    Dakota Child
    by Linda Ford

    Trapped in a North Dakota blizzard, single mother Vivian Halliday's prayer for herself and her child is answered. Rescue comes in the seemingly terrifying form of Billy Black, the hulk of a man feared by all the townsfolk. Yet in the home he shares with his ailing mother, the handsome, gentle giant warms her baby's bottles and sings sweet lullabies that lull even Vivian to peaceful sleep. When the storm abates and it is safe to leave, will she seek the life that led her back to the village…or stay where she's found an unexpected family for herself and her Dakota child?



    The Maverick's Bride
    by Catherine Palmer

    Her faith takes her across the world and into the path of a most extraordinary man. Freshly arrived in East Africa, Emma Pickering is instantly drawn to Adam King. The rugged cowboy is as compelling as he is mysterious. And if he'll agree to a marriage of convenience, it would solve both their problems. Emma could secure her inheritance—and with it, her chance to find her sister. Adam could gain the funds needed to carve his ranch out of the savanna. Yet their match is anything but "convenient" when Emma's fears gain hold, and malicious whispers threaten to tear the couple apart. Only their love and shared faith can save their life together.

    The Christmas Journey
    by Winnie Griggs

    Philadelphia lawyer Ryland Lassiter is everything Josephine Wylie wants—for a brother-in-law! As the sole supporter of her family, Josie's plans for herself have always had to wait. But Ryland will be ideal as the new head of the Wylie clan…once he finally realizes how perfect he is for Josie's sister. Ry knows it's time to settle down. The newly appointed guardian to a friend's daughter, he's ready for a home and family. All he needs is a bride…and Josie's sister is not the Wylie who has caught his eye. If only Josie would see the truth—that the only Christmas present he needs is her love.



    An Unexpected Suitor
    by Anna Schmidt

    After years of caring for others, Nola Burns is ready for her own dream—running a Nantucket tearoom. And it will take more than charm for dashing entrepreneur Harrison Starbuck to buy her out. After all, what proper lady could trust a man who thinks the theater is a suitable venue for God's word? All Harry offers is a business proposition. So why should it bother him when Nola receives threatening notes? He has no reason to be concerned for the vivid, spirited woman…does he? Yet as the threats escalate, Harry's plans shift. Now this unexpected suitor only wants to keep Nola safe—and cherished—for a lifetime.

The Gladiator
by Carla Capshaw

He won his fame—and his freedom—in the gory pits of Rome's Colosseum. Yet the greatest challenge for once-legendary gladiator Caros Viriathos comes to him through a slave. His slave, the beautiful and mysterious Pelonia Valeria. Her secret brings danger to his household but offers Caros a love like he's never known…. Should anyone learn she is a Christian, Pelonia will be executed. Her faith threatens not only herself, but her master. Can she convince a man who found fame through unforgiving brutality to show mercy? And when she's ultimately given the choice, will Pelonia choose freedom or the love of a gladiator?



Gingham Bride
by Jillian Hart


Fiona O'Rourke doesn't believe in love—and certainly not in a marriage arranged by her cruel father. And even if her unexpected betrothed seems honorable and kind, can she trust his motives…or the attraction between them?
Ian McPherson came to Montana to salvage his family's dwindling fortune, not to take a wife. But he's instantly drawn to Fiona. He wants to protect her—even if that means pretending that they're engaged. In a season of surprises and miracles, there's nothing he won't give to show Fiona his love is for always.

    OUR EXHIBITS NEW BIRTHING PROCEDURE

     Embryo exchange surgery is a non medical and medical procedure that helps the abortion level from rising . This procedure is used to exchanged where the embrial is being developed or born . Changing the birth mothers in the starting months of the birthing process. Used for decades by Kings and many other historic , religious , or iconic figures . Non medical surgery has been the most successful way of administrating this procedure . Developed with the same tools used to make medical science (The Equilibrium or Wishing Well) Micheal Jackson used this tool in his development of ethnic transformation surgery . This practice has been used mainly by King George V & IV also known as Yusef Ali or Kevin Lee . As many of his Kids were hidden from him by their birth mothers some made socially uncomfortable to talk about , others lived a lie leaving some kids father less . F.B.I. and the Federal Government for years couldn't explain this process and help the cover up , causing the 80's Baby syndrome . In the 1940's the F.B.I , Feds and C.I.A. found many documents of King George after his death in the 1930's without a proper investigation they turned over world power sources to the false family of King George . Because they didn't understand what these instruments can produce or the fact that King George was tranquilized to a child in 1952 they caused the world harm misplacing family's, mixing kids , sending children with unworthy mothers and expanding the homesexuailty population in the world today . Many celebrity's have used this surgery in the past like RADIO HOST ANGIE MARTINEZ , KIMORA LEE SIMMONS ,HALLE BARRY and more .

    To Each His Own
            I cannot change the way I am,
            I never really try,
            God made me different and unique,
            I never ask him why.
           
            If I appear peculiar,
            There's nothing I can do,
            You must accept me as I am,
            As I've accepted you.
           
