Prayer = Depending on God
God encourages us: Devote yourselves to prayer, being watchful and thankful. And pray for us, too, that God may open a door for our message, so that we may proclaim the mystery of Christ . . . Col. 4:2-3
Prayer is a way you can be salt and light. God desires for you to talk to Him about what’s going on in your community and workplace and the lives of your colleagues and neighbors.
