Pathway to Peace - The Way of Prayer with Thanksgiving
Black Rock Church Sermons
This morning’s message looks at Paul’s words in Philippians 4:6-7 as an encouragement to pray and share with God all the things on our heart and mind, not only to see God change circumstances, but as a way to change us and to know that He cares for us. Prayer is relational in nature because it builds our trust and connection with the Lord. We can pray about everything and learn to be anxious for nothing.
