Pray without ceasing,
don’t you ever stop
pray, I say pray . . .
’til on your knee you drop.
Never give up,
never you let go
the answer is coming
the way God will show.
Pray without end,
pray without doubt
pray, I say pray . . .
as God works things out.
Pray laying down,
pray while standing
pray for peace
beyond understanding.
God has the solution,
it’s coming your way
pray, I say pray . . .
be it all night or day!

I haven’t seen a Praying Mantis in years. My grandmother I think raised them! They were all over her gardens. I loved watching them but at the same time they scared me. Weird looking little critters they are. ~ Blessings ~

Yes, that is a Praying Mantis . . . funny looking creature they are but so good for the garden and eating all the bugs. I don’t see them at all here in our state, but did years ago in California. Have a great Sunday what time is church? ~ Blessings ~

“Living room” church (online) starts on Saturday at 2pm and 3:45pm (Gateway Church in Texas)–there are 5 or 6 service times through the weekend, and I usually do both Sat’s, and maybe one more on Sunday. Sundays at noon, I also go to Singapore for New Creation Church with Joseph Prince–the “radical grace” preacher! There’s a 2nd service at 5pm. So I’m one of those “every time the doors are open” church folks. I take notes, and it’s easy to miss a point here or there.

Do you have comcast if so what stations are they? How do you like Joseph Prince, I have heard of him, seen him, but have not listened to him. What are your thoughts and what is radical grace??

The full services aren’t carried on TV (yes I have Comcast)–they’re online: Gatewaypeople.com (I think) and Joseph Prince Ministries. Pastor Robt Morris of Gateway has the “Blessed Life” series on TV–check your listing for Daystar programs. Joseph Prince is all over the TV, in 30-min messages: Daystar, TBN, and a bunch more at different times. God has used both of these Bible teachers since Mar 2011 to speed up my learning–and Joseph Prince is SO encouraging, you can’t listen to him and not get built up. Everyday God speaks a specific word to me through his messages–he really invites folks into the Joy and freedom of following Christ, and out of the bondage of “church-ianity” as he calls it. I think the “radical” part comes from a lot of his critics, who call him a “grace preacher”–as though that’s something bad or unscriptural. I can promise you that everything he says, he backs up with scripture–plus plenty of Hebrew and Greek lessons, history, etc. He’s fabulous, and LOVES JESUS; very enthusiastic and entertaining; and speaks from a wonderful intimacy with God. I watch several times a day to get fed!
