    Just like Mary, we are chosen to be dwelling places for God. However, we often face obstacles of unworthiness, unbelief, and unwillingness that hinder the Holy Spirit's work in our lives.

    In the Bible, Luke tells us that the Holy Spirit did something amazing in Mary. She became pregnant with Jesus, even though she was a virgin. She was just a regular girl, but she became the mother of Jesus. That's like pulling a rabbit out of a hat, right? And just like Mary, God wants to do ...read more

    We are taught to pray for every thing in all situations. But not everyone prays the same way. Ultimately the how you pray is up to you and your relationship with the Heavely Father.
