Daily I receive a quote or message from Inward Outward and I wanted to share
the words from one with you.
“Lord, I believe my life is touched by you, that you want something for me and of
me. Give me ears to hear you, eyes to see the tracing of your finger, and a heart
quickened by the motions of your Spirit.”
These words could be used as a daily meditation, a statement of faith and then a
request that God would continue to deepen our faith that we might draw closer
to our creator to know what we are to do in our creator’s name. Blessings, Dear
Friends, Randy C. Schaffer
