DRAWING CIRCLES--- AUDACIOUS PRAYER

“Prayer is so powerful. Prayer is simply talking to God. Open up your heart. His love never fails and NEVER gives up. He will keep all of His promises for hope and a future.” Mickayla Josephine <3

I love it! Mickayla’s words are simple but so true! (And based on 1 Cor. 13, Hebrews 6:12, & Jeremiah 29:11)—This girl has the WORD in her heart- <3 Thanks for the encouragement and inspiration Mickayla!

Prayer is as simple as just talking to God. Opening up from our heart, and even deeper our soul…

Pastor Becky (ECC) said yesterday at Bible study, “Pray from your soul, not from your head”

She gave a great example of a simple grace prayer before a meal.

Head prayer: “ Dear God, please bless our food and the people who made it, amen”

VS.

SOUL Prayer: “Precious Heavenly Father, Thank you so much for who you are, Lord please bless the time we have with these people as we share a meal together, Lord bless this food and the hands who prepared it, and be glorified in our conversation and in this home always, In Jesus Name, Amen”

It’s not necessarily that one is right and one is wrong.

This is an exhortation to expand your prayer life. How many times have you just “Talked at God” ?

You see, prayer IS as simple as talking to God… But it is also much more complex.

Prayer is the most intimate contact we have with THE LIVING GOD of the Universe! … Prayer is quite amazing if you fully understand and grasp it’s power.

In the Old Testament (before Jesus came to bridge the gap) – the people couldn’t talk with God (notice I said WITH)… Oh I’m sure God could probably hear them- He’s God… but the prophets were the only ones who could hear from God… After Jesus came- He became to us, a DIRECT LINE TO THE HOLIES…. I mean- someone who will be tortured, beaten, bruised, broken, bleeding, and then die for you- That’s pretty intense! … And it comes with some equally INTENSE PRIVELAGES!

Including PRAYER…

{Prayer is our DIRECT COMMUNICATION to God…}

I want you to understand it’s vitality.

Imagine a marriage. At first, the husband and wife are crazy for each other, they can’t stop calling and texting each other during the work day, If they are apart they are talking to each other all night, falling asleep on the phone together, and they CANT HARDLY WAIT to just WAKE UP IN THE MORNING and get to talk again! They may lay awake at night or in the morning thinking of how LUCKY they are to have this special ‘perfect’ person in their lives. How could they be so blessed?

They think of all of the adventures they will go on. They can’t wait to be told how WONDERFUL the other person thinks they are and to tell them, themselves! …

After a while, it begins to fade. Soon they come and go without speaking to each other much. Just maybe a goodbye in the morning, a hello in the evening, and maybe a phone call through the day to complain about something the other didn’t do. . . They’ve become complacent. Lazy. Disinterested. And they probably blame the other person for not fulfilling everything they once did. When really they should be asking themselves when they gave up. Marriage is something worth fighting for.

And this is equally true for prayer. You see God didn’t send His only Son to DIE for you- so you could simply “go to heaven”. God intended for us to be in constant FELLOWSHIP, or RELATIONSHIP from the beginning! It’s what He created us for! To be in a constant MUTUAL, BACK AND FORTH (not just forth)… relationship WITH HIM!

You are missing the intimacy and the WONDERFUL POWER of prayer if you are simply “talking at God” … He IS speaking BACK! He IS answering! … The question is are you listening?

{**God doesn’t answer vague prayers**}

(if its vague how can you be sure He’s answered it or not?)

My prayer life has grown over time. Everybody’s evolves and grows, probably for their entire life.

Somehow, either we aren’t taught fully about prayer, or we have a skewed view from an experience or from someone else’s opinion.

{Oftentimes we think these things:}

-         Prayer is a one way street- If I’m lucky- God will hear me – and He might answer or not

-         God is too busy to hear me

-         My prayer isn’t as important as that person’s prayer

-         God doesn’t care about the little things like helping me get good grades, helping me find a job, or getting that awesome parking spot that I want.

-         I haven’t prayed long enough

-         I don’t pray “good” enough

-         God didn’t answer my last prayer- so He doesn’t care about me

-         God doesn’t answer prayers

-         I have to be good before I can ask God for anything

It could go on and on. But I must tell you that every single one of those thoughts is a LIE… It’s a FLAT OUT LIE… if you have thought any of them- CLAIM IT DEAD- AND A LIE IN JESUS NAME…

If you look in God’s WORD that’s NOT who He is! That’s NEVER what He says!

