Know Archangel Michael The 1 Archangel most often summoned and most familiar by human beings
In ancient books, it is recorded that "God created the world in seven days, and man was created on the last day". God first created angels, and the first group of angels created by us are called "Seraphs" (the highest-ranking angels in the angel world). From now on, we will collectively refer to the Seraphs as "Archangel". The archangels recorded in ancient books range from 4 to 18, and up to 150. This part will not be discussed, and only the Archangel Michael will be introduced.

Calling on God's Grace
To continue receiving grace, you must know how to pray: 1. Emotional connection The most important thing in prayer is to establish a connection with God. If you don't have a friendly connection with God, all you can say is empty words: "Please help me! Please give me this." This is not prayer. Prayer is like talking to a parent, friend, or someone close. In prayer, emotion is connection. Emotions can be any feeling, whether it's deep heartache, joy, or gratitude, any emotion can connect you to God. If there is emotion in prayer, God will respond quickly. If you have a strong connection with God, He will always be with you .

Inner revolution
In our life, we can always hear complaints, big and small. The fate of injustice, the life of a chicken feathers, but seldom complain after actively seeking to change yourself, then repeating the day before the day to day work and life, once and himself as the starting point of life quality, and the change of time and feel each other is lucky, and envy the fate of the visit, also to the old illusion that fortune comes. But if you think carefully about everything in your life, isn't every unsatisfactory result a result of what you planted? If you want to change the situation, you have to start by focusing on yourself.

The Wise Queen
The King reigned for a very long time. Most of his close relatives had cease. He was on the throne for almost three quarters of a century. He was so prestigious that his advisors and important members of Parliament wanted to know who he would choose as a successor since he had so many immediate family members and his reign was unprecedent. The King asked for time away from major decisions to choose, which was a shock throughout Parliament because in all the years he had reign never did he asked for time away from power. He left his country in the hands of his top advisors and the Prime Minister with Parliament. The King who was up in years and elderly visited every relative that were to in line for the crown, specifically and primarily the top three since he was up in years. The first descendant's family greeted the king with cheerfulness and formality. The King looked for a bit of fresh views and informed decisions. He asked them about what they felt on doing certain tasks. They almost passed but the first descendant did not think independently. The second descendant's family greeted the king with his favorite foods. The King was all delighted and when he asked to see the heir to be. He found she just turned 18 years old. He was concerned whether such power should be given at that age. The third descendant's family was a young family just married three years prior. And they lived philosophy free with wild thoughts and uncanny decision making, And immediately the King refused. The King took another month to rest from his travels and think over his decision. Over time, he begin to really liked the young woman becoming Queen. He thought "a change in perspective, a change in formalities, a change in thought will do these bureaucrats some good." He talked it over with his top advisors and they were firmly bent on choosing a similar successor but the King argued for change, "Enough with formalities, enough with manipulation, enough with foul play. This nation need someone young who can reside like me. Someone daring to try new ideas, someone who can learn the trade and prosper. We may have a lot of problems but a young successor, who is learned and well trained and ambitious, a challenger can lead us forward. And by grace make us last another century or leave a mark for another millennium. And my second descendant can, I know she can. I will bring her before you and important members of Parliament within a week after my initial test." The King asked all of his descendants to his palace in the Capitol on a paid trip. As they looked and toured the palace thoroughly, all were impressed and eager to rule. And when they enter the throne room. The King was on the throne and he commanded the guides to exit. "One of you will sit on my throne. One of you will be the Monarch. Let me tell you what I expect out of my successor. Grace, compassion, independence, ambitious, thoughtfulness, hopefulness, and love of country. I have been on this throne for almost a century. I have loved this country from conception. I am willing to die for it and still willing to die for it. I expect that out of my successor." The first descendant said, "I will do what you did for all these years and showed that I can lean on advisors. They know you and they know the country. We will be strong and continue the work you've done. Your throne will be secured under me." The third descendant said, "I will decide whether they are any good and tell Parliament what to do. I will figured out my own way to leading. I know my ideas are risky but they will paid off. Being King is all about leading and being obeyed." The second descendant said, " I'll rather learn from the King to be Queen. Take his advise and combined it with common knowledge. See if my advisors have better advice then asked Parliament to work together. Unity is what guide us and unity is what builds us. Risky decisions will tear this country apart. And the same decisions only can go so far. We need fresh blood and steady firm hands." Then the King looked directly at his second descendant, glaring saying "You are the one. Pull back the drapes and let the top members of Parliament and my advisors anointed her."

The Good King
There was a land of many castles, each upon a hill. The grandest castles in that part of the world symbolizing the land's greatness. And the glory of that land was the majestic castle and that majestic castle owned by the King. The King who was married, he was a deep thinker. He remembered the words of his predecessor, who was King that "a King knows what a king to do", "a King is what a king becomes", and "a King is a king when decisions arises easily". And he never thought he had to face a day where that was to be true until his country felt tumult. The land went through a famine, farmers search for relief, the famine drew so severe that the land was losing its once beauty and the people were on the verge of fighting each other. So the King called together his ministers and he asked them what to do. They all gave uncanny answers, most were extreme. He then asked his royal advisors who narrowed it down to two or three plans. The King met with his closer advisors and important members of Parliament, they worked overnight for days and finally they could not narrow less than two plans. The plan was to borrow an extreme amount of necessities from allies being in debt or to rational the national input to consolidate debt and partially pay for farmers necessities. A quick thought came to the king, in his heart of heart he was determined and swift and wise. Like a rush of wind, like a keen lion, like a fast eagle, an idea came to him. He first presented it to his advisors then to parliament stating, "We will do both. We will borrow no more than half to conserve debt while curbing the national debt to pay for it and supporting only good farmers with supplies and supplying our families with goods." His advisors were concerned and members of parliament were in a derision but the King stood firm on his decision. He even entreated them that if they have a better plan to bring it forward suggesting that "time is essence and our people need resolutions. Politics will not defer the will for it is of both, earnestly seek and fervently do and I am certain there is no better plan in all the land." And the Prime Minister and Parliament voted supporting the resolution and his advisors were relieved. At first farmers resisted but their starving children and wives convinced them. The King's people were happy within months and months of relief and as a hopeful Spring, the land had a prosperous rainfall. Parliament found the good farmers predicted to increase harvest more than previous years, in expectation they made preparations for them to hire or purchase the bad farmers' land to restore the nation back to its former glory. And they asked the King to convinced the good farmers and cheer up the bad farmers. The King went to the farmers himself and shook the hands of the good farmers and inquire of them to help their neighbors. He drink with them and ate with them. He wanted them to know that a King is flesh and bones, human and good and kind and gracious and a leader to be respected. He wanted to thank them all personally. And finally he wanted to see for himself and reasoned for the good charter between the good farmers and bad farmers. You see a King can be anything, a king can do anything but a good king is loved by his actions, a good king is respected by others, and a good king knows when to be decisive.

Best Quotes from Persuasion
After the catastrophe that was Netflix's new adaptation of Persuasion (read more here), I revisted the novel and found some dog-eared pages with quotes that I adored (I mean if I could I'd probably just dog-ear the whole book- or all of Jane Austen's books).
