Grieving That Which Only Seems to be Lost

Taking Proper Care of Ourselves

Praying for Others
Worship Service: Sermon only - September 18, 2016
Our prayers are a reflection of our hearts. Therefore, if we are concerned because another person is feeling some type of pain, we might be inspired by the Lord to pray for them.

Instead, our prayers are simply expressions of our love. And love, we are told, can have amazingly positive effects, even when those affects are not immediately obvious. | By Rev. Garry B.
