I've not ever seen this challenge. Seventy-eight words! The concept of writing about God while not naming a particular religion and avoiding the "common" fallback words while inserting the mandated ones seems like quite a task. Not to worry. You did it!

Yes, so many rules about what you must include and must not include as well as word length. I remember it being a challenge. Such a lovely review - thank you. Wendy

This was a quite complex set of parameters! You made it seem spontaneous and not formulaic at all?
Comment from Sandra Stoner-Mitchell
Congratulations on your well deserved win, Wendy, I think it's non-fiction, and well told, too. You used the words you were allowed to have in your story, and actually came up with a wonderful message. Not forced, and made so much good sense. Well done! :) Sandra

Thank you Sandra! Great review. I entered because I have an objection to people writing "fiction" about God which distorts His character. So I write the truth as I see it, but acknowledge that it may be classified as fiction by some people. I am glad you appreciated it and knew it as truth as well.

Congratulations on winning this prompt. Within the framework of its convoluted rules, you have delivered the simplicity of belief in God and its determination of our destiny.

Thanks so much. I still question myself about entering, but I feel it is deceitful to tell lies about God's character under the guise of "fiction", and I wanted to make a point. I appreciate your review.

This seventy-eight-word story, Father, uses all the words, does all the other stuff, and magnifies the power and presence an Almighty God.

Comment from LJbutterfly
There are many names that describe God. You have adequately described three of the most popular, beginning with the prefix "omni," meaning "all, every, or whole." To me, the most important is Omnipotent. Depending on our earthly choices, God determines our eternal fate. Best wishes in the contest.

Comment from Rosemary Everson1
You are so correct in stating that God is everywhere. I think you also like writing about him in your stories. I for one like telling and explaining about the things He does for His people.
