Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge it will pass away...And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.
1 Corinthians 13:4-8,13 NIV
These verses refer to "philadelphia" or "brotherly love." It isn't only this love about which I write though. Unconditional love, or "agape" is also, I hope, shown in this story. If there is one time my main character puts conditions on her love for anyone, please let me know. The only one I know of is when she is asked by God to love a man, as in marriage. He is of a fallen race and she is of an unfallen race. She learns her lesson about that condition though.
If anyone reading this knows Hebrew or Biblical Hebrew, see if you can catch the significance of the names of some of the characters. I will end up changing the other characters's names to fit too, when I get to the revising stage.
No weapon formed against me shall prosper.
Isaiah 54:17 NIV
This will contain the chapters of my novel, Alien Bond: Spring of Life. I will leave this up until I get to the publishing phase. I appreciate feedback on this because I know my eyes are biased to the story and others can find the little or big mistakes that might be in the story.
This is Sci-fi Romance with a Supernatural Biblical twist.
Happy reading.
