(love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness or self-control) 5 - Did it come to pass? Actual Narnia Quote: “Then he isn't safe?” said Lucy. “Safe?” said Mr. Beaver. “Don't you hear what Mrs. Beaver tells you? Who said anything about safe? 'Course he isn't safe. But he's good. He's the King, I tell you.” Other Resources: - Lectio 365 App: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/lectio-365/id1483974820 - If you are interested in learning about praying scripture, a quick google search for "praying scripture" will turn up a variety of resources. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/becomingrooted/message
