He acknowledges, You are the shadow that crosses near in the silence of prayer. Praying these prayers with Haas becomes a daily chant reminiscent of those in monasteries the world over, kneeling in prayer in the silent hours before dawn."

Download or read book Straight from the Heart written by Katherine M. Williams and published by Xulon Press. This book was released on 2017-10-03 with total page 84 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many people believed that this thing called "The Internet" was "of the devil;" many still do. Well just as fire can burn down the home you worked so hard to build, that same fire can warm you on a cold winter night. Katherine took the fire of prayer and encouragement that The Lord placed in her bosom, put fingers to a keyboard, and birthed an electronic ministry. Straight from the Heart captures how Katherine utilized technology to continue her God-given ministry, and expand its reach far beyond what she could ever ask or imagine. Marsha Sydnor, sister-girl Atlanta, GA Katherine Williams is a cousin, a sister, and a friend. She married into our family over 30 years ago and has been a blessing to my wife and me ever since. Kathy has a heart for prayer; is always open to share, exhort and encourage others; and loves the Lord with all of her heart. We know this because she exudes the love of Jesus Christ wherever she goes. Even in the face of challenges and difficulties, Kathy has overcome by continuing to stretch herself in her personal, business, and spiritual life. Katherine is soft-spoken, but powerful in her witness for God and has an unusual and extraordinary faith. About 18 years ago, my wife and I had a 3rd miscarriage in our journey toward parenthood. We sought doctors and fertility specialists and often wondered if we would ever become parents. Kathy prayed with my wife in sincere faith, and the next month we conceived our son, who is now 17 years old. She has prayed this same prayer for countless other mothers over the years--and we've seen many long-awaited children born as a result of her faith and God's power. There is no one more qualified to write this, her second book, entitled "Straight from the Heart." Kenneth and Lisa Reece, Pastor and First Lady Cornerstone Missionary Baptist Church, San Francisco, CA Katherine tells her story in a candid, convincing and challenging way. She shares the truth without fluff. She is open and allows you to travel with her on her journey. She shares her story just as she lived it. As you read Katherine's story, it is clear that the grace of God is weaved like a tapestry throughout her story. I am proud of my spiritual daughter and as you read this book you will be happy that you accepted the invitation to be a part of her journey. Dr. Ephraim Williams Pastor, St. Paul Baptist Church Sacramento Ca.

Download or read book Walking with God written by John Eldredge and published by Thomas Nelson. This book was released on 2010-09-19 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “This is a series of stories of what it looks like to walk with God, over the course of about a year.” So begins a remarkable narrative of one man’s journey learning to hear the voice of God. The details are intimate and personal. The invitation is for us all. What if we could hear from God . . . often? What difference would it make? We have a lot to sort through on any given day. A whole lot to navigate over the course of a week or a month. Am I in the right place? The right relationships? How am I going to come up with enough money to do the things I want to do? And what about love—is this the one? Will it last? What is causing all those fears I keep pushing down inside? Why can’t I overcome those “habits” that look more and more like addictions? Am I at the right church? Should I even go to church? What is God doing in my life? All day long we are making choices. It adds up to an enormous amount of decisions in a lifetime. How do we know what to do? We have two options. We can trudge through on our own, doing our best to figure it all out. Or, we can walk with God. As in, learn to hear his voice. Really. We can live life with God. He offers to speak to us and guide us. Every day. It is an incredible offer. To accept that offer is to enter into an adventure filled with joy and risk, transformation and breakthrough. And more clarity than we ever thought possible.
