Over the next three weeks,
- Pray that GOD would speak life into your troubled heart. Ask that He would help you to live alive, being fully surrendered to His determined will. Draw fully from His peace, fully from His strength and fully from His goodness. Seek His counsel in all things. Request that He would liberate you from your burdens, woes, shame, guilt, unrest, and sin. Look to Him as the forgiving Redeemer that He is.
