Romans 7 tells us a lot about our decisions to be followers of Jesus. What we learn quickly is that it is a journey, not a destination. We will have moments of ups and downs. Somedays we will be salt and light, and other days we will slip back into our sinful ways. Our Enemy and the world will call us hypocrites, but our Heavenly Father will call us a beautiful disaster and loved. The journey is a painful one, but worth the fight.

As a parent we want nothing more than for our children to grow up and have a great childhood, full of great memories and be successful in anything and everything that they do. In fact, we want this so much that we will stop at nothing to make sure that they have that, even if that means at the great expense of or own desires and pleasures. Sometimes the greatest way we can offer our children all that they deserve is not through the sacrifices we make, but through our prayers that we utter, trusting a God who loves so deeply to provide where we cannot. Here are 3 things to pray over your children to help give them the best possible life.

We all have physical needs that we could use provision for, but have you ever thought about asking God, the provider, to provide more faith for you spiritual needs? Check out this episode as we dive into the fact the God is God the Provider.
