This completely blew off my mind. Jesus Christ is not just a mere name that is mentioned in sermons, He is the content, the context, the text, paragraph, remark, the mark and the outline of the entire Bible. WOW, how awesome is our God…
Therefore;
Cultivate the habit of talking to the Lord when you can… during the day at work and at home….
Continually petition Him for help, for light, for strength, for knowledge. Let every breath be a prayer so God can be in every part or every hour of your day… Amen

This blows my mind, too, but God had a plan before our creation and then set it in motion. I’m re-blogging!

Love it! I just shared this with my friend Sharon. She was an Orthodox Jew, and I prayed for her for about 25 years. She is now a Messianic Jew (Glory!).
Thanks for sharing such a great piece.
