DAILY DEVOTIONAL WEDNESDAY FEBRUARY 1, 2012
(John 3:16)
***JANUARY FINANCIAL UPDATE: Thank you to those who prayed and were able to
help God's work here during January. We ended January $35,000 short of
covering our basic January operations. We desperately need to cover $10,000
of that shortfall immediately, and am praying that the balance will be
covered by the end of the week. *I am asking 2 people who are able to pray
about sending a special gift of $5,000 today to help me with this amount.
Please take a moment today and pray about sending a gift to support God's
work here at Liveprayer so we can get January's budget taken care of and
begin to work on the $40,000 we need for February. Everyone can pray, and
most can send something, even if it is only $5.
To make a special gift to Liveprayer, you can send your gift to Liveprayer
on your major credit card at our website www.liveprayer.com under the
"Donation" button, or you can give from your PayPal account by using my
email address, bkeller@liveprayer.com , or you can mail it to: Liveprayer,

***PLEASE FORWARD THIS MESSAGE TO EVERYONE YOU KNOW. IT IS TIME FOR THE
BODY OF CHRIST TO STAND AND BE COUNTED IN THESE LAST DAYS. WE STILL HAVE A
SHORT WINDOW TO TURN THIS NATION BACK TO GOD AND HIS TRUTH, WHILE LEADING
THE LOST TO FAITH IN JESUS CHRIST!
I am excited to share with you that my new book that was supposed to be out
in December will finally be ready sometime this month. It will be FREE, and
a key resource to fulfill our ultimate work for the Lord to lead this nation
back to God and His Truth while we still have time. As I prophetically
shared with you last November, sadly this next election for President will
come down to literally Satan vs. Satan, or satanic cult member Romney vs. a
true enemy of God Barack Hussein Obama.
THAT MEANS THE HAND OF GOD'S PROTECTION AND BLESSING IS LIFTED FROM THIS
NATION!!
Now more than ever, it is clear why God has raised up and sustained His work
here these nearly 13 years. This is HIS vehicle to lead our nation back to
Himself and Biblicla Truth while leading a harvest of lost souls to faith in
Jesus. Now is OUR TIME! A key part of that will be the Liveprayer TV
program once again on national TV coming this May, and my big concern is
keeping the ministry alive over these next 3 months, since the new TV
program will not just help us fulfill our calling to lead this nation back
to God and His Truth, but open up a new base of followers of the ministry
who will be able to help us finance our daily operations.
I am at a crossroads. In 2007, I wrote a Devotional stating that 2008 would
be a monumental year, a year of great change. It was. We saw the financial
crisis that has impacted tens of millions of people in this nation, hundreds
of millions more around the world explode. We saw the election of a new
President who has spent his first two years in office taking a stand for
everything God opposes and helping to lead this nation deeper into the
spiritual abyss.
While over 12,000 churches have shut down, 120,000 non-profit organizations
closed their doors, and with the property of nearly 40,000 churches in
foreclosure, Liveprayer has continued to press forward despite seeing a 67%
drop in donations from 2008 and losing 29 of our core group of 30 people who
had the ability in times of financial difficulty to be able to overnight or
wire $10,000-$30,000 to help us over a rough edge.
Due to our extreme financial crisis, I have cut my personal salary from
$36,000 to just $12,000, and that is only in order to pay the most basic
needs to survive each month. I have poured my heart, soul, life, and even
blood at times into God's work here the past 12+ years to reach the lost and
see HIS Truth declared in the marketplace, to be a rare bold, umcompromised
voice for Biblical Truth in this lost age.
As I type these words tonight, I am nearly at the end. Simply sustaining our
daily operations is now a daily task. Simply paying for basic personal needs
is becoming more difficult. That is close to changing in a few months if we
can simply remain alive. For nearly 20 years, I have literally sacrifice my
life, my time, my talent, and my treasure to bring the lost to the saving
knowledge of Jesus Christ, and HIS Truth boldly and without compromise into
the marketplace, as very few are doing, virtually none at a national level
in the secular media
Don't think for a second I am not of flesh and blood and think about how I
could have simply fallen into line like the rest. Gone on Christian TV,
brought false hope into people's lives, never talked about sin or the hell
that awaits those who reject Jesus, compromise and take the money from cult
members, and totally sold out the faith in order to be politically correct
and generate tens of millions annually to live like a rock star.
