Comment from Jay Squires
It's good to put a face with the words. And I guess congratulatons are in order with the attainment of ATB and being in the number thirty-one position for the month of March. I wonder if this moves you closer to your goal of holding the world record in published books.
I am only giving you a four-star rating this time. You might look at it as a cumulative deduction because I've been thinking about it for a long time. Your body of work here on FanStory is really rather limited. It all involves God and the attributes you assign to God of Omniscience, Omnipotence, and Omnipresence does not engage the brain any more than a Sunday-school teacher can engage the brain of his or her students. As a writer with such profound aspirations of having none higher, you should strive, I would think, toward filling your reader's minds with the mysteries behind God's Omniscience, Omnipotence, and Omnipresence. What does it mean to me? What does it mean to the fighters in the streets of Ukraine? What does it mean to you? I mean truly. Not just as labels on pickle jars, that you fill up with occasional praise and then put them on the shelf for another day.
Give us something to stretch our minds. You must know huge truths from your study of the Bible. Startle us with them. Stretch our minds to the bursting point, then add to it.
I'm not trying to be mean-spirited, ALCREATOR LITT DEAR, but please don't keep feeding us pap. Inspire us with the spiritual fire that burns in you. Light us on fire, too.
Then your world record, when it is achieved, will be something you'll look at with humility because your faith-based inspiration will leave joyful ashes and love.

This was very nicely written and true to facts. I enjoyed it but lost a little in all the different ways it was written but all and all it was very good.

Al, you did great.
You incorporated the needed words and left out those that weren't allowed. And look at you - you got All Time Best and also you were recognized.
Congratulations, Sir! Well done.

Thank you for sharing. It is the hope for people when we look at how we are and what conflict may lead us to be lost in our understanding of life and love. We should believe that we can overcome. It is a good belief that we should share that things can be better if we look for them.

This fiction prose piece reinforces the Scriptures about having full faith and trust in God. The child in the story really BELIEVED in the power and love of God. His prayer (wish) was answered!

Congratulations on your win! I've arrived after the party! Nonetheless, I do think working within the enormous constraints of the many rules of this contest you've managed to eke out a most creative and impactful write.
These notes from the contest creator are rather chafing:
"I write this for some reviewers assume much, or neglect reading, or do not remember what they read, or wish to prove their wisdom ignorantly, and based on their knowledge write review unfairly, incorrectly, wrongly; I write this note so that my wise reviewers can avoid writing review unfairly, or incorrectly, or wrongly."
Less I am labeled ignorant I will simply offer my congratulations and move on!
