car's front doors and one of the back doors opened promptly. Two heavily armoured men jumped out with stern faces and big rifles. Out of one door came a man. He was dragged to the side escorted by these two men. I knew this was serious… His hair shining wet in the scorching sun. His back hunched over. While his face looked drowned out. Trousers soaking wet. His eyes red like an open cut. Who knows what his intentions were this time, but at least he’s back where this sick minded creep belongs……

She has persistently expressed the knightly virtues of generosity, faith and courage, and this is why I have awarded her with the “Knight in Shining Armor Award.” On most Sunday nights, Audrey Mann welcomes my Lifegroup into her home with a smile and a hug. I know I can always count on her to say, “I’ve missed you” or, “It’s so great to see you.” Sometimes we are greeted by her children,…

“Guillotine” by Jon Bellion is a song to listen to when feeling hopeless and lost in a world of thought. Despite the chorus being about a guillotine, which represents death by decapitation, Bellion’s reference to a guillotine is about himself losing control, and even though he does sometimes lose his head, the significant other in this song will still love him no matter what.
