All Chapters of Tempest in Paradise: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

Chapter Twenty-one [Dreamlining involuntarily]Because Mother Elaine had taken Matilda and Teddy to the parking lot where their car was, Ericka was left alone in the private ward, still asleep.As they went along, they had a nice relationship as neighbors, and Teddy felt better since, despite his youth, he still loved Ericka. This was thanks to the Christian sisters. Their mother found Teddy's treatment of Ericka to be amusing.“Teddy is the only child I have with my European-born spouse. He enjoys integrating with people because he gets lonely living by himself in our home. Although I was scared every time I saw him away from home due to the ongoing problems with those snakes that produce medical ailments that prevent Ericka from studying for school, I am very happy that he found her close to our farm. However, I'm glad my son already has a friend here.” As Teddy listens intently and silently to every kind comment that her devoted and kind mother makes to Ericka's mother, Matilda ex

Chapter Twenty-three: [The inexperienced, naive friend]That late afternoon in Ericka Mendel's farm house, a conversation lasted an hour about the gift of faith that God's holy Spirit had sown in her heart, mind, and soul through her experiences fighting for life against death.The little Teddy boy's eyes began to close uncontrollably, but he still listened to her. All people react normally like this when they hear the powerful and active word of God for the first time. This word judges a person's mind and intentions and pierces the spirit and soul, joints, and bone marrow. Its sharpness is comparable to a double-edged sword.Even at this young age, when not much knowledge has been ingrained aside from his struggles accepting his mother's broken marriage and his sporadic interactions with his biological father, who lives apart from them, Teddy is willing to submit to the Heavenly Father, who is above all.He may have passed the point of no return since, although he is willing and full

Chapter Twenty-five: The intrinsic CapacityBecause no pertinent data or information from the educational system enters her brain, Ericka is asleep and can explore all the colorful imagination that might arise in her currently vacant mind.This caused her to become ignorant in the same way as Teddy, who is only five years old. But she is about to turn fourteen and is still unable to continue her education because of her previous unpredictable illness."Christmas Eve is nearing, my beloved."Mama Elaine said that she was taking a large, coiled bundle of green banana leaves that had already been cut off at the midrib when she abruptly appeared from the backyard."Mama, what are your plans?”When Ericka hears her mother talking about Christmas Eve, she unexpectedly and excitedly gets out of bed. She observed her with a large load. She hurries over to assist her, but as she does, her foot slips, and she suffers severe sprains without complaining. But she realized she couldn't mislead her

Chapter 27: [The charming smiles and positive attitude on life]After Christmas break, the three teenagers awoke early to the sound of the rooster crows from the farm house, along with their neighbor and best friend Teddy. Ericka was unable to move from her bamboo bed due to the swelling in her foot. She is screaming and groaning, the roaring wind competing with her, and voices are emerging in the tremulous, stammered sound.She continued, "John, Kuya Randy, Where Are Mama and Papa? Can you come help me get out of bed?" adding, "I needed help because I had to go downstairs to the comfort room for an emergency because I had bad foot soreness."Something uncomfortable and awkward seeps into her voice. As soon as Teddy heard her, he slowly got up from where he had been lying next to John and moved toward her bedroom with the door open.Ericka is writhing in excruciating pain and tries not to let anyone touch her hurting feet. Her normal foot follows the one that hurts as she slowly and g

Chapter Twenty-nine [The predators and the whirlwind]With unclouded vision, Elaine observed the medium-sized creeping snakes that were causing the bamboo trunk stacks to collapse and their broods to vanish.“I now realize that they prey on my hens and pets at night when fewer people are around.”As they search for victims to consume, the predators are famished.“We failed to use smoke to drive them away and safeguard our livestock.”She raises her head in prayer, asking for protection over her food and money sources.“Lord, you have promised those who follow You to offer what is rightfully Yours instead of trying to get something else. We humbly beseech You in the name of an answered prayer, and we will present You our offerings as soon as we can, confident that You have safeguarded our land and resources for Your glory so that all people can know You, our God who saves and protects Your people in Jesus Christ. Amen.”Ernest remains nearby, continuing to investigate.“Now, honey, tho
