Hey, I don't get on here very often, but I wanted to share something.  Last night I went to a prayer and Bible study that some of the ladies in our neighborhood share.  We share what's going on in life, pray, and share scriptures.  Last night, when we prayed, we all joined together in prayer out loud for the various things that were on our mind and hearts.  What a strange and wonderful noise it was to hear many people's voices all at once praying to God for different things.  When we were finished, we all began to share scriptures that we felt led to share and it was as though God was talking back to us, speaking to us through His word!  And that's when it hit me.  This is why we do what we are doing.  All over the world, there are people - some who may have even heard of Christ and call on His name, but they don't have His word in a language they understand for God to talk back to them in, to strengthen, reassure, sustain, and forgive them.  That's why we are doing what we do, so that we can share what we have been freely given by our gracious Lord through His son.  May His peace fill you and surround you this day.
