Book excerpt: I lived most of my life chasing after love, acceptance, and trying to fit in so that I could be just like everyone else. Only recently and only by God's grace am I finally starting to see that the goal of this gift of life we have been given is not to fit in and be like everyone else. We were all made with our extraordinary piece of God to share and celebrate our differences and uniqueness...I'm starting to sense this chase is going to lead me to touch stars I never dreamed of seeing face to face. Are you feeling overwhelmed and struggling to find your purpose? Are you tired of chasing after the wind? Have you been looking for love and approval and finding heartache and loneliness instead? In this candid book, Barbara shares how she has chased after love and acceptance for most of her life. When those needs weren't being fully met, she sought the approval of teachers and church members and the attention of the opposite sex to fill the void in her life. She tried to fill the God-shaped hole in her heart with relationships that could never completely satisfy. When she came to the end of herself, Barbara finally found what she'd been looking for. With utter joy, she ran headlong into the arms of her Heart Protector, her Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, and realized He was pursuing her all along. Join Barbara on this enthralling journey and you'll find yourself asking, 'Will I ever find what I'm looking for on My Chase?'

Download or read book Idly Scribbling Rhymers written by Robert Tuck and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2018-07-10 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How can literary forms fashion a nation? Though genres such as the novel and newspaper have been credited with shaping a national imagination and a sense of community, during the rapid modernization of the Meiji period, Japanese intellectuals took a striking—but often overlooked—interest in poetry’s ties to national character. In Idly Scribbling Rhymers, Robert Tuck offers a groundbreaking study of the connections among traditional poetic genres, print media, and visions of national community in late nineteenth-century Japan that reveals the fissures within the process of imagining the nation. Structured around the work of the poet and critic Masaoka Shiki, Idly Scribbling Rhymers considers how poetic genres were read, written, and discussed within the emergent worlds of the newspaper and literary periodical in Meiji Japan. Tuck details attempts to cast each of the three traditional poetic genres of haiku, kanshi, and waka as Japan’s national poetry. He analyzes the nature and boundaries of the concepts of national poetic community that were meant to accompany literary production, showing that Japan’s visions of community were defined by processes of hierarchy and exclusion and deeply divided along lines of social class, gender, and political affiliation. A comprehensive study of nineteenth-century Japanese poetics and print culture, Idly Scribbling Rhymers reveals poetry’s surprising yet fundamental role in emerging forms of media and national consciousness.
Download or read book Making Her A Mackay written by Kara Griffin and published by Kara Griffin. This book was released on 2023-09-26 with total page 351 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Grady Mackay puts his clan in great peril when he breaks a betrothal agreement without his laird’s permission. Now, the lass’s guardian expects an immediate wedding. He must marry Marren Macleod to avert a war, but Marren recently married his comrade, Keith Sutherland. He proposes marriage to Laurel Malone, a woman who recently arrived in the north, to stand in as Marren. Grady is baffled by Laurel’s evasiveness. She reveals little of herself, but as her secrets unravel, he admits a desire for her that he’s unwilling to refute. Laurel fled her home with her nephew and niece in tow. Having no means, she accepts the proposal Grady Mackay offers. She’s always had an affinity for pretense, so becoming someone else is exactly what she needs to stay in the shadows. She doesn’t want to be attracted to Grady or to find him compassionate, but he’s everything a woman wants in a husband, protector, and more. Their hearts are connected by unforgivable circumstances, and their experiences lead them to love and understanding and to have the compassion to always be accepting of each other. Grady has never loved anyone, but Laurel tugs at his heart and shows him that love is something to hold on to. Where there is love, there is no fear. With all that Grady faces, he needs to win over his clan, a difficult task since he proclaimed never to set foot on Mackay land again. To thwart the possibility of two wars, Grady must make Laurel a Mackay in every way or risk losing everything he’s ever desired.
