For the first time in over two decades, a non-German manufacturer triumphed in the ADAC 24H-Rennen Nürburgring as the Frikadelli Racing Team topped a 162 lap effort with the 2023 overall victory in their N°30 Ferrari 296 GT3.

Care of Our Feet

by Charles Spurgeon

He will guard the feet of his faithful servants,    but the wicked will be silenced in the place of darkness. “It is not by strength that one prevails; - 1 Samuel 2:9

The way is slippery and our feet are feeble, but the LORD will keep our feet. If we give ourselves up by obedient faith to be His holy ones, He will Himself be our guardian. Not only will He charge His angels to keep us, but He Himself will preserve our goings.

He will keep our feet from falling so that we do not defile our garments, wound our souls, and cause the enemy to blaspheme.

He will keep our feet from wandering so that we do not go into paths of error, or ways of folly, or courses of the world’s custom.

He will keep our feet from swelling through weariness, or blistering because of the roughness and length of the way.

He will keep our feet from wounding: our shoes shall be iron and brass so that even though we tread on the edge of the sword, or on deadly serpents, we shall not bleed or be poisoned.

He will also pluck our feet out of the net. We shall not be entangled by the deceit of our malicious and crafty foes.

With such a promise as this, let us run without weariness and walk without fear. He who keeps our feet will do it effectually.

⚠️Content Warnings: arguments & abandonment issues

Pairing: Luke Alvez/Spencer Reid Words: 680

Summary: “When?” He stops, the two of them standing in their living room, surrounded by little pieces of their life together—Spencer’s books and figurines filling the gaps on Luke’s shelves, pictures of them on birthdays, cases, days off, taking Roxy to the park– “As soon as I can.” “That’s not good enough.” “Spencer, I’m sorry–” “That’s not good enough, Luke. Why aren’t I good enough for you to stay?”

- or, luke has to leave to protect his partner, spencer catches him before he goes

Notes: i really hate having fics less than 1k words but my brain said no so 👍🏽

Spencer gets home 30 minutes early.

“Luke?”

The genius could tell you exactly how many minutes early—probably seconds too—he is, considering how much paperwork he has and factoring in the subway’s standard deviation to provide a more accurate projected arrival time, but for Luke, he’s 30 minutes early.

”Luke? Are you home?“

The first thing he notices is the silence—the lack of sound, no Roxy waiting by the door, tail wagging, waiting for Spencer to drop his bag to greet him–his hand instinctively moving to his hip, fingers finding the familiar weight of his gun.

“Roxy?”

His skin crawls as he creeps through the still apartment, gun drawn as he turns the corner to their bedroom–

“Woah, cariño! Spence!” Luke puts his hands up quickly, Spencer’s shoulders sagging with a sigh when he sees his boyfriend.

“Luke! Jeez, you scared me; why weren’t you answering? And where’s Roxy–”

He stops, shoving his gun in its holster, mouth going dry as his eyes land on a packed duffle bag sitting on their bed, his heart suddenly hammering against his chest, rib cage restricting his lungs.

“You’re leaving?”

He looks up, eyes wide and wet, watching his boyfriend stagger over his words silently, looking for the right thing to say.

“It’s not like that–”

“Where’s Roxy?”

Luke pauses, taken aback by the sudden topic shift, swallowing his anxiety before speaking.

“She’s at her sitters.”

“Why?”

The two agents stand, staring, studying each other, searching their carefully guarded souls, Spencer’s shoulders raised and shaking while Luke’s stance is relaxed, shocked, still processing his partner catching him.

“So you don’t have to worry about taking care of her while I’m away.”

Spencer’s jaw tightens, folding his fingers into fists to keep them from trembling, nails digging into his palms, watching his boyfriend for another minute before turning around and storming out of the room.

“Spencer–”

“What, were you just going to leave before I got home? Disappear without a trace? Abandon me?”

“I’m coming back–”

“When?”

He stops, the two of them standing in their living room, surrounded by little pieces of their life together—Spencer’s books and figurines filling the gaps on Luke’s shelves, pictures of them on birthdays, cases, days off, taking Roxy to the park–

“As soon as I can.”

“That’s not good enough.”

“Spencer, I’m sorry–”

“That’s not good enough, Luke. Why aren’t I good enough for you to stay?”

Luke signs, stepping forward, arms outstretched, desperate to hold his partner, frowning when Spencer steps back.

“It’s not that, cariño; it’s not you, I promise–”

“Then what? What is it? Why can’t you stay?”

“I’m trying to protect you–”

“I don’t need protection, Luke! I just need you!” Spencer shouts, a sob slipping past his lips, resignation– desperation setting in. “Please, Luke; you said you’d never leave me; you promised–”

“I’m not leaving you, Spence–”

“–you lied to me–”

“Spencer–”

“You know who else left to protect someone? Emily, and she died, Hotch, and he never came back, Derek–”

“Spence, please just listen–”

“Give me the letter.”

Luke freezes, frowning, brows furrowed.

“What?”

“You were going to leave before I got home, but you wouldn’t disappear without saying something, without explaining yourself. Where’s the letter, Luke?”

The older agent stares at his partner for another second before sighing, disappearing into their bedroom for a minute before returning with a white envelope, Spencer’s name neatly written on the front.

“That’s it? You were just going to leave me with another note? Just like Gideon and my dad–”

“No, Spencer, let me– Look,” Luke reaches into his pocket, producing an old burner phone. “You can talk to me on that–”

“Seriously? This is all I get?”

“I will keep you updated, and I’ll try to text you at least once a day–”

“Luke–”

“–and I’m sorry, Spence–”

“Luke, please–”

“–but I’m coming back–”

“Go.”

Both men freeze, staring at each other, jaws clenched and eyes wide, silently pleading for forgiveness and understanding or to stay–

“I’ll be here.”

He always is—waiting, the one that’s left behind.

“Go.”

Aww! I’m so glad my Avril Lavigne post is so popular. She’s great, isn’t she? :)

I’ve been reading, writing, and thinking on things most of today. All separate topics sort of, but I’m tired now... brain fried.
