Into the peace of Thy sheltering fold,
Ever Thy glorious face to behold,
Jesus, I come to Thee.”
I love reading all of your “gifts”! What a blessing!
I especially love 287.
As I have become more of a prayer warrior, and really built my relationship around Jesus with lots of prayer, praying in groups, along with people telling me they are praying for me, has become so much more meaningful!
When friends are going before the most powerful Throne ever, carrying our burdens and cares to the One who loves us so much, taking the time to life up our names, it is so powerful and special and so full of love!
I have grown so much in thankfulness to that.
Which then leads me to pray for others, and TELL them I’m praying!
I just had to say that I think it’s wonderful that your Mom is reading a story to Christian over Skype. What a wonderful way to keep in touch!
