Lifetime Of Heartache
Chapter 2, Physical Upheaval, [7] Pages 102, 103
Running out into the night, the alarms instantaneously began to sound off all around me. Soon enough I heard dogs barking in the near distance and guards yelling out frantically trying to contain the situation. I in the meantime was desperately trying to make my way into the cover of the tall golden ripe corn stalks. My tears seemingly never ended with the prospect of a lifetime of heartache before me, and once I was safely hidden from the meddlesome guards. I took a short-lived sigh of relief and kept on running with a thankful heart unto the Lord for my trusty old leather jacket to help keep out the chilly night air. I also noticed as the sights and sounds of the commotion grew fainter into the distance, I began to grow more acquainted with my surroundings. With the skies above overcast and hanging low. I thought it to be the perfect metaphor for my overall gloomy life story.

Brightness Of His Coming
Going From Bad To Worse
Chapter 3, [11] Brightness Of His Coming, Page 104
The sounds of Roaring Thunder from above had shockingly awakened me up right out of a sound sleep. Looking up passed the treetops, lighting began flashing across the night sky. With it came thoughts of this wicked world as it is written in 2nd Thessalonians 2:8, And Then shall that wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming.
