The Lord Answers Prayer. He REALLY Does.

Jesus was Poor and He Expects Us to Be Too! (you’ll see :) )
Hey Y’all – felt led by the Spirit today to write about Philippians chapter 2, where it comments on some of Jesus’ acts of obedience and how he came unto us as a poor man.

So today, the first thought I have on my mind is temptation. I was thinking a lot about this topic yesterday as I was out for a walk around town, and I ended up penning a song about it just last evening. Lord, please give me Your words for Your children today: those who already … Continue reading
