Day One Hundred and Sixty
Verse: "'We have this as a sure and steadfast anchor of the soul, a hope that enters into the inner place behind the curtain.'"
Hebrews 6:19
Let Jesus be your hope this Christmas season.
This year has been weird to say the least. It's been really hard for everyone. With COVID still going strong, this Christmas season is totally different this year. Even though this year is weird, we can still put our hope in Jesus and have an amazing Christmas season.
How do you put your hope in Jesus?
1. Seek God daily by: reading your Bible daily, and praying to God daily.
I know that the Christmas season is usually very busy. But we can't let: "being busy" stop us from spending time with God. Why should you seek God daily? Because as you seek God, He will draw near to you (Psalm 125:1-2). I know I love spending time with God and that's what God wants. You don't have to spend hours with Him. Just sit down with a cup of coffee, read your Bible, and pray to God everyday. I promise you, you won't be disappointed. Having a close relationship with God is the best relationship you can ever have. Because no one on this earth loves you more than how much God loves you (Psalm 136:1)
2. Put your hope in God and not circumstances or anything else other than God. Put your hope in God.
With hope, you can't find your hope in worldly things like people and circumstances. Because people and circumstances change just like the seasons of weather. We need someone who is never changing. We need to anchor our hope in God. God: who is trustworthy (Deuteronomy 7:9), faithful (Hebrews 13:5) , good (Psalm 31:19) , loving (Psalm 136:1), and never changing (Hebrews 13:8), and so much more. How do you put your hope in God? You surrender your life to Jesus

3. Surrender your life to God.
How to do this is to say: "God, I am surrendering my life to you. I put my faith, hope, and joy in you. I pray that you bless with everything I need. But God, I give my life to you." You surrender yourself to God by giving God EVERYTHING: your doubts, fears, anxiety, problems, your health, your job, and give God your heart. God will be there to help you (Psalm 121:1-2) and He will bless you with whatever you need (Isaiah 49:13).
Prayer:
Dear God,
I pray that as I seek you daily, as I put my hope in you and not my circumstances, and as I surrender everything to you, I pray you be with me and help me. Help me fix my eyes on you and not my circumstances. I pray you bless me with your hope, peace, and joy. I know that you hear me and you will help me. I praise you because you are so good to me. I praise you for your goodness, love, and mercy.
I thank you for all my many blessings and for Your Son.
In Jesus's name, I pray, Amen!

The Last Death Mage
Since time immemorial humanity has always feared and shunned what it didn’t understand. Over time this changed a bit to encompass things that didn’t conform to their thoughts and ideals. Due to humanity’s stubbornness with which the enforced their ideals many lives were lost and changed. When humanity first clashed with monsters and the beings that use magic, this trait caused many bloody fights. Over time the fights escalated into battles and full on war on several occasions. Humanity due to their adaptability and persistence won many of these altercations, causing huge casualties to the magical beings. Humanity did not come out unscathed however; many of the empires and civilizations noted in human history fell due to these battles and wars. Eventually over time humanity and the magical beings came to a sort of agreement. Magic and the beings associated with it faded into the background of history, being relegated to myth and legend. Humanity meanwhile advanced leaps and bounds once magic faded, leading to our current level of civilization. Not all magical beings were content with this, thus they did their own actions and killed or fed on humans. This has led to many organizations to be formed concerning this, on both the side of humanity and the side of magical beings. They regulate and control the use of magic as well as protect humanity from the darker things that are now not but myth to them, but there is a reason humanity instinctually fears the dark. Unfortunately there are always those that are unsatisfied by the status quo, and those that are prejudiced against things that are different. This is a story of a young man who wanted nothing more than to be normal. Unfortunately Fate and the world he lives in do not easily allow that this, thus his life changed, not for the better. Everyone has heard of or read stories about monsters and legends, heroes and villains, this is one such story. Hi, this is my second attempt at a story here, the first was before the major overhaul happened and i lost everything related to that story due to PC troubles. I hope you enjoy this if you dont please leave some constructive criticism in the comments. An Editor and the like will be needed, but I will edit as problems are pointed out and as i proof read. This story will have no set schedule, unless of course I decide to type up a bunch in succession then i will note that in a chapter beforehand. ADDED NOTE: most sexual content will be in Interludes or sub chapters with a .5 attached. Profanity and gore however shall be plenty in the actual story, though the descriptives for the gore may be added later. (For example, in the prologue that gave a hint at what happened to the MC, will be enhanced so that the gore invokes more descriptive/complete mental pictures, though it may wait.) ~Tyroth Gideon
