As Long As You Both Shall Live
A Christian Contemporary Romance with Suspense
(Dangerous Series Book 2)
by Linda K. Rodante
Social worker Sharee Jones has enough to think about–anonymous phone calls, an attack on her life, and uneasiness about her relationship with missionary pilot John Jergenson. The last thing she wants is a marriage proposal.
Commitment to God was easy in the jungles of Indonesia, but when John Jergenson returns home, Sharee refuses his marriage proposal, someone tries to kill them, and a personal tragedy hits. As Easter approaches, will love prevail and his faith survive?
Reviewer Dana McCall Michael says, “I loved the relationship between Sharee and John…The mystery (kept me) on the edge of my seat and had me until the end. I also love the fact that (the story) deals with a spiritual message.”
Another reviewer: Suspense is right! Ms. Rodante keeps you guessing till the spine tingling climax. She also fearlessly addresses deep spiritual truths. An amazingly good read.
Reading is AMAZING!

Verse of the Day and Devotional 6/20/2022
June 20th, 2022
Scripture
And Elijah said to her, “Do not fear; go and do as you have said. But first make me a little cake of it and bring it to me, and afterward make something for yourself and your son. For thus says the Lord, the God of Israel, ‘The jar of flour shall not be spent, and the jug of oil shall not be empty, until the day that the Lord sends rain upon the earth.’” – 1 Kings 17:13-14 ESV
Devotion
Our verses for today are part of the story of Elijah and the widow of Zarephath told in 1 Kings 17. The story is instructive in a number of ways, but perhaps its most important lesson is what it has to say about giving. When the Spirit of God is at work in the world, it pays to support that work.
Elijah was in the midst of his struggle with King Ahab and Queen Jezebel of the Northern Kingdom of Israel. Because of their sins and the sins of the people, Elijah had prophesied that there would be a drought. During the drought, the Lord told Elijah to go to Zarephath because He had “commanded a widow there to feed you.” The widow told Elijah that she was about to prepare her last meal and then die, so he assured her with the words of our verses for today.
