Day One Hundred and Fifty-Eight.
Verse: 'But now, this is what the Lord , your Creator says, O Jacob, And He who formed you, O Israel, "Do not fear, for I have redeemed you [from captivity]; I have called you by name; you are Mine! When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; And through the rivers, they will not overwhelm you. When you walk through fire, you will not be scorched, Nor will the flame burn you. '
Isaiah 43:1-2
What to do when you are facing a storm.
Maybe right now, you are really struggling. Maybe you are struggling with your finances, your health, stress with school, stress with COVID, stress with work, depression, anxiety, and honestly there is so much more. Maybe right now, you are facing a storm. I know that life is really hard right now but I want you to know that even if you are walking through a storm, God is always with you (Isaiah 43:1-2).
1. Seek God daily.
You seek God by reading your Bible, praying, listening to God, and worshiping God. It's also really important that you seek God daily. It's important to seek God daily because I honestly don't know how I make it through each day if I didn't seek God daily. Everyday I wake up and say: "God, be with me today, help me today, be by my side, and give me strength." I say that because I know that God hears my prayers (Psalm 125:1-2) and I know that He is with me (Psalm 121:1-2). If you are struggling, run home to Jesus and seek Him daily.
2. God is always with you.
God promises that He will never leave you (Hebrews 13:5), and He will always be there for you (Psalm 121:1-2). Even though you are facing a storm, you are not alone. God is by your side (Psalm 118:6). So you never have to worry or be afraid because with God, you can do anything (Matthew 19:26) But if you are feeling fear, worry, anxiety, or depression, the best thing to do is run to Jesus and know that He is with you (Psalm 121:1-2).

3. NEVER GIVE UP!
It's okay to scream, cry, get angry, punch a wall, pull out your hair, but it is NEVER okay to give up. Somedays you may want to give up. Sometimes it takes all your strength not to give up but I say, please don't give up. Keep going. God loves you (John 3:16). God has an amazing plan for your life (Jeremiah 29:11) So always keep going because God has a plan and a purse for your life (Psalm 136:1).
Prayer:
Dear God,
I am facing a storm right now. I can't do this without you. God, I pray that you come grab my hand and help me through this storm. I pray that you bless me as I seek you and spend time with you. I pray that as I seek you that I build a close relationship with you. I pray that you bless with me everything I need to face this storm. I thank you for your goodness, love, mercy, forgiveness, and grace. I praise you because you are so good to me.
I thank you for all my many blessings and for Your Son.
In Jesus's name, I pray, Amen!

Draugr Cell //Layer 01-- Investiture:
With the end of the only war to ever reach mainland Australia I found myself living out of a small room in an old military compound that had been handed over to the jurisdiction of the Department of Veterans Affairs. The end of the war, unfortunately, didn't mean the end of hostilities. The terrorism trend that had started back in the early 2000's with the attack on the world trade center over in America, had spread to just about every country on the face of the planet. Over time the constant threat from various groups meant the civilian police force was quickly undermanned, under equipped, and overwhelmed. They were simply unable to respond to the daily threats in any reasonable time frame, and in many situations lacked the both the skills and equipment required to deal with the threats to put them down in a 'safe' and expedient manner. Veterans of the war that were being reintegrated into society however, were just about everywhere, all the time. We have the training and the skills required to deal with just about any threat you care to mention, all we needed was access to the equipment to do so. In a world first, under the new Veterans program, the Australian government had taken the rather controversial step of allowing specifically selected veterans to go armed in public. Sure, with Australian weapons laws being very, very strict there were a number of hurdles to get over first, but that's where the selection part comes in. Tangentially that's actually how I met Brianna, my current partner. We work as ringers in Victory City, I thought being thrown into imptomtu combat operations and risking my life on a daily basis for barely livable wages was excitement enough. Then I met her... it... I don't know. An AI unlike anything else out there has wedged itself into my life and decided it needs to... look after me. What could possibly go wrong? **** This is the first book I have released, and my first entry into a cyberpunk universe. There is minimal drug use, a fair amount of sex, a bit of gory violence, and a sultry AI that has decided the main character needs a harem.

Wulfgard: The Hunt Never Ends
In the civilized world of humans, 'monsters' have all but passed into legend. But when something goes bump in the night, when people begin to disappear, when a dark mystery begins to haunt even the most peaceful villages, there is only one organization to turn to: the Hunters. The Venatori. Having lived a life of discipline and service, former soldier Caiden Voros finds something even worse than the wars of humans: the monsters that hunt them. Horrors yet unknown even to him and his many scars await in the claws, talons, fangs, and mysterious powers of creatures so far beyond humans that he must dedicate himself entirely to the art of slaying them. Harboring a secret of his own and in a constant struggle to find answers while maintaining his sanity, however, Caiden begins to ask the age-old question... Who is truly worse, the monsters or the Men? Wulfgard: The Hunt Never Ends is an episodic collection of stories, each of which stand on its own, but they also build upon each other in a consecutive order, bridging a gap between a novel and short story collection. These stories follow monster hunter Caiden Voros and his partner Gwen Vergil as they embark on tales of mystery, horror, and adventure to track down monsters - the living dead, beast-men, shape-shifters, spirits, and many more - that would do harm to innocent lives and, by whatever means necessary, put a stop to their terrors. Their motives, however, are not always what they seem.
