And I shall now inflict upon my longsuffering readers...Part II :)

 I had hoped to post this earlier in the week, but don't want to get too far ahead of myself by posting the chapters too quickly.  Also, some technical difficulties (or maybe "operator troubles"?) prevented me from accessing the file for a few days, hence it being posted this evening.  I hope it is encouraging and an enjoyable read, despite the fact that I am a very amateur writer.  :)

Journeying in the Light- Part II

And with fear and trembling I...

     Post part 1 of my latest writing project!  This was originally supposed to be a short story for my blog, but it has been sort of growing...  At the rate I'm writing it's writing itself :)  it will be a full length book by the time I am through with it.  I am fully aware that this chapter is more of an introduction into the rest of the story, but I hope you still enjoy it.  May the Lord use it to bless and encourage at least one person who reads it.  After all, it's not about me, but about Him!  All glory to God!

The below link takes you to a Google docs version of it.  If you want PDF shoot me an email (or comment) and I will send you one.  Enjoy!

Journeying in the Light. Part I

A Lady of England: The Jewels of Charlotte Maria Tucker

      Her real name was Charlotte Maria Tucker, but her books were published semi-anonymously under the pseudonym A.L.O.E. - A Lady Of England. Born in England, her father was twice chairman of the British East India Company, and her family was well off financially. Her original writings were not necessarily always Christ-exalting, but later on her focus changed and she wrote always with a very clear purpose- to bring glory to God and encourage her readers, especially children, to trust and follow Christ with all their hearts. In nearly every book she clearly presents the Gospel, and always ties it to the necessary change which will take place in the life of a believer. I am not sure if she is reformed in her theology or not, but in every book I have read by her the plan of salvation is Biblical. I first ran across one of her books soon after we listened to our first Lamplighter Theater audio drama. I hunted around online to see if I could find any free ones, and found the first two episodes of The Robber's Cave (a continuing favorite of mine). I was disappointed when it turned out to be only a sample, because I desperately wanted to find out what happened. How did the story end? So I got on Internet Archive and hunted down the book. Of course I really liked it, and wanted to read more of her stories, but got distracted and kind of forgot about them. Then just recently I was reminded of A.L.O.E. when browsing around the Lamplighter website, and decided to find a few more of her titles online. Here are a few that I've found:
