I'm back from the 5 day seminar and am pleased to report that it was a huge success. A lot of twists and turns occurred but nonetheless, it was all possible by the grace of God and your generous donations.

The things we look at draw us nearer to them. A sprinter stares right in front of him because he knows as soon as he looks to the left or the right, that is the direction he will go. Paul gives us 3 tests in Galatians 6 to make sure we are seeing straight.

Jesus calls us to prayer that workers may be sent into the harvest. However, what you will likely find is that you are that worker he is sending, and these verses contain everything he's calling you to do.

4 words, each with unique meaning, are used by Paul at the beginning of 1 Tim 2 exhort us on how to prayer. The order of these words is intentional, their meanings are nuanced, and by understanding them we will have a deeper prayer life.

The Lord's Prayer beings with the famous phrase, "Our Father". This reminds us of an important relationship with we have with God as His children. The rest of the prayer, takes us deeper on that journey.
