It was definitely something God was trying to tell me. My prayer life needs to improve. It's not just something we do from time-to-time, we need to do it without ceasing. It's about connecting with the one relationship that we so desperately need!

I just saw Will's post about his dad. I'm going to also link to it on Friday. I, too, have wrestled with that subject.

I really like this Joe. I heard a preacher say that we need to throw rocks at God's door. That caught my attention the way he said it......but this is what he mean't.

My heart went out to Will with his last post about his father. I know prayer is important and the Lord works in ways that we can not imagine. When a loved one passes and we are uncertain about their standing before the Lord..........we should always remember that we prayed for them and the Lord desires everyone to be saved. And as you have stated here....He is sovereign!