However, at the end of this life, I will stand before God our Creator like
each person will. I will give an account for my life. The one thing I can
honestly say when I die is that I never wavered, I never backed down from
telling people the raw Truth of His Word, and that I never hesitated to
boldly declare the only hope for each man is faith in Jesus Christ. That my
friend, will be my lasting testimony!!!
I come today asking you to help me. Over nearly 12 years, Liveprayer has
sent personal responses to over 70 MILLION emails. We still get over 40,000
a day. Tens of millions of live worldwide have been impacted. Over 600,000
we know of have come to faith in Jesus. THIS IS MY ETERNAL LEGACY AND MY
TRACK RECORD OF SERVICE THESE PAST 12 YEARS!!! MY JOB IS NOT FINISHED!!!
All we have done has only been possible by dear friends like you who have
prayed for me, and sacrificed to support me financially. In these 12 years,
I have never asked for anything for myself, and despite sacrificing the vast
bulk of what little personal compensation I took for several years, leaving
me over $50,000 in current debts, my only goal today is to cover the $35,000
we need to cover the January expenses to simply keep Liveprayer alive for
one more month. This is the way we have operated for the past 145 months. I
have simply asked the Lord to provide what I need to get to the next month.
I am letting you know today that $20,000 of January's shortfall must be paid
immediately. We also have to cover the $40,000 for this month's operations.
For those who have been part of the Liveprayer family for these many years,
you know that I have never sent a Devotional like this...ever. I don't play
games when it comes to the finances. I simply share our needs, get on my
knees, and trust God to move on the hearts of people to provide for our
needs.
My friend, I am counting on you today. I need to hear from you today. This
is critical, and I desperately need your help. We are so close to seeing the
fulfillment of all Liveprayer has been raised up to be. I can't see
everything stop now over a few thousand dollars. Somebody will lose that
tonight in Vegas. Will you reach down, make the sacrifce, and help me
today??? I desperately need you and will be in prayer for the Lord to move
on your heart to help me!
The fact is, I need $20,000 immediately, today! If you have the liquid cash
to wire to our bank, please email me at: bkeller@livepryaer.com and I will
get you the info. If you are able to send a gift of $2,000 or more, FedEx it
to our office in St. Petersburg, feel free to mark "bill recipient" and they
will be our special account. After nearly 13 years of pouring out my sweat
and blood, literally 24/7, I will not see God's work here slowed down or
thwarted, and definitely not shut down. There are enough people with
resources who can help me.
WE HAVE THE ABILITY, BASED ON NEARLY 13 YEARS OF PIONEERING THE INTERNET AND
BRINGING CHRIST TO THE MASSES ON SECULAR TV, OF BEING GOD'S AGENT TO TURN
THIS NATION BACK TO OUR CREATOR AND HIS TRUTH. THE TIME IS NOW, OUR
OPPORTUNITY IS UPON US, AND NOW MORE THAN EVER I NEED YOU TO HELP ME!
Please don't think that just because there are 2.4 million subscribers,
someone else will take care of this. It has been friends like YOU over the
years who God has spoken to, who have responded, who has made Liveprayer
available to bring hope and salvation to so many. It will take someone like
YOU today.
Also, I know there is someone reading these words who God has richly
blessed, you have been praying about a place to use your resources where God
can multiply them exponentially in the lives and eternal souls of men. THIS
IS IT! CONTACT ME AND LET'S CHAT HOW YOU CAN HELP ME!!!

I love you and care about you so much. Do you want to do something great for
God with your life??? STAND WITH ME!!! I CAN'T DO THIS ALONE!!! I am asking
you today to simply pray about what God may be calling you to do to help me
with this effort. I am also asking you to please forward this to every
person you know, personally reach out to those who God has blessed with
financial resources and encourage them to support this new work, and share
this email with your pastor and ask him to pray about having your church
make a special missions gift towards this effort. I will keep you posted how
we are doing with our financial goals over the coming weeks and months.
When this brief journey through life is over, what do we have to show for
it? The only lasting legacy we have are those things we did for the Lord. I
have taken my stand and will proclaim His truth with my dying breath. Today,
I am asking you to pray about joining me and let's turn this nation back to
God and His Truth!!!
Will you stand and fight with me???????
