Acrylic on canvas
📖 Proverbs 30
Most of my paintings are cathartic. They are an open expression of a strong emotion I have experienced in my personal walk with the Lord. Sometimes I feel inclined to share my experience through story with the painting. Othertimes, strokes of color on the canvas eventually turn into something worthy of calling art as God strokes away dark cavernous areas of my heart in the process. His Heavenly colors I have learned to appreciate are conviction, truth, love, mercy, and grace. Each one has shaped me into the man I am becoming. As I share my experiences through story and art, I pray that the only righteousness seen in me is the righteousness of Christ. For without Him, I am a blank canvas.
Proverbs 30 is one of my favorite chapters in the book. For most of my adult life I have focused on verses 8 and 9 which says, “Keep deception and lies far from me, give me neither poverty nor riches; That I not be full and deny you and say, “Who is the Lord?” or that I not be in want and steal, and profane the name of my God.” The bridge between this verse in relation to how Jesus taught us to pray in Luke 11. “... Give us this day our daily bread,” is one that I stand on often.
But recently verse 16 caused me to pause, ponder, and pray.
...the earthly things that never say, “Enough!”
The author is making a beautiful and poetic contrast of the Creator of grand but humble things compared to the things here on earth that never satisfy. Once again I am convicted by God's words and my wretched ways. But none of us have to look far to see that we live in a world of people who are rarely satified. Whispers constantly telling us that we need more. TV Ads, Movies, Magazines, Keeping Up With Neighbors, Store Sales, Social Media, Government Give Aways, they are all saturating our character, culture, our families, and yes even our churches .
Verses 15-16 says, “The leech has two daughters, “Give,” “Give.” There are three things that will not be satisfied, four that will not say, “Enough!” Sheol, and the barren womb, earth that is never satisfied with water, and fire that never says, “Enough!” The fire of hell continually burns bringing strife and death and continues to ask for more. Much like the fire that can't stop consuming, sin of the flesh has the same tendency when it comes to wanting more.
As the conviction of God's truth penetrates my heart, I am reminded of the contrast of Jesus. The author of Proverbs points out in verse 5 that our Lord is a shield to all who take refuge in Him.
When have I ever said, "Enough, Lord?" Never, when it's for my own gain. I only cry out, "Enough," when I am experiencing hardship, difficulty, sickness, and pain. The truth is I have days when I want more. More time, more money, more friends who love and live for the Lord, more creativity, more knowledge, more for my family, our future, more, more, more. And when I want more for myself, I have temporarily forgotten the most important truth --
Christ is enough!
2 Corinthians 12:9
But He said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for my strength is made perfect in weakness."
Love,
Glenn

So good!
Format: Kindle
Oh my goodness! What did I just read? Lyra Winters you have some serious explaining to do! That cliffhanger killed me! I am so happy to be back in the world of Kalista. This is definitely darker than Fates Hollow but oh so good. This is a fated mates reverse harem which I absolutely love.
Pandora had a very hard and rough upbringing. She lives in pain constantly and it makes it hard on her. She struggles with everything because she was kept so isolated and is new to her magic. Pandora gets sent to the Reform Academy and all of them have reasons why they are there. I love how, after everything she has been through, she is still a nice person. She is growing and becoming stronger too. Love her character.
The guys all act like jerks at first but all have a back story that helps understand why even though want to smack them. I'm here for the groveling that I'm sure will come. I love them all. They each bring something for her. They are all drawn to her though.
This is a slow burn book but there will be more books in the series so sure it will build. Man, that cliffhanger was a doozy and need book 2 now!

Good-ish

🌶️ 0/5
⭐️ 3/5
I will preface this by saying I am not a huge RH fan. However it didn’t feel like a RH quite yet. The relationships and plot are all building in this book. At first I was thinking things were happening stupid fast since she’s had zero interaction with another being and has been tortured her whole life, and I believe they were for one side of the relationship, but by 50% things moved too slow lol. Idk I think the main 1-3 guys I’m actually interested in more than the others didn’t get enough air time so I hope the next book things start moving with them since it ended the way it did.