If these are some of the thoughts you have had, I pray you would get a NEW REVELATION of the LOVE that God has for you… Until you begin to understand His LOVE for you, you may never understand WHY prayer and HOW prayer can be so intimate or why you’d even want to have that relationship with God…

Jesus died for you. So that you could have LIFE AND LIFE ABUNDANTLY (John 10:10)

I can attest in my own life, that God DOES care about the little things JUST AS MUCH as the big things!

The Lord has challenged me this past year to really stretch my faith.

This may sound silly to you, but I have and DO ask God to provide for me things like, a cup of coffee.

When I ask I believe that I receive (1 John 5:14-15)  And what happened this week when I asked for coffee?

Not only (just yesterday) Did I receive a gift card from a friend equal for 2 specialty coffee’s- but I also then was taken out for coffee by another friend who insisted on paying!

God is good. And He DOES care about the seemingly “small” things.

Matthew 7:11 “ If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children, how much more will your Father in Heaven give good things to them that ask him?”

{My challenge is this:}

Pray AUDACIOUS prayers. This requires God’s divine intervention & allows Him most glory!

When I say pray AUDACIOUS- I mean to pray SPECIFICALLY… It takes WAY more COURAGE to pray specifically than it does to pray vaguely. If I pray for a cup of coffee- and I get a cup of coffee- I KNOW it’s GOD who gave it to me! (x 3 by the way! God ALWAYS multiplies! And goes ABOVE AND BEYOND what I can ask think or imagine!)  (Ephesians 3:20)

If I pray for healing from cancer I must follow what the Book of James says:

“But let him ask in FAITH, NOTHING WAVERING. For he that (continues to) waver is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed (all around). Don’t let that man think that he will receive ANYTHING of the Lord. A double minded man is unstable in all his ways.” (James 1:6-8)

** {WOAH… James didn’t mess around! I love it! Embrace it! And if you are worried about your faith read my blog about “The Mustard Seed”- Its all about faith! And I pray it will increase yours! } **

{SEEK GOD MORE THAN YOU SEEK HIS ANSWERS}

Another place we can fall short is we tend to seek God’s ANSWERS MORE than we seek GOD HIMSELF…

It’s a part of us being a fallen people. To be selfish. But again, if we are missing this, We must re-evaluate our understanding of our relationship with our Creator. It’s easy to get caught up in just wanting to see the result, wanting our prayer answered WHEN and HOW we want. And we can be very “need driven” … When we are faced with a hardship we turn to God to FIX IT… NOW! (please)…  This can be our attitude. . .

When our heart should be to seek to KNOW HIM MORE. He WANTS to be sought. God tells us to “Draw close to me and I will draw close to you”… (James 4:8)

God doesn’t FORCE His perfect love upon us. He wants to know that we care, and we WANT to know Him… He gives us a choice… and to take that step forward toward Him is the best decision you can ever make.

{THE LEGEND OF HONI} 

All of my thoughts on prayer have been inspired by God and His Word and through others. Initially it was when I heard Pastor Becky talk about the book “The Circle Maker”.

I haven’t read the book yet, but I’m going to. So I will tell a very brief summary of what I’ve heard.

The legend of the circle maker came from old Rabbi stories. Honi lived the generation before Jesus came. The last of the prophets died 4 generations earlier. So no one was hearing from God at this time and there was a massive drought. . . Honi had determination to SEE GOD MOVE--- He KNEW God could still hear him--- so he became bold.

He took his 6 foot staff and drew a circle in the dirt completely around himself. He dropped to his knees and prayed by the power of the prophet Elijah and told God that he would NOT MOVE until it rained. He didn’t ask wavering. He asked with AUTHORITY not a HINT of doubt… this prayer didn’t originate from the vocal chords. It came from the soul. He asked God for rain and it began to drizzle. Honi told God he was not satisfied and asked for more rain. It began to pour. He then explained he wanted a calm rain, at which point the rain became normal.

Some may look at Honi (and did) as disrespectful to God. How could you DARE demand of God? But this is called, in the Greek, “aiteo” kind of prayer. To ask or demand… to dwell, continue and remain in constant union with …

Honi’s example should be an inspiration. Especially because we TOO have a special relationship with God because of what Jesus did. Now it is more accessible!

