We all have our own agenda. We want certain things, and God even invites us to pray very specifically, right? 

The weight of the darkness can be suffocating. Until the Light of the World reveals Himself, and you believe.

Your might is incomparable. With a mere thought, You can create. I can’t even fathom it. I am small and weak. Yet, in my weakness I feel Your strength. You bring comfort and peace, and I trust in You.

Our Father has placed us in a field ripe for harvest. It’s time to get our hands dirty!

Be strong and take heart for the Lord is my light and my salvation.

Don’t put your trust in mere people, or in the things of this world that will fade away. The only place to put your trust is in the hands of the One who deserves it. He will never fail.

“Be crafted into something new.” (Colossians 3:1-11) It starts with an idea. In the designer’s skilled hands, the raw materials begin to take shape. The process is sometimes messy and time consuming, but it is necessary. The transformation process creates something useful, something beautiful, something new.

We prepare to pray, yet our minds wander and every distraction is magnified. That’s when we simply bow our hearts and say, “Lord, teach us to pray!”
