xx 𝕷The grief was consuming. It devoured every ounce of strength Avery had. It was hard to deal with. To conquer the demons that were within her now that her grandfather had passed away. Alone, she would not be able to bear it, but she was not alone. She had Jesus Christ, her savior, by her side. Standing alongside her and holding her hand as the storm raged within her. He was her rock and her foundation that would never crumble. That was why Avery had chosen that day to spend time in the library and swallow herself within the Bible. God's holy word. She knew it would be the only thing to make her feel better as the grief threatened to pull her under again.
The scent of old books and dust clung to the air of the library. Spoken words only but a whisper. Perfect. It was the perfect place to find peace and envelope herself in love. The love of God. That was what she needed above all else in that moment.
Sitting down in a quiet corner of the room, Avery began to read. She read that day from the book of Job where Job spoke of his own never-ending grief and how his close friends stuck by his side as he faced it. Avery felt herself relax reading this passage. It was good to know that she was not alone in this storm raging on around her. She was so focused on her book that she did not notice the girl standing and watching.xx