Can I have Term 2 now?
Format: Kindle
This is by far my favorite book of Lyra's to date. I gobbled this book up so fast, I was so upset I finished it. I know this is going to be a book I reread, just like Fate Hollow Academy.
I loved Fate Hollow Academy, so I was excited when Lyra announced she was taking us readers back to Kalista. Although the characters from Fate Hollow are mentioned several times throughout the book, this book is about Pandora and her love interests in the Demon Realm.
Before you deep dive into this book, definitely look at the trigger warnings before you start. When Lyra says there's dark themes in this book, she meant it. Also, just know this book does end on a cliffhanger and will probably leave you with as many questions as it did me.
Below may contain some minor spoilers, so keep that in mind if you want to keep reading my review.
Pandora's first 2 decades of her life are full of torture, hatred, and confinement in a cellar. That is until her father finds her and brings her into the world she was supposed to live in. Because of her upbringing she wasn't acclimated to the Demon world and the way their society works so when she is offered the chance to go to a Demon Reform Accademy, she accepts it to learn the ways of society and how she is supposed to feed.
Pandora isn't like the other common demons in this world, no. She, like her father Death, are soul-eaters. Pandora is too scared to release her powers because she doesn't want to kill anyone, so she needs to learn how to feed off of a piece of soul instead of taking the whole thing.
Because of who her father is, she's classed as a Noble, and while she doesn't agree with her fellow Noble students, who look down on the "lower" class, she also is faced with 3 Demons who hate her for being a Noble. Theses a lot of back and forth tension which these 3 demons who have issues of their own. One is obsessed with her, and wants to know all of her secrets. One leaks fear all over the place, but also is scared of the "princess" -wink- -wink-. One is a complete drunk who doesn't like her just because he's got family Noble problems.
Don't worry, there are 2 other demons who are just the sweetest towards her. One who will get vengeance for anything done to her, he's got Golden Retriever energy around her and touch her and die energy for anyone around her. Finally, there is one who is friends with her even when the whole school is scared of her, who brings her into his dreams and will create nightmares for those who bother her.

This was more than I expected...
Format: Kindle
So...I finished this book at nearly 2am! It was just that hard to put down. I loved that it's set in the same world as Fates Hollow but in the future. Poor Pandora has been through so much but there's light at the end of the tunnel for her. She finally meets her dad and it turns out he's amazing. In order to help her learn about demon society and how to control her magic he sends her to the Demon Reform Academy. There she meets 2 awesome demons who help her and care for her. She also sadly meets her 3 tormentors. I will say though that while they do bully Pandora they also rescue her several times and defend her. They too have traumatizing pasts and can't see the good that is in front of them. Of course demon society needs to be shaken up too since that's part of the problem. I really enjoyed this read. I teared up a few times throughout the book but I liked the characters and that ending...well it looks like 3 in denial are going to need to grovel hard.

MUST READ BOOK!!
Format: Kindle
I was in a huge reading slump, when one of my favorite authors recommended this book in her readers group (The amazing Marie Mistry 🫶) and I absolutely DEVOURED this book. Now I’m in the club crying about having to wait until December for Term 2!
This book is about a girl named Pandora who has suffered a life that nobody would ever wish to have. This book is about Pandora learning how to live, learning about herself and what she really wants. She has a long journey to find out all of these things, but she took the first steps in this book and it was beautiful to read. Some of the men in this book are our dream men, Hunter and Reed 😍 and then we have the men who need some work and who we all really just want to beat up until they admit what they really feel, Skel, Bram and Dexter. But that cliffy was a killer and I absolutely cannot wait until the next book!!
You have written an absolute dream of a book Lyra and I eagerly await the next installment in this series!!!
