In the Bible, the Lord asked that we not make promises unless we are sure that we can keep them. Lisa made a promise and has done everything in her power to keep that promise. a lesson her father needed to learn. Before he was able to practice keeping his promise, he lost the love of his daughter, his best friend, and he was about to lose the love of his son. Time was running out for all of them, but they didn’t know it.

Book Excerpt:

Lisa opened the front door and found herself looking at two

very large men. Both were smiling salesmen smiles. Both had on

business suits. Both of them were empty-handed.

“Hello ma’am. My name is Thomas, and this is Chet. We

were wondering if we could pray with you this morning.” Lisa

noticed neither of them was carrying a Bible or any other form

of religious material.

Trouble! Her mind screamed. Lisa tried to act casual, hoping

her instincts were wrong. She tried to smile back, but something

about their eyes stopped her. They looked friendly enough, but

their smiles did not extend to their eyes.

Thomas was blond and thin on top. Chet had thick dark

brown hair. They both glanced behind them then back at Lisa.

She started to speak then changed her mind. Thomas’s body

language told her it was best to watch and listen instead. Her

instincts proved to be right.

Lisa surprised them by attempting to slam the door on them.

Thomas shoved his foot in the door. Using all his weight, he

pushed the door open. He quickly stepped inside, swinging at

Lisa as he came in.

She backed up and ducked at the same time. He missed. As

Lisa came back to a standing position, she shoved her suitcase

into his midsection then turned to run. Thomas doubled over

in pain.

Chet stepped around him. He grabbed Lisa by the hair, pulling

her to a stop. She backed into him, placing her elbow fi rmly in

his midsection. He doubled over.

By now Thomas was up and moving again. He reached for

Lisa as he tried to step around Chet.

Thomas stumbled and lost his balance. So did Lisa. She fell

to the fl oor. Again he reached for her. Lisa pushed herself back

quickly in a movement that was similar to that of a game she’d

played as a child.

Thomas grabbed her left foot and pulled her towards him. Lisa

kicked him in the nose as hard as she could with her right foot.

He screamed, let go and grabbed his face.

Lisa got up tried to jump over Thomas but didn’t make it. He

grabbed both her feet, tripping her. He then crawled up her body

and turned her over to face him.

His nose was spurting blood. His mouth was foaming spit and

blood. His eyes were wide with hate. He hit the right side of her

jaw so hard the bone fractured.

Dear God, no, she prayed. She needed to get to Zach.

The pain caused her vision to blur; then everything went

black.