We must pray: Specifically, with Authority, and with Expectancy that God will answer!

Remember that God is God. And He will give you the answer that is the BEST for your life. It may not manifest how you think it should look. But do not doubt God…. He will answer. 

IN HOT PURSUIT

{VEHEMENT PURSUIT}

There is one thing I’m sure of today. God passionately….. I mean- PASSIONATELY pursues us… sometimes we blind ourselves from it- but He is vehemently in pursuit of our hearts on the daily.

Because I have asked Him to- I hear Him more clearly today and I know He has a message for you, who is reading this.

{MY AWAKENING} 

I awoke this morning with condemnation looming over my head from my sins. (check yourself- if you aren’t convicted (not condemned) of sin- its time to soften your heart)

The condemnation was weighing on my heart. But my true Hero Jesus was right there, ready to pierce the darkness of condemnation and slay it where it stood.

Holy Spirit quickened in my heart and empowered me from within. I knew I needed to get up and pray. My son then (3 years old) came in my room very early crying and I could tell his throat was dry and soar from his coughing.

The one who condemns was telling me it was my fault. My sin had caused my child to be in pain. I see now I should’ve begun my battle at that point and rebuked those disgusting lies immediately. But instead God led me to my closet to pray.

I anointed myself with oil and said a prayer of consecration and healing to myself and then did the same for my son. I then rebuked any so called sickness and claimed it gone in Jesus name.

The Lord kept putting a verse in my mind—“ There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus who walk not after the flesh but after the Spirit”  Romans 8:1

Jesus did NOT come to condemn the world- but to set it free and save it (John 3:17)

So I knew that although I felt condemned, Jesus was telling me ‘It has already been covered by My Blood’ … I believed Him.

{WALKING IN CONDEMNATION?}

He then showed me several other passages this morning and I believe He is trying to get a point across to me, that I will do my best to reiterate to you.

He first showed me Luke 6:37-38

Judge not and you shall not be judged condemn not and you shall not be condemned; forgive and you shall be forgiven:

Give and it shall be given to you; good measure pressed down and shaken together and running over shall men give into your bosom. For with the same measure that you use it will be measured back to you.

Now I didn’t know why this verse was speaking to me today but I knew it was important. When I read it again I realize that God is so simply saying that whatever we dish out we will get back the same measure of that thing. Good or bad. Which is why He starts by saying not to judge, condemn, nor walk in unforgiveness.

This verse was fitting since I was feeling condemnation from the enemy this morning. It got me thinking about judgment and to make sure not only that I do not judge others but that I do not judge or condemn myself. That is not to say that I don’t hold myself accountable or examine my heart. But like I said earlier: condemnation is much different than conviction. Condemnation slanders you and gives you a hopeless feeling of never being enough. Conviction is the inward inkling that guides your right vs. wrong meter. It is like an alarm system that goes off in your spirit that says hmm, maybe I shouldn’t do this, say this, watch this, listen to this etc. As a Christian our conviction should continually reach new heights as we grow in our daily walk. We should never be satisfied or settling for where we are but always hunger and thirst for more of God, to have more of Him in our lives, to hear more from Him, and to BE more like Him. If we are not pursuing this, we are blinded and it leads me into the next thing The Lord showed me this morning.

{HEART SCAN}

As I was on my knees praying for my son as he lay asleep in my bed I felt like I needed to look down and make sure I had something. I picked up my devotional “My Utmost for His Highest” – Oswald Chambers- a wonderful daily devotional. I brought it with me. When I got to my daily ‘coffee spot’ I read today’s entry : March 16: The Master Will Judge—2 Cor. 5:10 “ We must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ”

A theme? We will see.

Chambers goes on to say we should walk in the knowledge of the holiness He has given us. Tolerating a wrong attitude toward another person or carnal judgment of another person only serves the enemy’s purpose in our lives. He encourages us to bring it immediately into the light and confess it as sin, because if we don’t our hearts will become hardened. He goes on to say that one of the penalties of sin is our acceptance of it, we gradually get used to it until we don’t even realize that it’s sin. The deadliest attitude of the Pharisees that we portray today is not hypocrisy but unconsciously living a lie.

