My Resilience
She was eight when the civil war broke out. She thought the sound of guns was thunder and was looking forward to playing in the mud. Before the day was out, her neighbors were being shot in the street. Sarah Gabriel remembers the run to the border, refugees eaten by crocodiles, her time in a rebel training camp and then, like magic, being whisked away to a residential boarding school in Cuba. This was a trial all on its own because her father, the SPLM ambassador from South Sudan, was recalled and he and her mother then disappeared. A compelling theme of this book is how she found the inner strength to overcome these obstacles, finish school, fly to Canada as refugee, and then prosper there through hard work. But beyond that, it is the story of how Sarah not only found herself but saved her family as well. One small girl against the world. It's quite a journey; you'll be amazed, awed, comforted, and uplifted by her story and her resilience.
Three Days to Moriah
God was not surprised by the sudden acceptance of His proposal. He knew that Abraham would no doubt say yes, but the true trial would be going through with the sacrifice. Seeing Abraham walk away abruptly prompted the Lord to get up as well to try and follow Abraham as he started to walk in any direction other then where he was, but God settled back to His seat noticing that Abraham was walking away for a reason. He wanted to be alone. Abraham answered the question out of haste and was immediately regretting the fact that he said he would do it. He had convinced himself that all he had to do was stall for time and sort out his thoughts. As Abraham walked away, staring in the white distance, his mind rolled over the same question over and over; how could I possibly do this? Coming to the conclusion that he had already agreed to the deed and that he could not deceive the one true God, Abraham put it out of his mind and decided to go along with the sacrifice until he could think of something to get him and Isaac out of harm's way.
"Peter Gabriel, From Genesis to Growing Up "
Ever since Peter Gabriel fronted progressive rock band Genesis, from the late 1960s until the mid 1970s, journalists and academics alike have noted the importance of Gabriel's contribution to popular music. His influence became especially significant when he embarked on a solo career in the late 1970s. Gabriel secured his place in the annals of popular music history through his poignant recordings, innovative music videos, groundbreaking live performances, the establishment of WOMAD (the World of Music and Dance) and the Real World record label (as a forum for musicians from around the world to be heard, recorded and promoted) and for his political agenda (including links to a variety of pol...
