Is fasting only Old Testament? Could it release God’s power for miracles in your life today? Is food the only thing a Christian can fast? When should a Christian fast? All these questions and more will be answered by God on this conversation with God. –Ray
23 Take Time With God: What this world needs His love
Ephesians 4:10-18 New American Standard Bible (NASB) 10 He who descended is Himself also He who ascended far above all the heavens, so that He might fill all things.) 11 And He gave some as apostles, and some as prophets, and some as evangelists, and some as pastors and teachers,12 for the equipping of the [a]saints for the work of service, to the building up ofthe body of Christ; 13 until we all attain to the unity of the faith, and of the[b]knowledge of the Son of God, to a mature man, to the measure of the stature[c]which belongs to the fullness of Christ. 14 [d]As a result, we are no longer to be children, tossed here and there by waves and carried about by every wind of doctrine, by the trickery of men, by craftiness [e]in deceitful scheming; 15 but[f]speaking the truth in love, [g]we are to grow up in all aspects into Him who is the head, even Christ, 16 from whom the whole body, being fitted and held together [h]by what every joint supplies, according to the [i]proper working of each individual part, causes the growth of the body for the building up of itself in love. 23 Take Time With God: What this world needs His love
Left Behind – The Kids: Chapter 2 The Vanishings – VICKI – THE REBEL:
Vicki Byrne was fourteen and looked eighteen. Tall and slender, she had fiery red hair and had recently learned to dress in a way that drew attention, from girls and guys. She liked leather. Low-cut black boots, short skirts, flashy tops, lots of jewelry, and a different hairstyle almost every day.
She was tough. She had to be. Other kids at school considered kids who lived in trailer parks lower-class. Vicki’s friends were her “own kind,” as her enemies liked to say. When she and her trailer park neighbors boarded the bus on Vicki’s first day of high school, they quickly realized how it was going to be.
The bus was full. It was obvious the trailer park was the last stop on the route. Only the first two kids of the twelve boarding from the trailer park found a seat even to share. Every morning they jostled for position to be one of the lucky first ones aboard. Vicki had given up trying. Two senior boys, smelling of tobacco and bad breath and never, ever, carrying schoolbooks, muscled their way to the front of the line.
