Quote for the week:
Complacency is a deadly foe of all spiritual growth. Acute desire must be present or there will be no manifestation of Christ to His people. He waits to be wanted. Too bad that with many of us He waits so long, so very long, in vain." – A. W. Tozer

Other News:
God is waiting to hear our prayers. He is willing to work, act and redeem this earth, but He waits to hear His children ask it of Him. Is God prompting us to prostrate ourselves before Him and intercede for the nations? Yes. Let's remember that as God looks down from heaven he waits to hear the groaning of His faithful ones. He wants--but waits--to release the nations from bondage. Let's not hinder Him any longer. Let's ask Him carry out His will.