As I observed these first two words of my day, I began to run a “heart scan”. Lord who have I judged or condemned? Including myself. I think it’s just the same if I judge myself or condemn myself, as it is another person. How dare I inflict that on God’s child, I am His and HE HAS PAID FOR MY SINS.

All Jesus wants from me is to LIVE IN THE LIGHT… Jesus is saying STOP JUDGING AND CONDEMNING YOURSELF- AND JUST REPENT- AND SIN NO MORE!

Its that simple. Jesus is saying to my heart, ‘ Oh, you see its wrong? Don’t waste time beating yourself up- just STOP doing it- and move on’

{WHAT GOD PROMISES}

Then I turned to Jeremiah. This is where His promises came alive to me today.

Jeremiah 31:25: For I have satiated the weary soul and I have replenished every sorrowful soul. . . . just below that in verse 31-34 I will paraphrase. God says: Behold the day has come that I will make a new covenant with my people. . . I will put my law in their inward parts, and write it in their hearts and I will be their God and they shall be my people. They shall know me (an intimate kind of knowing- not just knowing who He is), from the least to the greatest, because I will forgive their wickedness, and I will NOT remember there sin.

WOW… This is in the OLD TESTAMENT. It was a prophecy of what Jesus would do on Calvary. Did you know that? God doesn’t even REMEMBER your sin. Because the BLOOD OF JESUS COVERS YOU COMPLETELY when you receive what He did for you on the cross. So NOW you are NOT condemned but you are made RIGHTEOUS in Christ! Wow, God is just confirming this to me today, He doesn’t see my sin. He sees Jesus. And who He has created me to be in Him, and where I’m going.

Another section in Jeremiah 32: 17-19- Jeremiah says (again in paraphrase) WOW LORD! You made heaven and earth by your great power! NOTHING is too hard for you! You show loving kindness to your people and you give everyone according to their ways and the fruit of their doings. (just like the verse about a good measure pressed down shaken together and running over).

Finally in Jer. 32: 39-41

God says “I will give them one heart, one way that they will respect me forever for their good and their children’s good. I will make a covenant that lasts forever and I will not turn away from them, but put a fear (reverence) in their hearts so they won’t depart from me. I will plant them in the land with my whole heart and with my whole soul.

{A CHALLENGE FOR YOU}

God is PASSIONATLEY PURSUING YOU.

 My friend shared a quote with me last week. “God loves you just the way you are, but He loves you TOO much to let you stay that way”

My friend, if you are not in a place where you feel a conviction in your heart about some area of your life, I pray you would ask God to soften your heart. Don’t be deceived. We are NEVER perfect until we are taken HOME. DO NOT SETTLE.

God is ready to take you to the next level, but it takes surrender on your part. STOP judging others for their sins, and DON’T condemn yourself. BUT EXAMINE YOUR HEART.

Where are you falling short of the awesomeness of Christ? Start at the first thing that just popped into your head. God wants to deal with it now. Don’t ignore it, don’t run. Embrace it. Its much easier to embrace the change God wants to place in your life, than ignoring the God of the Universe passionately pursuing after your heart to belong to HIM.

When we begin to do good to others and through ourselves as a FREE people (not a condemned people) then God will be able to bless us more because we wont be measuring with condemnation or judgment.

Make sure the seeds you sow (which aren’t just financial) are GOOD seeds. Into your own life, and into the lives of others. What you put in you’ll get out! And it MULTIPLIES.

I encourage you to be watchful of the things you say, the things you partake in, the things you watch, listen to, and think over the next 24 hours. If anything makes you feel “icky”. If anything makes you think that God might not “smile” while partaking in these things or thoughts with you. If anything is negative, or just plain AGAINST what and who GOD IS…. Write it down. And STOP IT. It’s time we turn it up a notch if we really want to be the beacons of light in the world we are called to be.

This world needs HOPE, and it wont have it with a bunch of dirty vases walking around blindly wallowing in their own MIRE of sin.

If God convicted you once about a matter and yet you aren’t convicted anymore. Your heart is hardened. And I pray right now that anyone who is reading this would have their hearts softened, no matter how soft or hard their hearts are. That God would be faithful to gracefully convict people in the next area He wants to cleanse. That by HIS KINDNESS He would lead you into repentance.

