    The approach you will see me take is not conventional. You won’t see the typical daily devotional material laid out to digest. This study is based on a personal struggle in reading other daily devotionals. I’ve tried to bring such lessons to mind later in the same day of its reading, and discovered that I had just been mouthing or thinking the words out in rote litany. I found myself forgetting, or being distracted from the power of words and content; and by the next day’s offering, yesterday’s spiritual bread was nothing but a faint taste of memory.Lord, bestow to me this day, tomorrow’s feeding, that I may rest and reflect in it, dwell in it, learn from it and share it with any who desire to know you and your way, better. I ask, that as I go about my daily routine, you lead me beside still waters to nourish me with whatever wisdom you choose to reveal, that I may be lead on a path of righteousness, for your name’s sake.

    JUPITER RISING – THE CELESTIAL CHRONICLES 
    Book 2 of 6  The Centaur's Prophecy 
    This story is summarized as follows: 
    In The Centaur’s Prophecy, Dr. Minerva Voss deciphers a star-map leading to Enceladus, where the last Sagittari centaur, Chiron, reveals a dire truth: Jove imprisons Nyx, a void entity now breaking free. The Syndicate, led by Darius Kane, attacks, seeking to weaponize this power. Chiron imprints Minerva with celestial runes, showing her visions of a cosmic arrow—the only weapon capable of sealing Nyx. As the Library collapses, Minerva’s team escapes, pursued by Kane’s centaur-hybrid drones. The runes guide them toward the Horsehead Nebula, where the arrow is hidden. With the Syndicate closing in and Nyx’s corruption spreading, Minerva must master her new connection to the Sagittari or risk annihilation. The hunt for the arrow becomes a race against time, blending ancient mythology and interstellar warfare, setting the stage for a battle that will decide humanity’s fate.  
    This is the second of six audiobooks in the series, the next will become available in the very near future and I do hope you enjoy this second instalment, and it's only $3, all subsequent will remain at that price. 
    I have worked very hard and meticulously to provide you with an enjoyable experience, the initial opening credit music which does run to approximately 2 1/2 minutes and prepares you for the start, synthesizer, bass and cymbals in a soul/funk form. The closing music ends the tale on a darker tone and at about 2 minutes and the same musical instruments, genre and industrial/fearful mood but with more caution added.  
    The story itself runs to about 15 minutes and is narrated in my own voice.  
    I do hope you enjoy this audiobook and let me know what you think, there are a lot more to come!
