C.E.’s Comments (group member since Nov 11, 2016)

C.E.’s comments from the Baqash Discussion group.

It's so nice being back to writing. I think I've written 4 chapters in the past 7 days. Around 9,000 words. Almost 44% of the way done. Baqash was 75,000 words. With Darash I'm aiming for 112,500 words.

Hoping to get another chapter done tonight.

Every so often, I encounter a Scripture that captures my attention and I have to stop and ponder its meaning. For the past month this is the Word that has gripped my soul.

A faithful man will abound with blessings, But he who makes haste to be rich will not go unpunished. - Proverbs 28:20

"Emuwnah", Hebrew for "faithful" is also translated as: firmness, fidelity, steadfastness, steadiness (Strongs H530). If we re-read it as "A steadfast man..." the meaning becomes more interesting. It makes me think of a person who is steadfast in the Lord, firm and reliable.

"But he who makes haste" in the original language is "uwts uwts": to press, be pressed, make haste, urge, be narrow (Strongs H214). This makes me think of a person who will stop at nothing to get money...haste - haste. "I need my money, now!"

"Will not go unpunished" is "naqah naqah": to be empty, be clear, be pure, be free, be innocent, be desolate, be cut off (Strongs H5352). Does it mean to "be desolate and cut off" from God?

I wonder at the words "blessing" and "riches". God gives blessings, but man seeks riches. What is the difference between blessings and riches? Bĕrakah and ashar?

What do you think of this Proverb?

"The worldwide earthquake destroyed everything, especially hope. The End Times have begun, how will the Saved survive? Terry is going to work near downtown Cleveland, OH when the 9.6 worldwide earthquake strikes. Will she get out alive?"

It is free on many platforms and from multiple distributors.

How will people survive after a devastating 9.6 world-wide earthquake demolished everything?

How will the Saved survive?

Hoping to pass out copies to waitresses, signed and personalized, along with a tip.

O. F. is a 12,000 word short story about Terry (She's in Baqash, Darash, and book 4 of the series). The P. B. should be 60 pages.

So please pray this book reaches those and plants or waters whomever the Spirit is drawing near.

I've been itching to get this character written for a long time. Sarah has had a couple of other names and been written into two different books which flopped. But she needed written.