{A QUICK STORY OF ENCOURAGEMENT AS I FINISH:}

 

A women’s Bible study read the verse: Malachi 3:3 : And He (GOD) will sit as a refiner and purifier of sliver and He shall purify and purge His children as gold and silver that they may offer unto the Lord an offering in righteousness.

Questions began to arise. Why? Why silver and gold? What is so significant about comparing refining us to refining precious metals? So one woman (without telling him the purpose of her curiosity) called a Silver Smith; she asked if she could come and watch the process of refining silver. He also didn’t ask why she wanted to see the process, but welcomed her to come and observe.

First he had to heat the silver. He had to hold the metal right in the MIDDLE OF THE FIRE, where it was HOTTEST… He explained that only when it was hottest would it BURN AWAY ITS IMPURITIES.

The woman began to understand…

As she watched she noticed the man sat in front of the fire intently. She asked if he really had to sit there the whole time. He explained that indeed he HAD to sit in front of the fire and WATCH the precious metal. He in fact could NOT take his eyes off of it or it would be destroyed if it were in the fire a moment too long. . . She asked how he could possibly know when it was ready? He replied that it was easy, it is refined when he sees HIS image in it.

WOO! God is SO good. He is PASSIONATELY PURSUING YOU.

He wants to refine you. He will take you through the fire, but he WILL NOT leave your side, and HE WILL NOT take His gaze from you. When He sees His image is when we become purified.

Don’t fight the fire. Embrace it. 

A Mustard Seed

You can think of this in two ways:
 1) All it takes is a little faith
2) If we would have ANY FAITH AT ALL, we would see miracles unfold

The problem is more times than not our DOUBT, FEAR, PRIDE, or our own human REASONING etc, tends to overshadow our tiny mustard seed of faith.... and most of the time those things not only overshadow your faith, but they nullify it.

------------------------------------------------
{JESUS COMPARES FAITH TO A SEED}
------------------------------------------------

There are two places Jesus himself compares FAITH to a grain of mustard seed. This is not a simple metaphor, there is great significance to his symbolism. God never does anything without purpose. I'll get into significance in a moment, but first I want to take a look at these scriptures..
The first example is in Matthew 17 (14-20). The disciples are trying to cast a devil out of a young boy who was "lunatick". He was literally going crazy, uncontrollably trying to burn himself to death and drown himself to death. The son's father came to the disciples but they could not cast it out. So the father went to Jesus and asked Him to help.
The first thing out of Jesus' mouth was, "O FAITHLESS and PERVERSE generation, how long shall I be with you? How long shall I suffer you? Bring him to me."
A rebuke was the first thing out of God's heart. Jesus has been with them years, showing them the power of God that THEY TOO possessed, and even they practiced already, YET, they still found themselves in a situation where their faith was gone. Or at least overshadowed by doubt, fear, etc.

Jesus rebuked the devil and it left the boy, the child was cured immediately. Then the disciples took Jesus aside and asked him why they couldn't do what he just so easily did. Jesus answered and said, "Because of your UNBELIEF. . ."
UNBELIEF... that would be the opposite of FAITH. They just simply didn't really believe in their heart of hearts that they could do the great task...
Jesus continued, "For truly I say to you, if you have FAITH (that is living) like a grain of mustard seed, you can say to this mountain, move from here to there and it will move; and NOTHING WILL BE IMPOSSIBLE TO YOU."

Now, when GOD Himself says "Verily, verily", or "truly I say to you"... that is a prep for "LISTEN UP... what I'm about to say is TRUEST OF TRUE and you NEED to apply this"

----------------------------------------------------
{ACTIVATE AND INCREASE YOUR FAITH}
----------------------------------------------------

So, when we examine the above statements, many of us are filled with fear, doubt, or unbelief. It is our responsibility to ACTIVATE and then INCREASE our FAITH.

Faith is like a muscle, you need to work it out. You need to exercise it and make it stronger. The disciples even asked God to give them an added measure of faith, increase their faith, and help their unbelief! This is a prayer I practice daily. I will pray for increased faith until the day I die, I never want to settle, I always want to be taken to the next level!

