Pray Quotes
-
There will be times in your life when you want to pray but feel so far from God that prayer seems impossible. The flesh will tell you that God is against you, that you have gone too far and that He is no longer interested in you. But faith defies the flesh. It contradicts Satan’s lies. It rises up against defeat, gloom, and despair and finds hope in God.

Was not Paul an extremist for the Christian gospel: "I bear in my body the marks of the Lord Jesus."