In His love and service,
Your friend and brother in Christ,
Bill Keller

"Thank you Jesus"
"Thank you Jesus"
For Thursday, April 21, 2011 written on Saturday, April 23, 2011
Thank you Jesus....
I just wanted to take the time to say thank you Jesus. Thank you for the roof over my head, the bed I sleep in, the clothes on my back and the food overflowing in my refrigerator and pantry. Thank you for my husband Pastor Steve who never seems to give up and loves the less fortunated. Thank you for my loyal cat Sam, my recovering new knees that will be soon and my soon to be healed fractured foot. I could go on and on with thanks, but mostly today I want to say thank you Jesus for dying for my sin. Thank you sheeding your blood for my sin so I may have the opportunity to live with you forever. Thank you for all the beatings you took, for the mean things said to you, for the things that you were accused of doing and never did, while you remained silence and obeyed your Father. I thank you for dying for my sin and I am so honor to call you my Savior for LIFE. This life here is meaningless, simply meaningless and I live my life to please you and only you. I do not care what people say, because they hated you first. You loved me first as scriptures says, He first loved us and then we loved Him....how I could of been there to show you that I love you that day on the hill of Calvary. But today and the rest of my days, no matter what I will do so. It doesn't matter who is with me or not...as long as I have you. You are beautiful, you are wonderful, you are my Master and I laugh at the days to come because I know you are working everything out for my good. If you are for me who can be aganist me? The people that try to hurt me with their lies, there mean words, I brush it off and know in my heart you know the truth.
Today, I asked you to stop and think a moment and just thank Jesus for all that He has done for you regardless of your circumstances. He loves you, He loves you and I'll say it again, He loves you!! If you have never asked Jesus into your heart to be your friend, Savior and the ruler of your life, say this short prayer....
Dear Jesus:
I've sinned, I'm not proud of it. I am sorry, please forgive me. Wipe away all my sin, wash me clean as white as snow. Come into my heat to be my friend, Savior, and guide my steps. I believe you died on the cross for my sin, and on the 3rd day rose again, and I believe you are the Son of God. Thank you for accepting me into your family, into your kingdom. Help me to do better, help me to walk a walk that will make you proud so when I enter into enterity and walk through the gates you can claim me as your own and say; WELL DONE my faithful servant. I pray all of this in your precious name, the name about all names...Jesus....AMEN and AMEN...
Love you guys so much, keep your head high and know that He loves you, we love you, and we are always praying for you. Should you need pray, please send me an email at: PinkLoveFL@aol.com and you can bank on it that I/we will pray for you and reply back. Remember He is the King of Kings and Lord of Lords and NOTHING is impossible to those that believe in Him.
God Bless you and have an awesome Easter Season...

"Mamma always said life was like a box of chocolates. You never know what you're gonna get"-Forrest Gump
April 14, 2011
“Mama always said life was like a box of chocolates. You never know what you’re gonna get” –Forrest Gump
Most of you are probably very familiar with this quote from Forrest Gump but it is very true! In life we must make the best out of what we’re dealt! Just as you’re familiar with card games you never know what cards you will be dealt but you just play your hand the best you can.
Some of us are dealing with divorce, sickness, bankruptcy, family problems, mental illness, death, depression, and the list goes on but regardless of what you are dealing with or facing we must have faith and know that God is in control no matter what. You may not understand why you’re going through your situation or you may feel like bad things just keep on happening and you can never catch a break but always remember what God says in Proverbs 3:5 “Lean on, trust in, and be confident in the Lord with all your heart and mind and do not rely on your own insight or understanding.” (AMP)
What you’re facing may feel like there’s no way out or there’s no hope but with God all things are possible! When our problems are telling us to give up Jesus says in Luke 18:1 that we should always pray and never give up! The harder the battle the bigger the blessing…keep holding on… your breakthrough is on its way.
