Lessons From Jeremiah – Part 8 – National Evils Are Widespread – Murder, Injustice, No Repentance, Delusion Series

Asking Both Kings For The Wall

Contributed by Joseph Smith on Feb 15, 2010

For every significant task, there is the "sit-down" approach and the "rise-up" approach. We need both to sit down and pray and then to rise up and do, but even then by involving the resources of others. Lone wolves are not appropriate.

When a big challenge faces you, essentially there are only two things you can do about it: You can rise to the challenge. Or you can sit down and ignore it. When there is a big task to be done, I am saying, there are two entirely different ways to approach it. There is the rise up approach and ...read more

The Restoration Of Hope

It’s wishing, not hoping: and wishing and hoping are not the same thing. "Wishing," Peterson says, "is something all of us do. It ...read more
