《Walking With Jesus A Daily Devotional》Day Four

Day Four.
Verse:
"But the Lord has become my fortress, and my God the rock in whom I take refuge." Psalm 94:22 NIV
Is God your refuge?
When bad things happen: do you run to God, or run away from God?
For the longest time, I was on the run from God. I was depressed, suicidal, calling myself an atheist, hating God, cursing God, and making some bad decisions. Once I started being homeschooled and started going to church, I began building a good relationship with God. I had to come clean with God and start living for God. But for the longest time, when bad things would happen to me, I would run away from God.
Now after many years of building a good relationship with God, going to therapy, facing my past, getting on good medicine for my bipolar, and with all Glory to God. I am finally seeking God and running to God despite my circumstances. Because right now I am struggling with pain: physically and mentally. I know I can't do life without God. So I am running to Him.
I don't know what you are going through or what you have been through, but I do know that God wants you to take refuge in Him. He wants to help you and be there for you. He knows life is rough. He doesn't want you running away from Him when things get bad, instead He wants you running to Him.
I know it's easy to run away from God because I have done it so many times. But now that I know what to God is like, I won't ever run away from God again. Because I need Him and I can't do life without Him.
The old saying goes: "God won't give you more than you can handle." I don't believe that. I believe God does give us more than we can handle so we will go running into His arms and take refuge in Him.

You don't have to go through life on your own. You have God who is waiting for you! He's not mad at you because He loves you more than you can ever imagine. He just wants you to come home.
So come home to God! He is waiting for you and can't wait to be there for you!
Prayer:
Dear God,
I am coming home to you. I am tired of running away from you. I just want to be close with you. So please wrap your amazing arms around me and help me. I can't do life without you. I need you God. Please fill me with your love, grace, and forgiveness.
I thank you for all my many blessing, for Your Son, Your love, Your grace, Your forgiveness, and for You Lord.
In Jesus's name, I pray, Amen!

Out of Foxes to Give
When you’re reincarnated as Naruto Uzumaki you do one of two things: cheer because you remember the story and are able to abuse your future knowledge, or realize that you’re in a world where they train child soldiers who throw fireballs and explosions around like candy and reasonably freak out. In a sense you’re either screwed or screwed but you know why. I didn’t really read Naruto when I was a kid. However, had I known that it would be useful in death, I would have! And I’m certainly regretting it now! ———————————— A definite AU for Naruto. I’m going to remove some parts and add some others for the sake of plot holes(so if something doesn't seem quite right it's probably intended... maybe), but I’ll try to stick to as close to how the Naruto-verse works. Also, say goodbye to canon! Also, disclaimer, I do not own Naruto as that belongs solely to Kishimoto. I do, however, own this story.

Dragonfall
This fiction is based on a short story I wrote inspired by a prompt on r/WritingPrompts. Contrary to my plans, I haven't sketched out the story in detail or written anything ahead of time. I've discovered I don't do well at that. I'm just writing this thing and we'll see where it takes us, OK? Nothing every came easy to Ryan Shakespeare, but as an elite British Army sniper he had found a niche that suited him, right up to the point at which he found himself summoned to a world far from his own to fulfil the job of a champion. Luckily, Ryan arrived with his experimental sniper rifle, so surely killing the dragon and getting his chance to go home would be a simple job, right? But Ryan should have known better, because nothing ever comes easy. Caught up in the politics of the Draconic League, Ryan will need to keep all his wits about him and use every resource at his disposal if he's going to persuade these people to let him do his job and go home.

The Swarm
The Swarm – a world spanning empire – feared by everything and everyone. Endless glory and food to all! No sickness, no poverty, no depression and no allies. Truly, the perfection of life! However, nothing lasts forever; not even the Swarm... The cowardly major races teamed up in an unprecedented alliance to fight the Swarm, but even that was not enough. What brought true doom to the Swarm came from the inside: a high-ranking General’s betrayal! An action that was more shocking than all the other races putting their differences aside and joining together. The Swarm’s strength came from their unity and this shook them to the core. The various Kings and Queens led their armies separately as a result, nullifying their greatest advantage – numbers! Only when the war was all but lost, did the Swarm finally reunite again for one last stand. Afterwards, only one Queen survived, and she would do anything to restore the Swarm to its former glory – even asking one of those 'Gods' for help. To reform the Swarm, a new leader must arise. No, not just any leader – the Emperor must return!---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Other stories by me: World of Conquest: http://www.royalroadl.com/fiction/1513Slime Hero Saga: http://www.royalroadl.com/fiction/1415Hunter, Adam Hunter.
