Download or read book Beyond Thorns written by Mohineet Kaur Boparai and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2022-08-24 with total page 95 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Beyond Thorns is a poetic avowal of the fringe between the human world and nature. It goes beyond imagination into the realm of perception and existence itself. It is an endearing acceptance of sorrow that is ingrained in the being’s interactions with nature. The poetry in this collection subsumes romantic and philosophical (almost prophetic) undertones, as it comes to grips with lived experiences of love, nature, and God. The poems dive subsurface and head-on into the world that forever evades understanding and attempts to emerge with whiffs of its scent while also with the knowledge that grasping the world is never possible. This book attempts to open the dark room of philosophy by engaging the senses but also by delving into the unconscious recesses of the poetic mind and an inner darkness of being. It is an attempt to see through the thick honey-like darkness of life and float a boat to the other side, into the domains of happiness and love.

Download or read book A Rose from the Thorns written by Barbra Sullivan and published by Word Alive Press. This book was released on 2021-08-31 with total page 468 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Numerous angels assembled before the great throne of God, anxiously waiting their next assignment. All accounted for, God turned their attention to the earth below. He targeted a humble little Salvation Army Church in the remote northern community of Thompson, Manitoba. His eyes probed past the asphalt shingles, plywood roofing, insulation, and the gyprock ceiling to reveal the small congregation, searching for one specific individual. Sitting alone in the front row was a shy seven-year-old girl in a faded second-hand dress, dangling her legs in midair because the chairs were too high for her feet to touch the floor. She was captivated by the wooden cross on the wall because of the story the Captain had just shared about an innocent man named Jesus who had been beaten, whipped, then nailed to a cross to die for the sins of the world. She imagined the great horror He had experienced, for she too had seen and felt much horror in her own short life. She wasn’t aware of the tiny spark of light that lit up her heart, nor of the excitement God felt when He saw it. Suddenly, to the wonder of the angels, God lifted His mighty hand, pointed directly at her, and exclaimed, “There! There she is! I told you about her. See? There she is!” The angels couldn’t understand what God was so excited about, but in His great wisdom He had seen beyond her condition into her future. This child would face many dark events in her life and leap impossible hurdles to run the race that had been set before her. In all her frailty, she would prove to be a determent to Satan’s kingdom and a great warrior for her God. And that was where the angels came in, for their job was to protect her.

After her noble father disowned her, Lady Serena Ravenshaw clawed her way from streetwalker to courtesan to prosperous innkeeper. Now she's feared and respected from one end of London to the other, by the lowest dregs of the city's underworld and the upper echelons of the beau monde, and she'll do anything to keep it that way. When mild-mannered chemist Solomon Hathaway turns up in her office, asking for her help, she immediately recognizes him from one fateful night years before. She's been watching and waiting for him for years-so she can turn the tables and put him in her debt, of course, and not because he looked like an angel and was kind to her when she needed it most. She's determined not to wonder what put that fresh grief in his eyes. But after a betrayal even Serena didn't expect, she must put aside her pride and work with Solomon to stop a ring of French spies and save her beloved inn, her freedom-and England itself.
