When you pray, do you seek His Face or His Arm?

And second, we do not know the power of the forces that assailed him or her.
We also do not

[060]. A MESSAGE FROM A POEM – DO NOT TRUST OURSELVES – TRUST GOD
When you think you know it all:
Then you don't.
When you think you’ll do it all;
Then you won’t.
I find this a delightful poem (for myself) and I am sharing my own experience here in writing it. Often we think we know best

you’re not there because that night was not your
parenting night. (And you won’t even know she had a
bad dream because no one will tell you.)
Divorced life is not having any idea what your

At first I saw God as my observer, my judge, keeping track of the things I did wrong, so as to know whether I merited heaven or hell when I die. He was out there sort of like a president. I recognized his picture when I saw it, but I really didn’t know Him.