And God doesn't leave us in the dark on how to activate and increase our faith. Because faith comes by hearing the Word of God over and over and letting it take root into your heart. And to increase your faith, it must be PRACTICED. How do you practice faith? Take note of what the disciples did. You WALK OUT faith DAILY. Faith isn't JUST hope. Its SUBSTANCE of hope. Faith isn't wishing for things to come true, its EVIDENCE of things that haven't happened yet. So it is basically a MANIFESTATION of our belief. What are some small things you can manifest through faith? Tangible or intangible?
You can start with something small like a cup of coffee, or hearing from a friend you haven't heard from in a while, maybe something beautiful in nature that you desire like a beautiful sunrise, snow, or a rainbow. Maybe something like provision from God financially. Start where your belief activates. $5? $20? maybe it's much larger. But you must locate your current faith. And I challenge you to begin to TEST YOUR FAITH... Write it in a journal. Ask God for something SPECIFIC. Something believable for you. Write the date and time you ask. Believe that you receive it. (Because if we have unbelief- we know the results we will get right?) ... Now the enemy WILL come and try and discourage you with thoughts of doubt, unbelief, human reasoning etc. You wrote it down so that when thoughts of doubt come you can look back and say "NOPE! I WILL NOT DOUBT... I ASKED FOR IT- and I RECEIVE IT!" ...
Because Jesus says MULTIPLE times, whatever we ask for WE WILL RECEIVE IT. .... He didn't say "we might"... or "sometimes you will" ... or "if you pray hard enough"... or "if you are good enough" ... NOPE.... We WILL receive it. When you start small and locate your level of faith, and WHEN you see God answer a small desire of your heart (because HE DOES care about them!) your FAITH WILL INCREASE! Continue to test God in this! He WANTS you to increase your faith- and this is something He has challenged me in recently- We have to understand, God is a GOOD Father, He even says in His Word, if our earthly father's want to give good gifts to us, how much MORE does HE want to give!? He LONGS to give us ALL of the desires of our hearts! THE PROBLEM IS ON OUR END! If we are not receiving, we need to check our faith level. If you are honest enough you will know if there is doubt clouding your heart. That is not to say God doesn't ask us to wait sometimes, and sometimes He will bring something better in our lives. But remember, Jesus said NOTHING WILL BE IMPOSSIBLE to us! He also said we would do GREATER things than He did!

----------------------------------
{WHY A MUSTARD SEED??}
----------------------------------

Many other plants and vegetables cannot be planted around other types of plants or vegetables. They are affected by what they are planted by. For example if you plant a tomato next to a jalapeno you will get a hot tomato etc. However, a MUSTARD SEED can be planted around ANYTHING, it will NOT be affected by it's surroundings.

It isn't so dependent upon how small or large our mustard seed (Faith) is, but how we are affected by our surroundings. Do we let the seed of doubt infect our mustard seed faith? Do we let our seed of fear, or seed of human logic / reasoning infect our seed of faith? Faith should be unmovable, unshakable, and unaffected by what it is planted by, it's surroundings, or anything that could corrupt it from growing into a beautiful healthy tree. 

------------------------------------------------------
{FUN FACTS ABOUT THE MUSTARD PLANT}
------------------------------------------------------

*It has a SPICE / FLAVOR
*It has HEALING properties for a number of alements
*It is known as a CRUCIFEROUS plant because of the four petals (2 long, 2 short) that resemble a CROSS! haha- how crazy is that?!

There are also mustard trees that grow almost as wide as they are tall. Creating a shelter for birds and other animals, and having it's roots deeply and firmly planted in the ground.

The Mustard Tree can grow in almost any climate, they are found all over the world.
------------------
{APPLYING}
------------------

Our FAITH really can and should be likened to a mustard seed. It can GROW into a beautiful, healing, flavorful flower bearing the cross of Jesus Christ. It can grow into a DEEPLY rooted tree providing shelter from doubt, fear, or other fiery darts from the enemy.
FAITH IS ALIVE. And it CAN GROW in any climate! We CAN and SHOULD be unaffected by our surroundings!

It is time for us to take our SEED of FAITH that God has given us. PLANT IT DEEP in our hearts, and NURTURE it with the WORD of God. and TEST IT!

Remember... IF WE WOULD JUST HAVE ANY FAITH AT ALL- We would see MIRACLES like Jesus SAID WE WOULD--
Don't let the perversion of this world, doubt, fear, or your own futile human reasoning overshadow your seed of faith!

Looking forward to hearing about your FAITH JOURNEYS!!