Philippians 4:13 “Christ gives me the strength to face anything.” (CEV)

MY BFF a changed women of God NEVER give up on someone
My Best Friend Robin Brewer from Homestead Correctional Institution Meet Robin from Homestead Correctional. She has been in prison going on 18 years!! This is a women of God. NEVER give up on peple, with God ALL things are possible. Please pray with us and stand in faith that she is released. Lettters from Lord (Linda) brought her to me through a simple twet asking to write an inmate or two. I voluteered. I am only alowed to see 1 inamte accoridning the rules of FL, and God said ROBIN. Although I do write the other lady Nancy that she gave me alone with every inmate that writes Pink Love Ministires, a sister organzation of Surrender40 Ministrires, Inc.. ITs' going over 2 years that we have been writing and us going into MAX prion to sit, eat, pray and enoucarge her. She is a changed women. I pray in Jesus name that she is released. And I have opened my home to her Mom , she has slept over here when she was down from ID. Please pray for Robin, there is allot of evil... we feel it when we go there and bleed the blood of Jesus over us. I stand in fatith beliving one day I will do a post that Roobin has received her FREEEDOM. I/we have offered her to stay in our home under the watch of the ministries if they let her out sooner to do the rest of her time. Thanks for reading, thanks for praying and know in your heart that there are some good ones in prison. I send out through Pink Love Ministries around 520 monthly devotinals to women in prison to encourage and love on them. One day I hope every women in prison gets a devotional ., a word of enouarge and love, and finds Christ. Everyone deserves to know Christ and be forgiven and go to Heaven. Please pray not only for Robin but the inmates male or female that are locked up and they are being charged for something they did, but didn't, pray for the person in prison that has really changed to receive their freedom back.

"Children are you there?
Thursday, March 24, 2011
Children are you there?
We love our kids to no end only to find out that they are not whom they are called to be. You raise them, you love them and they hurt you. Sometimes the hurt is in a way that is so unbearable that all you can do is reach out to God for help. You ask God to help train them in the right way to go (Proverbs 22:6) and stand on the promises that one that day they will be back. But what do you do in the meantime? We know we pray and pray and pray. We fall prostate to the Lord for help because we have surrendered them to Him and help and hope all works well. I write this devotional today from my own personal experience. I have 2 prodigal's and I am broken inside. Where do I turn other then to God? I trust one day they we each come back and make amends for the things they have done, but in the meantime that parent is left in despair, left in a puddle of tears. For this reason I personally always wanted more kids but after losing one to death and now the other two our prodigals I want to be free from my pain. There are many people out there right now reading this with kids out there and all you do is pray for their return to the cross, I am with you. But in the meantime, how do you stop the crying? How do you stop that what if's, you give them everything and it still isn't enough. You train them up in the Lord for them only to rebel and go their own way. When does the parent get the relief so needed from God? First my son Daniel whom will be 23 in July hurt me so bad I just don't know how to process it other than pray and pray more. Without God I don't know what I would do. I look at when I was his age and if I did these things ever to my Mom or Father, Lord PLEASE forgive me, even though my Mom went to be with the Lord in 2002 and we were BEST OF FRIENDS. I miss her deeply.
I am not even sure if this a devotional but it was put on my heart to share with you because many are going through the same. As God holds my tears in a many bottles, I just wish things could be different somehow. He (my son) has chosen to serve the world not God, he has chosen to live for himself and not for God or for others. Maybe some reading this have heard the words F---U to your face, but I never had, and this past week I heard it to my face several times, from the mouth of the child I birthed! Do you have any idea how MUCH pain I feel from that?
In addition, along with finding out the he is living with a girl whom without getting into details DID NOT get permission from my son to use my car. My son didn't have the authorization to do so, only the policy owner my husband and I and now I am being sued for bodily inquiry and many court dates ahead. I love my son so much, I have done everything to be a good mom, but still ended up with what I have, which is a prodigal. I am a God fearing women, so all those reading this, it isn't your fault they make their own choice.
My daughter, yet another prodigal lied and said my husband punched her in the face (which he NEVER did, nor would he ever do) and now her mom pulled out a restraining order, just because she is doesn't want to do her punishment; lose her TV, sneakers, things that mean the most to her and she lied to her mom. Her mom believed her. I know this devotional is much different than many you have read from Pink Love, but I/we need your prayers. Jesus will have the victory over them regardless on how it looks. Please stand in prayer that our kids come back home and get right with God. They are both lying about everything and not being honest with what really is going on. Sara, rather stay living with her mom (even though my husband has custody because as our Pastor said she doesn't want to pay child support. Sara goes from a believers home to a non believers home so she lives a double life and Sara chose to live for satan, and not God. I love her so much and miss her. We were recently in Idaho and she got to see snow for the first time, all her trips ever to NY, CA, Washington, Idaho and Disney we took her, we saved our $$ y bring for years at a time sometimes to make sure we took her on trips and Daniel too when he was younger. Sara would rather stay with her mom because she has freedom, she has no rules, she runs the show and her there are rules and her Dad being a Pastor that means reading the Word of God via a devotional and Bible readings as a family at night. I just asked anyone of you if you have a word of encouragement for my husband please send it to us. We love them dearly and have done our best with them. Could we have done better, yes, we can all do better but for the most part we are God fearing parents that put our kids first. I know in my spirit Sara is coming home shortly because court is soon. We miss Sara SO much, it hurts DEEP in our bones, DEEP in our souls! But why bring her here if she doesn't want to be here?