            God made a casting of each life,
            Then threw the mold away,
            Each child is different from the rest,
            Unlike as night from day.
           
            So often we will criticize,
            The things that others do,
            But, do you know, they do not think,
            The same as me and you.
           
            So God in all his wisdom,
            Who knows us all by name,
            He didn't want us to be bored,    
            That's why we're not the same  
                ~Author Unknown~

    This is an awesome prayer.Believe it and you shall be blessed.
    The problem with many of us is that we don't believe that God will open a window and pour out blessings that we won't have enough room to receive them. I dare anyone to try God. He is true to His Word. God cannot lie and His promises are sure. Three things will happen to you this coming week:
    (1) You will find favour with someone you don't expect;
    (2) You will be too relevant to be ignored;
    (3) You will encounter God and you will never remain the same.
    My prayer for you today:
    The eyes beholding this message shall not behold evil, the hands that will send this message to others shall not labour in vain, the mouth saying Amen to this prayer shall laugh forever. Remain in God's love as you send this prayer to everybody on your list. Have a lovely journey of life! Trust in the Lord with all your heart and He will never fail you because He is AWESOME!
    If you truly need a blessing, continue reading this email:
    Heavenly Father, most Gracious, and Loving God, I pray to you that you abundantly bless my family and me. I know that you recognize, that a family is more than just a mother, father, sister, brother, husband and wife, but all who believe and trust in You. Father, I send up a prayer request for blessings for not only the person who sent this to me, but for me and all that I have forwarded this message on to. And that the power of joined prayer by those who believe and trust in You is more powerful than anything. I thank You in advance for Your blessings.

    Father God, deliver the person reading this right now from debt and debt's burdens. Release Your Godly wisdom that I may be a good steward over all that You have given me Father, for I know how wonderful and mighty You are and how if we just obey Y

    Harry, a new retiree greeter at Wal-Mart, just couldn't seem to get to
    work on time. 
    Every day he was 5, 10, 15 minutes late. But he was a good worker,
    really tidy, clean shaven, sharp minded and a real credit to the company
    and obviously demonstrating their 'Older Person Friendly'policies.
    One day the boss called him into the office for a talk. 'Harry, I have to tell you, I like your work ethic, you do a bang up
     job, but your being late so often is quite bothersome.'
    'Yes, I know, boss, and I am working on it.' 
    'Well good, you are a team player. That's what I like to hear. It's odd though, your coming in late. 
    I know you're retired from the Armed Forces. What did they say if you
    came in late there?'
    'They said; 'Good morning, General, coffee this morning

    WARM OUR HEARTS WITH THY LOVE


    OH GOD, WHO MADE THE SUMMER
    AND WARMED THE EARTH WITH BEAUTY,
    WARM OUR HEARTS WITH GRATITUDE
    AND DEVOTION TO OUR DUTY,
    FOR IN THIS AGE OF VIOLENCE,
    REBELLION AND DEFIANCE
    WE'VE FORGOTTON THIS TRUE MEANING OF
    "DEPENDABLE RELIANCE"
    WE HAVE LOST OUR SENSE OF DUTY
    AND OUR SENSE OF VALVES,TOO
    AND WHAT WAS ONCE UNSANCTIONED.
    NO LONGER IS TABOO,
    OUR STANDARDS HAVE BEEN LOWERED
    AND WE RESIST ALL DISCIPLINE,
    AND OUR VISION HAS BEEN NARROWED
    AND BLINDED TO ALL SIN
    OH PUT THE SUMMER BRIGHTNESS
    IN OUR CLOSED, UNSEEING EYES
    SO IN THE CAREWORN FACES
    THAT WE PASS WE'LL RECOGNIZE
    THE HEARTBREAK AND THE LONELINESS,
    THE TROUBLE AND DESPRAIR
    THAT A WORD OF UNDERSTANDING
    WOULD MAKE EASIER TO BEAR-
    OH, GOD, LOOK DOWN ON OUR COLD HEARTS
    AND WARMS THEM WITH YOUR LOVE,
    AND GRANT US YOUR FORGIVENESS
    WHICH WE'RE SO UNWORTHY OF .

    Grandma's boyfriend

    A 5-year-old boy went to visit his grandmother one day. Playing with his toys in her bedroom while grandma was dusting, he looked up and said, 'Grandma, how come you don't have a boyfriend now that Grandpa went to heaven?'

    Grandma replied, 'Honey, my TV is my boyfriend. I can sit in my bedroom and watch it all day long. The religious programs make me feel good and the comedies make me laugh. I'm happy with my TV as my boyfriend.'

    Grandma turned on the TV, and the reception was terrible. She started adjusting the knobs, trying to get the picture in focus. Frustrated, she started hitting the backside of the TV hoping to fix the problem.

    The little boy heard the doorbell ring, so he hurried to open the door and there stood Grandma's minister. The minister said, 'Hello son, is your Grandma home?'

    The little boy replied, 'Yeah, she's in the bedroom bangin' her boyfriend.'

    The minister fainted.
