Weekend Whispers :: Job 38:36
Who gives intuition to the heartand instinct to the mind? Job 38:36 NLT It’s really easy sometimes to feel like God has abandoned us.

Hope :: In the Waiting
Growing up, I was always told, “Don’t pray for patience. God will provide lots of opportunities if you ask for it.” So I haven’t prayed for patience in a very long time.
