written by a child, it is not a children's book! Father Luigi s Chameleon is the story of six friends, all living in Rome in the summer of 2002, who retreat to a small island off the coast of Naples in order to come to terms with their own personal demons that are preventing them from achieving happiness. At the root of this, watching over them, is Father Luigi's pet chameleon, Monsieur Amore, who turns out to be more than just a simple reptile in this captivating and thought-provoking modern parable.

Download or read book He Gave Me My True Identity and the Wisdom to Exit My Own Maze written by Mattie Griffin and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2024-01-17 with total page 195 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Through my trials and tribulations, God gave me my identity. I hindered my walk and relationship with God by leaning on my own understanding. Although, as a child, the pain I endured was out of my control, as an adult, the majority was based on the choices I made and the signs I willingly ignored for decades. I blamed others for my lack of love. I was miscomprehending, seeking love from individuals that only comes from God, the Creator. It was my iniquity; it caused the separation between God and me, which hindered my blessings from him. It was also God's grace that helped with the brokenness that crippled and tormented me throughout my life. He rescued me by transforming my circumstances into the center blocks I needed to climb out of the hole I was buried in. My foolishness caused me to make lifelong decisions based on temporary issues. He should have been my ultimate choice. When I was tested, my afflictions bent and twisted the vessels attached to my heart, but God didn't allow me to flatline. He was the guiding force I needed when I thought I was too broken to be repaired. He rebuilt and molded me to be used for his glory. God's love, through my tests and trials, matured and strengthened me. The things sent to destroy my peace were no competition to the mind-regulating God I serve! This book was written in inspiration to my God, Lord, and Savior, Jesus Christ. He deserves all the praise and honor, and without Him, it wouldn't be me. The blueprint and directions of God's Word are the recipes to all salvation. Above all, I pray that you, too, will understand the importance of obedience and the relationship God desires us to have as we're reconciled with Him.

Getting started was hard, but I thought of it like a striptease as in, the first sentence ought to make you feel compelled to read the next and so on, so much so that when you finish the first page, you ought to feel like nothing short of a house on fire will stop you from turning to the second page and so on. However, once I managed to start, I found it difficult to stop. I was carried away, and I kept amending and could not let go or leave the words alone. Like a roller coaster, life has many ups and downs; however, with true pain and inner strength through travelling the journey, you must remain determined to move towards the light on this roller coaster of life that never stops. So I take you through my journey of that roller-coaster life, moving from the dark with the Sloth, to the retreat with my Rock Bunny, through my soul with the Tiger, to a date and a night with a band and a bunch of flowers, even though I may be referred to as old, fat, and ugly. Then you will see my move across fear with the Hyena, my visit with the Parasite, and finally, at last, my transition towards the light with my Meerkat. Once there at the end of my journey, I reflect upon myself and my own presence and being, and then I move on to question myself. What am I? Am I the Chameleon, the Black Panther, or just your regular everyday Swan, whos a little larger than most birds?
