                    A. W. Tozer prayed a prayer that I can identify with. Perhaps it resonates with you as well. Here is the first part of his prayer.
“O God, I have tasted Thy goodness, and it has both satisfied me and made me thirsty for more. I am painfully conscious of my need for further grace. I am ashamed of my

                    A bit of an aside, I can remember when I have pulled a few all night jobs out of necessity back in my power distribution days when a fault would require repairing, nothing like a 24 plus hour day to exhaust you.

ALL the ruthless Ninevites from the commoner to the King of Assyria repented and God did not send destruction. But why did these ruthless people listen to Jonah who was just one man? I have been struggling with this very question and asked God to help me speak to you

                    Are You Prepared To Meet God?
What Christ Has Done
A preacher was called to the bedside of a man who was seriously ill. After a few words of greeting, the minister asked, "My friend, are you prepared to meet God if you don't recover from this sickness?"
 
"I think so," was the reply. "I've always

                    [101].  A MESSAGE FROM A POEM – GOD OF SMALL THINGS
Some people like to think big.  There is this fallacy that big is better, especially in the American culture.  God does not work with big.  He uses availability, particularly in His children.
I once preached on this topic showing that God uses
