     | 4,714 views

    The prayer of Jabez has been used by many people over the centuries to seek a special blessing from God. To pray like Jabez, it's important for us to surrender our lives to God, trusting Him with everything we have, so that He can leave His mark through us for future generations.

    Contemplative Prayer

    Contributed by Jerry Cosper on May 10, 2022
     | 1,679 views

Two weeks ago, we spent some time talking ...read more
