Day Twenty-Nine.
Verse: "And hope does not put us to shame, because God's love has been poured out into our hearts through the Holy Spirit, who has been given to us."
Romans 5:5 NIV
I have some really exciting news guys: I finally found a doctor to treat my fibromyalgia! After yesterday's horrible doctor's appointment of another doctor not willing to treat me. My Dad's coworker also has fibromyalgia. So my Dad got the name of the doctor his co-worker sees. I called to make sure they treat fibromyalgia and they do! Tomorrow I finally have a doctor's appointment with a doctor who will treat me! After two years of trying doctor after doctor, I finally found a doctor who will help me!
After yesterday, my parents and I could have given up trying to find me a doctor. But my Mom and Dad didn't give up. Neither will I!
I don't know what you are going through. Maybe you are struggling with a mental illness, chronic illness, cancer, or you lost a loved one. Whatever you are going through: you can't give up! God will grab your hand and give you His hope.
I know throughout my fibromyalgia journey, I have struggled with depression. If you are struggling with depression, remember: depression is A LIAR! With God by your side, you CAN and WILL get better! Because with God's hope, strength, and joy inside of you: you can do anything!
Sometimes God doesn't change our circumstances because He is trying to change our heart. God may not cure you from an illness but He will give you the strength to fight it and win. I saw this quote yesterday it said: "Sometimes God will put you in a battle empty handed so that when you do get the victory you will know it wasn't you but it was God."

God CAN and WILL give you everything you need to declare victory. I know that my Dad's coworker having fibromyalgia isn't luck but God. I believe me find this doctor isn't luck but it is God's plan. I believe me writing this book is one of God's purpose for me. I believe me starting a podcast called Chronically Caty to help others with mental illnesses and chronic illnesses isn't luck but it is God's plan for me.
We have to surrender everything to God and know that He will work everything out for us. When we are facing horrible circumstances or illness, we have to go to God to get everything we need: strength, joy, hope, peace, and rest. God will give us everything we need to overcome anything in our lives. God is bigger, stronger, and mightier than anything we could ever face. When we do get the victory, we need to praise God's name! Because God is good even when life isn't!
So hold on to God's hand. Hold on to God's hope and I believe you will make it through whatever you are facing.
Prayer:
Dear God,
God I am struggling. I am fight a battle that I can't win without you. So please come grab my hand and help me through this battle. I pray you give me anything I need like joy, peace, hope, rest, and strength to win this fight. I pray I win this fight because of you and not because of me. God I know I will win because of you and I will always praise your name. Because God you are good even when life isn't.
I thank you for all my many blessings and for Your Son.
In Jesus's name, I pray, Amen!

ROACH- rising pestilence
A weary mind awakens in an unfamiliar body, lost, confused, scared, and very far from home. He doesn't know where he is, he isn't sure what he may become, and his stomach growls hungrily. But he knows one thing. He must feed and he isn't too bothered on how, only when. Through his struggles to survive trying to take his place in this world. It, the world will be forever changed. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- My first story here so let's do it! hopefully with flying colors. (This story is not about an insect that goes on an edgelord, death rampage, so those who came for that, know now what you are reading and stop rating down thx, still, some murder and mayhem is involved) Feel free to critique, I will be checking on reviews and comments every now and then to see what others think of my writing and how I might adjust it in the future. (although I'm also doing this for fun so don't get your knickers in a twist if things don't change to your liking). (Know that even if you comment/review that doesn't mean I will respond or that I will take your advice, after all, I too have my own preferences). A chapter tends to come out every fortnight, however sometimes it may be sooner or later, It depends on how lazy I'm feeling or how busy I am. Ps. A friend of mine drew the cover art, appreciate its homebrew goodness. PPs. serious readers may want to read the author's notes as well. PPPs. If you rate down please say why, I want info, not merely ratings that don't tell me anything, preferably in comments, so I can try to best satisfy my audience, or at the very least understand their reasons.

After Z
The signs were all there. A mysterious fever spreading in the wake of the pandemic. Increasing incidents of unrest with surprisingly little coverage by the media. Breakdowns in basic services. Nick had thought for years that total social collapse would come in his lifetime – he just never expected that collapse to come from the unquiet dead. As soon as he was sure enough that the potential danger outweighed the awkwardness of admitting that yes, the dead were rising, Nick grabbed his bug out bag and bugged out. It felt, at times, that the zombie movies, comics, and games he’d grown up with had been preparing for this moment. And Nick was right. But also very very wrong. After Z is an apocalyptic occult interactive serial about survivors hiding from the dead in a forest preserve. A new chapter is posted every week, and every week supporters vote on which way the story flows. This story will be added to daily until it's caught up with its current state elsewhere; if you don't want to wait you can read ahead on my blog.

BOOK 1 DONE. THE STORY WILL PICK BACK UP IN THE REWRITE, BUT THIS DRAFT IS COMPLETE. BIG NOTE: This story is currently being rewritten. However, the rewrite has strayed so far from the original that they're hardly the same story anymore.

I would be super appreciative if you did!) When a mystic has reached the peak of their world’s growth, they are able to ascend, leaving it behind in favor of a higher, more potent plane. Since the dawn of existence, ambitious prodigies have pushed the boundary of what seems possible, ascending beyond countless worlds in search of the peak. Hong Tang Kiro… is not one of those geniuses. However, his twin sister just might be. Secluded on a border world and selected for their talent in fire mana, the siblings are unknowing participants of a centuries-long experiment, hosted by a powerful eccentric on the verge of immortality. Follow the twins as they learn of and attempt to escape their predicament, before venturing out into the wider world(s).
