Day Thirty-Two.
Verses: "'Hear my cry, O God; listen to my prayer. From the ends of the earth I call to you, I call as my heart grows faint; lead me to the rock that is higher than I. For you have been my refuge, a strong tower against the foe. I long to dwell in your tent forever and take refuge in the shelter of your wings.'"
Psalm 61:1-4
Hey everyone. I am so sorry I haven't posted this past week. I know Easter is this weekend but honestly I got some pretty bad news from the doctor that has made me feel really down. On Friday of last week I saw another doctor, they diagnosed me rheumatoid arthritis, and they won't treat me. That means I have been to six doctors who diagnosed me but won't treat me. I feel pretty defeated. I don't know what to do next. I am still in so much pain and getting diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis is like a kick in the stomach. I do now that now more than ever, I need God to take refuge in.
Maybe right now, you are really struggling. Maybe you have been diagnosed with an illness and like me, you just don't know what to do next. What I do know is: no matter what you are struggling with you can always go and take refuge in God.
Remember that God is always with you and will help you. He loves you so much and just wants to be there for you.
"The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit."
Psalm 34:18
If you are broken-hearted, God will help you. If you are crushing in spirit, God will save you. If you are depressed, God will give you hope. If you need safety, God will give you refuge.

No matter what you are facing: you can always come running into God's arms. God will rejoice in you coming home to Him. God will give you everything you could ever need. All you have to do, is run to Him.
He is waiting there for you. He can't wait to see you.
Prayer:
Dear God,
I am really struggling and I need your help. I am coming home and I am running into your arms. Please grab my hand and be close to me. Please bless me with your peace, rest, hope, love, guidance, grace, and everything I need. Just wrap me in your arms Lord. I want to be close to you.
I thank you for all my many blessings and for Your Son.
In Jesus's name, I pray, Amen!

The Wolves
This is not the Earth that you and I know. This Earth is in an alternate reality, where different rules apply. Most of the events that happened on our Earth happened on this Earth as well, though caused by different things. You see, this Earth has levels, magic and dungeons. Adventuring into these dungeons is a way of life for a lot of people. Jonathan just turned 18, which means he is eligible to become an adventurer. Follow Jonathan and his friends as they begin their journey.
8 118Balancing of the world
Just as humanity reached the height of its power, it fell again. Mana was introduced into a previously balanced world, sending everything present into chaos. Humanity losing its technological advantages, fell back to the dark ages, back to when survival was all but guaranteed. Mana though useful for enhancing the body isn’t unlimited, and humanity fell behind fast. From experiments, a being of mana, born into this chaotic world. The first of its kind. Rather than thriving in a world to which it belongs, it has to model the world so it will suit its needs. As a lone being, it has to use its power over mana to influence beasts and humans alike to abide by its will and further its goals. It will manipulate intelligent lifeforms to do its bidding while believing that they are becoming stronger. It will help lower lifeforms and guide their lives until they fit into the world as envisioned by our being. Read how our protagonist starts in a small area, changing it to suit its needs, and then grows until the world is balanced and at peace again. This is my first story, and I don’t have an editor yet. My English should be good enough, but I expect to have to go back and do editing later on. I would classify this story as litRPG. There will be a type of system with blue boxes and all, though the perspective is the system itself and how it came to be and why it does what it does. As a single mighty being, there will be dungeon core influences such as expanding the area and influencing all within though there is no such thing as an actual dungeon. As humanity is trying to survive, there will also be some city/base building influences, and I will have some perspective changes to show how the forces are being perceived by the affected people. As I have a busy job, it will be hard to update consistently, but I am quite a bit ahead of what I have currently uploaded.
8 164Rise Of The New King.
In a time where the feudal system was the most stable kind of government, it is hard to advance one's lot in life. Most people were born a peasant and live their entire life as one. Without willing to risk everything, one cannot advance in this kind of society. Watch as one young man takes every opportunity before him. Watch as he grows into a man. Watch as he learns what his dream is. Watch as he takes hold with tooth and claw. Watch as he does the near impossible. Diablo is a child named after a demon. He is uneducated in both numbers and writing. Yet, instead of simply living the life he is dealt, he takes opportunity by the hand and is lifted up higher than he ever thought he could go. Adventurer, Soldier, Mercenary, Slave, Robber Barron, King. He is all of these and much more.

Sometimes my voice dies in my throat, buries itself beneath waves of crippling suffocation, burns itself out as cold hands tear at my laced skin. I have smiled while my eyes have cried and pleaded, my wrists numb, my lips wobbling and blue, and stars escaping this dark night that I'm trapped in. I long for a darkness that gives way to light. But I do feel the warmth of petals gathering and scattering in my cold bones, and imagine the touch and the sweetness of a kiss, and my heart rises to the surface of this sea and finds a sky painted by passing artists remaining far above our heads. I'm breathing out all the words I've kept locked under the pages of my breaking mind. And by doing so, I'm going to heal.TRIGGER WARNINGS: depression, anxiety, self harm, suicidal thoughts, OCD, panic attacks
