Is it amazing faith, or hope, or love? Or all?
I can't stop crying when I read this passage in Job. The extend of his sorrow, I can't even imagine...By all appearances God was doing this to him and refused to answer his prayers, his family (or…

I soooo love the example of Abraham praying for the Lord to spare the righteous in Sodom! It gives me so much courage to go to God in prayer with things that might seem against the grain. God was right…
