"Be of good comfort, Master Ridley, and play the man. We shall this day, by God's grace, light such a candle in England as I trust shall never be put out."
- Hugh Latimer to Nick Ridley on Oct. 16, 1555.
Let it be said of us while we walked among the living - let it be said of us by the ones we leave behind. Let it be said of us that we lived to be a blessing for Life.
And let it be said of us that we gave to reach the dying. Let it be said of us by the fruit we leave behind. Let it be said of us that our legacy is blessing for Life.
This day You set Life, You set Death right before us. This day every blessing and curse is a choice now, and we will choose to be a blessing for Life.
Let it be said of us that our hearts belong to Jesus. Let it be said of us that we spoke the words of Life. Let it be said of us that our heritage is blessing for Life.
This day You set Life, You set Death right before us. This day every blessing and curse is a choice now, and we will choose to be a blessing for Life.
'Cause blessings, curses, are choices. Will we build up, tear down? The moment of truth is now.
This day You set Life, You set Death right before us. This day every blessing and curse is a choice now, and we will choose to be a blessing for Life.
For Your Kingdom, for our children, for the sake of every nation. For Your Kingdom, for our children, for the sake of every nation - we will choose to be a blessing for Life.

GUBA Kid, and thankful for it every day.
If you want to contact me feel free to e-mail or PM me. I'm on AIM as Wish Wielder, MSN as wish_wielder@hotmail.com, and Yahoo! as wish_wielder. I'm always up for a chat - I totally won't bite any heads off. xP
You can also catch me on LJ as wishfics (or wish_wielder) and dA as wish-wielder. (Sensing a pattern yet? xP)
Semi-important notes about the fics:
1. I try my best to keep characters/situations canon.
2. Going with the above, I'm not fond of AU, so I rarely if ever write it.
3. Most claims for thememunities here are unofficial. 'Cause I work better that way (not as stressful).
4. I don't believe in Word's grammar check. It's almost always wrong, and I really don't trust it. (However: I'm pretty good with my grammar, so other than intentional mistakes I'm usually pretty good at catching goof ups.)
5. Spoilers are a guarantee, most likely; I consider anything I know about in a series fair game.
6. I have a disorder 'affectionately' dubbed "Depressing Story-Writing Disorder", or DSWD. Tissue box warnings will be placed in the opening notes whenever DSWD comes into play.
7. If you want to know what characters/pairings I like/ship, just read the fics. I won't list them or justify them or battle with you over why yours is better/mine stinks; the way I see it, we're all fans here, and we all have different likes. We can still get along with differing opinions - if politicians can do it, so can we.
8. All fics are x-posted to my fic journal on Ehl Jay (wishfics). The Doctor Who fics are also x-posted to A Teaspoon and an Open Mind (Whofic.com) under Wish Wielder.
9. Currently I'm writing mostly un-beta'd; occasionally I'll ask the lovely Aku (Give Us A Cuddle on Ehl Jay/the Pit) to beta something for me, but like I said: mostly it's un-beta'd. (However, I am considering looking into recruiting. At the moment, however, I'm still debating this.)
10. Not really about the fics, but I want y'all to know that I do read every review y'all leave. I may not always reply to them (for some reason or another), but I do read them and I'm grateful for 'em. So if I don't say it enough, thanks. Y'all are the best.
"Good writing is supposed to evoke sensation in the reader - not the fact that it's raining, but the feeling of being rained upon." - E.L. Doctorow
