Day Five
Verses: 'Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place, and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace. In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the Lord's people. ' Ephesians 6:13-18
God knew in this world, we would have trouble. God knew about the Devil's ways. God knew about pride, temptation, lust, anger, depression, comparison, jealousy, and so much more. God knew we would battle with these things, which is why He tells us to put on the armor of God.
So in this day and age, you probably don't need a shield, helmet, or a sword. But you still can put on the armor of God.
Caty, how?!
We still have the word of truth, The Bible. So we need to read it, everyday! I know I don't always read my Bible everyday but I should. Because the Bible is the truth we need to base our life off of. When we are struggling with the things of this world (pride, lust, anger, depression, etc.), we need to run to God and open the word of truth aka The Bible. Because when you are reading the Bible, and pray everyday (we need to do that to), we can fight the Devil because we have God in our hearts.

Here is my armor of God: a cup of coffee in my hand, reading my Bible everyday, and praying to God everyday. When I do those things: I feel better, and closer to God.
Your armor of God may be different, and that's okay! Maybe you need to get off social media because you struggle with comparison and jealousy. Maybe you need to stop being friends with toxic people.
God will show you what you need to do once you start reading your Bible everyday and praying to God everyday. Let praying to God everyday and reading your Bible everyday be your armor of God!
With our armor of God on and with God by our side, we can fight any battle and win!❤️
Prayer:
Dear God,
I pray that as I read my Bible everyday and pray everyday that I become closer to you. Help me fight the Devil and win because I have you on my side! Please show me what I need to do like if I need to get off social media. Just guide me Lord. Because with you on my side, I know, I can do anything!
I thank you for all my many blessings and for Your Son.
In Jesus's name, I pray, Amen!

The Core: The First Guest (Book 1 of 3)
Book two starts here: https://www.royalroad.com/fiction/46417/the-core-the-hive-daughter-book-2-of-3 --- Kevin was just a normal 10 year old kid until he saw a woman vanish right before his eyes. This made Kevin just a little bit different. He paid more attention to people now. Little did he know that this little difference would kill him the next time he encountered another alien about to return home. It would tear him apart, cell by cell, until he was unmade. His mind being transported away. So distantly far away there is a race that advanced to the point where they built dyson spheres to house their civilizations. In their continual expansion, they seeded galaxies with pods and connection satellites. Over time they upgraded their dyson spheres into matryoshka brain Cores. Imagine a computer powered by a star. Citizens of Cores no longer age once they upload their minds into the virtual living system of the Core. While they didn’t age, most still choose to cycle through life and death though at a different scale of time compared to our lives. Citizens can visit other planets and live there as if they were on a "vacation". Mercury is Earth’s hub connected to the closest Core and Earth is a remote vacation spot for wealthy citizens. When the main character was 10 he witnessed a citizen returning to the Core. The story continues 10 odd years later when he again witnesses a similar situation unfolding and manages to touch the person returning to the Core. This causes him to be swept up in the transfer as well and for his mind to join as a "Guest" user of the Core. As a Guest he has limited powers, a starting balance of zero cr or Citizen credits, and no idea how he can get home. He is the first human to ever become a Guest of a Core. Where money itself is the highest form of their science. --- Progress update: Progress update: COMPLETE Stories:✦The Core: The First Guest (The Core: Book 1 of 3) ✦The Core: The Hive Daughter (The Core: Book 2 of 3) The Core: The Hive Daughter (Book 2 of 3) | Royal Road Stories in PROGRESS:✦The Core: The Dark Enemy (The Core: Book 3 of 3)PROJECTED Stories and Series: ★The Radiative Zone Series: The Girl with Powers (3 book series) ✶The Convective Zone Series: Into the Game (3 book series) This series is a work in progress.

The King's Dungeon
The world of Praelium is a simple one. Wake up in the morning, get dressed, eat some breakfast, stare at the outside scenery and look at all the wild monstrosities that roam the landscape. Oh, and you can't forget the constant battle. Or the magic. And the guilds. Infact, Praelium really isn't simple. Everything is a constant battle to survive, as even in the most peaceful of cities, someone or something will always be out there, rooting for your demise. And the thing that cheers the most for the immediate dissipation of your frail soul? Dungeons. Areas of landscape that are unusual in every way. Vast deserts the size of planets, oceans of lava, you name it, a Dungeon can have it. But in this story? We aren't talking about any old, run of the mill, "Hurr durr, monster, battle, treasure!" type of Dungeon. We're talking about the Dungeon of a King. That's right, you heard me loud and clear. We're following the Dungeon of a King, and its Master, Basileus, in their conquest to become Praelium's greatest, most hated. Praelium's most revered, most feared. Praelium's most adored, most scored. Praelium's finest Dungeon, the cream of the crop, the Dungeon of Dunegons, and the one that will rise above all!