I am asking you to pray for Sara's mom to accept Jesus Christ into her life and surrender to Him completely and not live with a man and set this type of example nor let Sara climb out of windows and come back with hickey's on her neck. We are living in the end times, children will be disobedient to there parents we know this, but please pray for both Daniel and Sara to come back home and more importantly to the cross where Jesus gave up His LIFE for their sins. We are not mad, just hurt, and all we want to do is to love them. We also ask you that if Sara nor Daniel has never truly accepted Jesus in their hearts that today would be the day since tomorrow is promised to none of us. Time just goes by, but each day we get closer to our day to go home to either be with the Lord or spend eternity without him. We post all of our devotionals that we send out to you, SO if you Daniel, or you Sara are reading this, we love you, come home and all is forgiven. Life is too short and the evil one doesn't want you to be with us. We pray right now in Jesus name for all the prodigals out that right now that they would ask God for forgiveness and come back home. God will forgive you no matter what you have done and so will we. If you don't want to, then know this, WE LOVE YOU BOTH SO MUCH, we forgive you and we miss you deeply. Please reach out to us, there is so much we would like to say. But more importantly that God loves you so much and we do too.
May God Bless you today, and always as you stand in the gap for your lost child or grandchild.

Children are you there?
We love our kids to no end only to find out that they are not whom they are called to be. You raise them, you love them and they hurt you. Sometimes the hurt is in a way that is so unbearable that all you can do is reach out to God for help. You ask God to help train them in the right way to go (Proverbs 22:6) and stand on the promises that one that day they will be back. But what do you do in the meantime? We know we pray and pray and pray. We fall prostate to the Lord for help because we have surrendered them to Him and help and hope all works well. I write this devotional today from my own personal experience. I have 2 prodigal's and I am broken inside. Where do I turn other then to God? I trust one day they we each come back and make amends for the things they have done, but in the meantime that parent is left in despair, left in a puddle of tears. For this reason I personally always wanted more kids but after losing one to death and now the other two our prodigals I want to be free from my pain. There are many people out there right now reading this with kids out there and all you do is pray for their return to the cross, I am with you. But in the meantime, how do you stop the crying? How do you stop that what if's, you give them everything and it still isn't enough. You train them up in the Lord for them only to rebel and go their own way. When does the parent get the relief so needed from God? First my son Daniel whom will be 23 in July hurt me so bad I just don't know how to process it other than pray and pray more. Without God I don't know what I would do. I look at when I was his age and if I did these things ever to my Mom or Father, Lord PLEASE forgive me, even though my Mom went to be with the Lord in 2002 and we were BEST OF FRIENDS. I miss her deeply.
I am not even sure if this a devotional but it was put on my heart to share with you because many are going through the same. As God holds my tears in a many bottles, I just wish things could be different somehow. He (my son) has chosen to serve the world not God, he has chosen to live for himself and not for God or for others. Maybe some reading this have heard the words F---U to your face, but I never had, and this past week I heard it to my face several times, from the mouth of the child I birthed! Do you have any idea how MUCH pain I feel from that?
In addition, along with finding out the he is living with a girl whom without getting into details DID NOT get permission from my son to use my car. My son didn't have the authorization to do so, only the policy owner my husband and I and now I am being sued for bodily inquiry and many court dates ahead. I love my son so much, I have done everything to be a good mom, but still ended up with what I have, which is a prodigal. I am a God fearing women, so all those reading this, it isn't your fault they make their own choice.
