With more than 1 million without power and more than 600,000 without water in the intense Louisiana heat, many Christian families who have generators or other means of electricity have invited those who are stranded into their homes and are now loving them into Jesus’ arms. “He is sending to us the 25-30-year-old unbelievers,” oneContinue reading “Christians Offer Relief and Love to Hurricane Victims”
Rescue Us, O God. We Need You.
In honor of so many who have died and who continue to face grave danger, we gathered in silent prayer yesterday at this Wall. Our tears have wet the ground where we kneel.

Please, Lord, Calm the Storm
As hurricane Ida gains strength and is expected to make landfall in Louisiana tomorrow, let’s pray for those in its path.

Completely Yours
Several years ago, the Lord led me to begin a new habit. Before I opened my eyes or got out of bed or thought any other thought, I would think on Jesus and hand Him my day. He took me on a long, beautiful journey of surrendering not only every day and plan, but everyContinue reading “Completely Yours”
