Faceless (Sinister Secrets Book 2) Candle Sutton (android based ebook reader TXT) 📖

intensely personal. Jesus, who never rejected anyone, no matter how much they might deserve it.

“You’re right.” She held Wendy’s eyes for a second. “I’m in.”

Wendy’s smile stretched across her face. “Then let’s pray. The Bible says that if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved.”

It felt weird praying in the middle of the restaurant, but now that she’d decided, she didn’t want to wait.

When she finished, Wendy reached across the table and squeezed her hand. “Now that’s worth celebrating. I say we order dessert and tonight, it’s on me.”

It was worth celebrating. It was a new beginning.

While she didn’t necessarily feel any different, she knew in her heart that she’d never be the same again.

If you’re like me, you might sometimes forget what a personal God we have. Too often I go through life thinking of God as loving and all powerful, but forget how intensely personal He is. Yet when we look at scripture, we see time and time again that God is personal.

He walked and talked with Adam and Eve in the garden of Eden. (Genesis 2-3)

He called Abraham his friend. (Isaiah 41:8, James 2:23)

He spoke with Moses as a friend. (Exodus 33:9-11)

He led the nation of Israel out of Egypt and through the desert, then gave them the land He’d promised. (Exodus-Joshua)

He called David a man after His own heart. (Acts 13:22)

He appeared to Solomon in a dream and offered Solomon the opportunity to ask for whatever he wanted. (1 Kings 3)

He appointed countless prophets to point people to Himself.

And if all of that wasn’t enough, He sent Jesus to pay the price for our sins. (John 3:16-17)

God is all about relationship. Crazy as it sounds, He wants to have a relationship with you! I hope you’ve responded to that call, but if you haven’t, or if you have questions, please find someone who knows God and talk to them. If you don’t know anyone, please feel free to email me at candle.sutton@outlook.com. I would be happy to talk to you.

Relationships take effort. God took the initiative and reached out to us, He made a way for us to know Him, but we have a responsibility to respond. If it’s been a while since you opened the Bible, or talked to God, why wait? There’s great blessing in engaging with our personal God!

Thank you for reading. May you enjoy the fullness of life with God.

Excerpt from Relentless

Prologue

Click.

Jon Rand’s steps slowed. He’d know that sound anywhere.

A switchblade.

He put an arm in front of his wife Elizabeth and surveyed the surrounding area.

No sign of any hostiles.

Didn’t mean someone wasn’t there.

Light spilled out of the restaurant behind them, casting long shadows across the sidewalk.

A muffled cry came from the alley a few feet away.

He turned to Elizabeth, holding her wide eyes with his own. “Go inside. Call 911.”

Fingers gripped his arm. “Come with me.”

He shook his head. Someone was in trouble. He couldn’t walk away from that. His training wouldn’t let him. “Don’t come out until the police arrive.”

After a second’s hesitation, she scurried back toward the
