Filling the Silence

Take 30 seconds and just listen to your surroundings. Go on, seriously, right where you are, clear your mind and just listen…. For most of us, our lives are filled with noise.

I Don’t Need You Today, God; Importance of Prayer

Recognizing the importance of prayer, going a day without it is like telling God ‘I don’t need you today.’ Wow. As followers of Christ, would we ever want to even think such a thing?
