On our Journey with Jesus, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, We are also on a journey to lay aside every weight, and sin which clings so closely, and run with endurance the race that is set before us,looking to Jesus, the founder and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is seated at the right hand of the throne of God.
WELCOME TO OUR LIFE

Michael provides for a great funeral. Which starts to make headlines.
As the days go he is more committed in rescuing the homeless, quits the job and starts to work with Mordecai, then his wife files for a divorce.
On the last day of work at Drake and Sweeney, Michael takes the file regarding the evection of the homeless. But he had never intend to steal but just to have a look at it. The police chase him and at the same time, the firm files a case of larceny. The homeless legal clinic files a case against Drake and Sweeny and other involved in it. The case is closed with a mighty settlement and a negotiated pardon for Larceny for Michael.
The book ends with Meghan a worker at the Samaritan Home for women on his encounters of the homeless. And the Firm Drake and Sweeney coming forward in helping the homeless with their needs.
It’s a thrilling story with suspense so you wouldn’t want to put your book down
“…Priviledge people don’t march and protest; their world is safe and clean and governed by laws designed to keep them happy. I had never taken to the streets before; why bother? And for the first block or two I felt odd, walking in a mass of people, holding a stick with a placard bearing the face of a twenty -two-year-old black mother who bore four illegitimate children…”
A Must read book for all

Book Review - The Appeal by John Grisham
'Justice on whose side'
I started the book thinking, that the book would be of an appeal of the good would win over the evil.
John Grisham starts the book of with a hung jury hungry for the verdict,
It is a story of the Payton family who files a case against Krane Chemicals, illegally dumped deadly chemical near a village called Bowmore. The chemical eventually got into the ravens and polluted the drinking water supply and with that effect, people affected with cancer die.
With that that place is called the cancer county. The verdict is pronounced and there is a payoff of 41 million dollars.
The case goes to an appeal to the supreme court where the The Krane chemical company manuplates and buys out the entire supreme court and gets the verdict in favour of the chemical company.
A case that had been held for under a hot trail for four months, and 16,000 pages of writing and then the verdict, which was hard to believe for the council. Followed by an appeal at the supreme court after 2 years.
The entire process of this book is, getting to the supreme court, and then the verdict.
The story is a 50/50 % a complicated fictious book.
My verdict: A good writing skill to keep the page turning.
