An update on the novel, Orbiting Odds.

This is going to be one of many examples how detailed these stories are.

For an example there is a strange creature usually seen at the border between Ash Peak and the city of Odds. As the story unfolds, it'll play a crucial role for the reader to understand why these cities are now divided. Including Lush Plains.

Let's took a closer look at this creature once believed to be an ordinary bird, you all are familiar with. Their drastic change will be important to piece together the puzzle as the story unfolds.

The Ash Strider: Legends of the Ash Peak

The Ash Strider, a colossal avian predator, stalks the unforgiving terrain of the Ash Peak mountains. Mutated by unknown chemicals, these creatures are both majestic and terrifying, forever intertwined with the lives of the Ash Peak people.

Updates on the Art Gallery:

If you checked the bulletin earlier, you would know that the Gallery’s extensions are now working (Reels & more). There is still more work that I need to figure out. Nevertheless, it is working, and at last, I was able to go live in real-time, not just in audio like we attempted some time ago. This time it was a full live stream; I was able to see the video stream of myself live on my phone while I was recording.

This is great. Next, I will try going live from my phone as well. However, as the viewer, you can watch from your phone or desktop regardless of whether I’m streaming from desktop or mobile.

Controls and navigation are simple and straightforward. However, to get more out of it, such as searching for videos by keywords and searching for previously recorded live streams, you…

The story will be updated this weekend and I will response to your comments, or any questions.

God bless you all.

Uphold me by Your Word, that I may live; and let me not be ashamed of my hope.

Psalms 119:116

A location that is seen, in reality or in the mind’s perception, is never instantly arrived. But with transition, like a bridge, time will be the distance worth traveling, for those who learn to wait, and observe before acting.

True Grit is not always the conquering of the wild frontier. But at times the frontier is our emotions that preys on our weaknesses. Patience is the strength that will suffice.

WISDOM FROM THE PROVERBS

Prepare thy work without, and make it fit for thyself in the field; and afterwards build thine house. Proverbs 24:27

In other words, focus on the little things that you rightly do, though difficult at times, but your business should reflect consistency, which will ultimately lead to an establishment. May your question, if need be, Lord what is my business? Bless it, Father that I may find rest therein.

Concerning this verse, Swaggart once said, “Take care first to attend to the business, and the business will ’build the house.’”

Ordena tus labores de fuera, y tenlas listas para ti en el campo; y después edifica tu casa. 

Forma primeiro a tua lavoura e levanta a tua casa, então, estarás à vontade para constituir a tua família. 

About a week ago, from a post in the bulletin, the question was asked how does Genesis 1:20 relate to our mood and the changes in mood? The verse reads; And God said, Let the waters bring forth abundantly the moving creature that has life, and fowl that may fly above the earth in the open firmament of heaven.

If we are to summarize this verse, the word which comes to mind is the word “creating.” An action taking to bring about something that was previously missing. Creation was for mankind. For in God the creator, He is the all sufficient One, El Shaddai. However, mankind is not all sufficient like God. Observe, even in the beginning, in a perfect world as it was in Eden, yet the man and woman still weren’t all sufficient.

They needed the love and the creating power of God to meet their every needs.…

A follow up from the Bulletin's update on Thursday, June 22.

Some of you saw the other painting I am working on which has a pink bird like a honeybee.

This painting is going to be a Narrative Poem (Basically a short story)

You will love it, feasting on the details and their connection one to another as you read along.

I can't give all the info now, nor the introduction. However, randomly from the painting is a little girl playing with her pets and watching her brother who found a rare egg. Out came something grand and spectacular, never seen before. She too has one of these eggs, and does not know what it might bring forth. Let us read a teaser.
