“Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding; In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct your paths”

A. C. Dickson, a fine expositor of the Word of God, once said:
When we depend upon organization, we get what organization can do.
When we depend upon education, we get what education can do.
When we depend on money, we get what money can do.
When we depend on singing and preaching, we get what singing and preaching can do.
But when we depend upon prayer, we get what God can do.
Oh, what this world needs is what God can do! What our cities need is what God can do! What your home needs is what God can do! What our churches need is what God can do!
Are you depending on what God can do? Are you depending on prayer?
I try to unplug each morning with Jesus with just my rocking chair, my Bible, and a pen.
Having a secret place is very important because I know that Jesus is always there waiting for me. I know where I can find Him! His presence is everywhere, but there are places where it is so thick you can cut it with a knife. You may not even have a front porch, but there is a secret place for you as well. God’s invitations are for anyone who will respond. There is no more important request than the one found in Psalm 27:8: “My heart has heard You say, ‘Come and talk with Me.’ And my heart responds, ‘Lord, I am coming.’”
