The reason why Christian is struggling to escape the Slough of Despond is because his burden is weighing down on him…

brothers is because they all love to do some type of off-roading, so I thought they would be part of my last day. I chose Bryce because his favorite thing to do is offroading, when he has spare time he goes outback behind our house and tears up the slough. The reason I picked Weston is that he pulls me out of a rut every time I get stuck. Quinn is one in my family that has the biggest truck, with the best tires, so I figure that he wouldn’t mind doing a little off-roading.…

“Finally, all of you, have unity of mind, sympathy, brotherly love, a tender heart, and a humble mind.” 1Peter 3:8, ESV. When I was little, my family said I carried my heart on my arm, because I was so sensitive and caring.

The Devil and Tom Walker The setting of Washington Irving’s “The Devil and Tom Walker” serves as a way for Irving to foreshadow coming events, especially events that are rather… grim. For example, “The swamp was… grown with great gloomy pines and hemlocks”. Pine is a tree that can be seen as symbolising an everlasting element, and hemlock is extremely poisonous to domestic animals and, more importantly, humans. Later, Tom Walker meets the character named ‘Old Scratch, or the devil. The devil is…

For instance, when the protagonist is stranded in the Slough of Dispond and Pliable abandons him, Paraclete encourage Christian and aid him. Alternatively, if Paraclete is with him, Christian may never even fall into the slough to begin with.

the brutal fields. It needs courage to watch and face the cruel scenes. The soldier was not only one that was brave to face the brutal war. The nurse “was equally brave” (1455).

This is not what everyone can do every day. To look at these scenes every day, nurses must have…
