Amen!! Pray without ceasing, pray fervently and pray steadfastly. Never stop praying. Prayer works, prayer changes things, prayers set us free, prayers delivers. Prayers heales, prayers fix situations and prayers can change your whole life around. Always keep on praying. God hears, sees, and knows. Your prayers may not be answered when you want but trust and believe it is heard. We just need to be patient on waiting on God's timing. It is not our will but our Father's let His will be done in our lives.🙋‍♀️🙏❤❤

I was facing a huge fear today. I only pulled up Joel Olsteen. This is the 1st video that popped up. I was running away for a few months. I decided to confront my fear. I listened to this video before going to court to turn myself in for tickets. Not only was I released the court is trying to find a way to get everything dismissed. I lost my faith after a nasty divorce. Little by little it's coming back. Thank you. Started with me buying Every Day a Friday didn't know who I bought it for. Turns out for myself. Thank you

[@vusetyl4714]

It is difficult to move on after forgiving. Observing how somebody enjoys what I have always dreamed of doing in profession, life, work is not encouraging. Deprivation seems endless and evil prosperous. Intimidating is so widely used to achieve someone's goals.
