DEUTERONOMY S.O.A.P. ~ CHAPTER 19
Friday, 4/21/23
SCRIPTURE:
Show no pity: life for life, eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot.   ~ Deuteronomy 19:21
OBSERVATION:
"Payback" is "one-for-one" - no escalation, no ratcheting up...
Even so - or especially so - I am SO glad and grateful that Jesus came and changed this for me...
That God showed pity - kindness - love - for me despite my "death deserving" actions - my sin...
He gave grace for life, grace for eye, grace for tooth, grace for hand, grace for foot...
His life for my life...
APPLICATION:
My life for Him...
PRAYER:
Merciful, loving heavenly Father - Thank You for giving me Jesus... May Your Holy Spirit remind me of the price He paid for me, and remind me to surrender my will for Yours every time I am tempted to wander off and do my own thing and not Yours... In Jesus's Name, Father, and for Your glory and worship and praise...
For Him... for y'all... and your'n...

Romans 11:6 (NLT) - And since it is through God’s kindness, then it is not by their good works. For in that case, God’s grace would not be what it really is—free and undeserved.

Got emotional about thara again this morning and it's not even 10am. Weepy but also maybe peaceful and things can be kind and good and gentle even as they are terrible and full of despair. Idk. Makes no sense, but it's true.

I will honestly never pick up this game again if we find out that Lilia was off somewhere playing video games while Silver was putting himself on the line for the sake of interspecies harmony, FULLY READY TO ACCEPT PUNISHMENT THAT HE DIDN'T DESERVE (me throttling ace and jack in the bg!!!!), and being the one and only true human-fae liaison!!!
This chapter alone made me all the more certain that he has to be some manner of royalty; you just know if he ends up being a prince he's going to dedicate his entire life improving relations between briar valley and humans, all for the sake of following Lilia's teachings and to fulfill his father's dream

Today in "texts I have sent my partner":
Tumblr media
[ID: A screenshot of a text message that reads, "And if there's one thing I want out of this life, it is to be a dark specter on the door of Eric Kripke's career". End ID.]
#eric kripke#the boys#supernatural#winchester#writing#I wish to be a grim portent of doom ever at the heels of his legacy#I wish to see a world in which so many marginalized people are able to tell their stories that#men like Eric Kripke fade slowly back into the irrelevance they always deserved#image description#see jack talk#your kingdom shall be mine. and I shall topple your great monuments to mediocrity and replace them with art that goddamn gives a shit#so say I to every cishet white man who has more than he has earned. go retire and enjoy your undeserved money. the real writers want a shot#all I want in this entire world is to help people and for other people to give a shit about my OCs#and whenever I see someone with a platform and an adoring fan base that they don't appreciate - it makes me want to explode#and should there come a day when I am successful in my goals. may I have the good grace to lift other voices up.#to never stop striving to be better as a person and a writer. and to never stop absolutely losing my shit over fan art of my characters.#I'm serious this is all I want in the whole wide world if I had a genie wish that had to be selfish that is what I would wish for#it would be like World Peace and Equality. and then a dedicated group of fans who care enough about my work to make their own fan work.#and then. presuming we are working by Disney Aladdin rules. I guess I would set the genie free!#and that is as much thought as I'm going to put into this until I find a magic lamp. or I will end up down a really long rabbit hole.#edit: just to be clear this is not a threat of harmful action against eric kripke it is just a harsh trashing of his work#I don't actually wish the man personal harm

plotted starter for @countlessrealitiess-2​‘s mabel! verse is v7 | undeserved grace
Tumblr media
It had been many months since any footsteps had been heard in the mall, apart from his own. The silence overtook the once bustling car like a plague, louder to Simon than any sounds that the Apex had once made. He tried to get used to it. But he couldn’t, not really. He could only learn to live with it, though even doing that was, at times, hard.
He wandered idly through the rooms on the lower floor, attempting to quench a restlessness that overtook him more and more each day. He avoided Grace’s room on the upper floor like the plague, and even his own had taken on a haunted feeling that he couldn’t describe.
But then, so had the entire mall. Without the Apex, it was a shell of what it once was.
The mall itself hadn’t changed. And that in and of itself felt wrong, filling him with an uncanny and eerie feeling that only increased with each room he entered. It wasn’t unlike the way he had felt in the room where Samantha kept her “collection.” What started as a subtle dread, that kept amplifying until it had escalated into full-blown panic.
He hadn’t quite gotten to that point yet, when a sound from outside abruptly snapped him out of it. He jolted, heart racing as his gaze snapped in the direction of the sound- though, he couldn’t see into the outer room from where he was.
It sounded like a door opening.
His immediate instinct was to assume he had imagined it. He was, unfortunately, at the point where imagining things wasn’t out of the question. And yet, he knew very well that passengers found the mall car from time to time. They had gained a few members of the Apex that way.
If it had happened before, and there was nothing to stop it from happening again. It wasn’t as if the mall car had been cut off from the rest of the train. It was still a train car like any other, albeit drastically changed from what it was originally intended to be.
There was only one way to find out for sure.
He returned to the doorway of the ransacked store. Squinting, he scanned the outer room from there. Until, sure enough, his gaze landed on what was unmistakably another passenger. A much younger passenger, as far as he could tell from a distance.
He didn’t know how to react.
Did he ignore her? Let her move on, without any knowledge that another passenger was there?
It would be the easier option. But he wasn’t sure it was the right one.
Because as much as he hated the idea of it, as much as he resisted it- something needed to change. And finally seeing another passenger, after being isolated for so long… well, that was certainly a change.
So, he stepped through the doorway, into the outer area of the mall.

ghost x gn!reader — “sharper teeth” (blurb)
After Las Almas, everyone changed. That much is obvious. Probably more so Ghost, Soap, and you—you always thought Ghost and Soap got the most shit from the situation. Ghost, being hunted down and hiding in a Church in the city. Soap earned a bullet, luckily nonfatal, and you? That’s something you’re not very keen on sharing with, well.. Anyone, really. The boys call it lying when you insist nothing happened, you call it keeping your business close to yourself.
Over the next few following months, however, it became increasingly obvious something is wrong with you. If it wasn’t evident in your bark, it was evident in your bite. After Las Almas, your scores suddenly shot up to excellent, top of the scoreboard when you’ve consistently earned “great” scores. Your scores topping some of the folks who’ve nearly always scored higher than you, so of course the sudden improvement would catch some eyes. Eyes that you never wanted on you in the first place.
It started out with compliments from everyone, especially the Captain. Price slapping down a hand on your shoulder, holding a piece of paper with your weapon’s qualifications. A grin and a congratulations that burns. You accept his words with grace despite how undeserving it feels. You should’ve been doing this well a long time ago. Ghost offered you impressed nods, elbow bumps. His touch feels acidic and wrong, despite his positive undertones. Gaz’s handshakes and hugs, his words make your ears feel like they’re going to bleed. Soap’s money spent on celebratory drinks feels like wasted currency.
It went from compliments from your team and your other peers to harsh words, fists, and fights; to blood smeared on the sparring mat. 
Something is wrong and you’re not going to get away with hiding it away forever, Ghost thinks.
