Share in the intimate moments of a family that loves and sacrifices for each other and then extends that love to encompass the world. ~*~ God sees that much of his creation has withered and died. His last hope is that Earth can be saved and is perhaps all that can be salvaged. He sets upon a plan in which he sends seeds to Earth that are mankind's hope for survival. He sends an archangel to assist the four seeds, the three generations of the Lancaster family. The Lancaster's are unaware of their celestial powers or that they are "seeds" with a godly mission. They go about their lives believing they are ordinary American citizens in a modern day world. Each Lancaster experiences life quite differently and it is only with age, that each begins to understand their unique relationship with a higher power. The stories of self-discovery show the struggles that each encounter as they make their way in a world that is challenging them at every turn.

Raymond Lancaster's archeologist father disappeared when he was a child and his mother now gone found himself alone in an indifferent world. From impoverished beginnings he propelled himself to modest wealth building RL Enterprises into an international conglomerate. He lived peacefully, blissfully with his loving wife Susan, his college sweetheart, and his son and daughter never anticipating that everything would come crashing to an abrupt end.... ~*~ Paperback/ Large Print/ and eBook editions are available at Createspace and Amazon.com

Download or read book God Plants Seeds written by Anna Hartt and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2020-05-20 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: God Plants Seeds is about realizing we all have a purpose on this earth, ordained by God before our births. He fills the hour glass of our lives with time and love; what we do with these gifts determines what we harvest from the fields of our lives, the ubuntu. We are obligated to love one another, to understand the adage, "I am because we are." Loving one person creates ripple effects throughout the world; loving the whole world is our gift of gratitude to God for all He has done for us. Only when we become "Christ with flesh on" will we accomplish God's plan for our lives. Listening for the tolling of a steeple bell from an old country church as evening comes, we hear Christ calling to us to come home. One tiny light, your light, can help heal the world's darkness. With God's love and grace, our children will harvest His peace through the seeds of character and talents that He has planted in all of us. As our Eternal Father, God directs our plans. Without Him, we are nothing; with Him, we can be our very best as leaders of the world.

Download or read book Rush of Heaven written by Ema McKinley and published by HarperChristian + ORM. This book was released on 2014-10-21 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Ema, give me your hand." These were the words Jesus spoke to Ema on Christmas Eve--the night He straightened her crooked foot, hand, neck, and spine, and restored her mobility. Easter weekend, eighteen years earlier, an ordinary workday turned into a nightmare when Ema McKinley passed out and was left hanging upside down in the storage room. Rather than improving, Ema's body became progressively bent and disfigured. Doctors diagnosed Ema with reflex sympathetic dystrophy (RSD), an extremely painful trauma-induced disease which led to Ema's hand and foot deformities, painful sores, insomnia, gastrological distress, curvature of the neck and spine, heart and lung failure, and permanent confinement to a wheelchair. Once an athletic, powerhouse woman with multiple jobs and volunteer positions, Ema became a modern-day Job who lost everything except her faith and desire to trust God more fully. Ema wrestled with pain, anger, and unforgiveness, but now takes the reader on a healing miracle encounter of Biblical proportions. Rush of Heaven will ignite readers' passion for Jesus and help them walk hand-in-hand with Him through life's darkness. It will open hearts to embrace the impossible. "Jesus gave me this miracle for you too!" -- Ema McKinley

It backfires Hister succeeds in destroying his enemies but in the process destroys himself, Atlantis and World civilization. Seraphis, while rushing on his Flying Platen to the Crystal City in an attempt to prevent Hister from destroying the world... is too late... the Anti-gravity network fails and Seraphis falls 10,000 feet out of the sky to his death.