My daughter, yet another prodigal lied and said my husband punched her in the face (which he NEVER did, nor would he ever do) and now her mom pulled out a restraining order, just because she is doesn't want to do her punishment; lose her TV, sneakers, things that mean the most to her and she lied to her mom. Her mom believed her. I know this devotional is much different than many you have read from Pink Love, but I/we need your prayers. Jesus will have the victory over them regardless on how it looks. Please stand in prayer that our kids come back home and get right with God. They are both lying about everything and not being honest with what really is going on. Sara, rather stay living with her mom (even though my husband has custody because as our Pastor said she doesn't want to pay child support. Sara goes from a believers home to a non believers home so she lives a double life and Sara chose to live for satan, and not God. I love her so much and miss her. We were recently in Idaho and she got to see snow for the first time, all her trips ever to NY, CA, Washington, Idaho and Disney we took her, we saved our $$ y bring for years at a time sometimes to make sure we took her on trips and Daniel too when he was younger. Sara would rather stay with her mom because she has freedom, she has no rules, she runs the show and her there are rules and her Dad being a Pastor that means reading the Word of God via a devotional and Bible readings as a family at night. I just asked anyone of you if you have a word of encouragement for my husband please send it to us. We love them dearly and have done our best with them. Could we have done better, yes, we can all do better but for the most part we are God fearing parents that put our kids first. I know in my spirit Sara is coming home shortly because court is soon. We miss Sara SO much, it hurts DEEP in our bones, DEEP in our souls! But why bring her here if she doesn't want to be here?
I am asking you to pray for Sara's mom to accept Jesus Christ into her life and surrender to Him completely and not live with a man and set this type of example nor let Sara climb out of windows and come back with hickey's on her neck. We are living in the end times, children will be disobedient to there parents we know this, but please pray for both Daniel and Sara to come back home and more importantly to the cross where Jesus gave up His LIFE for their sins. We are not mad, just hurt, and all we want to do is to love them. We also ask you that if Sara nor Daniel has never truly accepted Jesus in their hearts that today would be the day since tomorrow is promised to none of us. Time just goes by, but each day we get closer to our day to go home to either be with the Lord or spend eternity without him. We post all of our devotionals that we send out to you, SO if you Daniel, or you Sara are reading this, we love you, come home and all is forgiven. Life is too short and the evil one doesn't want you to be with us. We pray right now in Jesus name for all the prodigals out that right now that they would ask God for forgiveness and come back home. God will forgive you no matter what you have done and so will we. If you don't want to, then know this, WE LOVE YOU BOTH SO MUCH, we forgive you and we miss you deeply.

THE LOVE OF GOD FOR HIS PEOPLE NEVER FAILS
While reading Psalm 13, I was impressed to send you a few words ofencouragement I have gleaned from this blessed chapter.David penned the words contained in this Psalm. He asked, "How long will youforget me, Lord? Forever? How long will you hide your face from me? How longshall I have sorrow in my heart daily? How long will the enemy be exaltedoverme?"It sounds as if David felt that God had altogether left him to suffer, towakeup each day with a black cloud hanging over him. For a season, David spokeoutof despair: "God, will this feeling of isolation go on forever? When will myprayers be answered?"When troubles assail us though we know we love the Lord - when deliveranceseems distant and hopeless - we sink under the pressure. Right now, someonereading these words is sinking under the awful pressure of a situation thatseems to be unsolvable. They are on the verge of total despair, hoping acalm will come if only for a break in their trial.In the midst of his own trial, David asked, "How long shall I take counselin my soul?" He had formed one plan after another, trying to devise ways out ofhis trouble - but all his plans, all arrangements, had failed. Now he hadnothing else to think of, no workable solution. He was at the end of it all.How upsetting it is to see a ray of hope, a bit of sunshine, but thendespair once again sets in. Keep in mind, this all happened to a godly man, someoneafter God's heart. David was a man who testified of having great trust inthe Lord. Yet, like us, David went through hard times, as he describes in thisPsalm. How did David arise from this pit of despair? "I will trust in your mercy.I will sing." Let me share with you reasons to keep trusting your way through your presenttrials: No matter how the storms may rage, our precious Lord will still be feedingthe fowls of the air, dressing the lilies of the field, and supplying anoceanfull of fish with their daily needs. "Your heavenly Father feedeth them."Not one bird ever falls to the ground without the Father's eye upon it.. What kind of Father would feed all the creatures of the earth and yetneglect his children? Jesus exhorted us to "give no thought" to everydayneeds and problems, "for he careth for you."Truly, the Lord loves you, and he will not turn a deaf ear to your cries.Hold on to his promises. Move on in faith. Wait on him patiently. He will neverfail you.
