The Reason (The stakes are too low).\n\nWe live in a world that requires us to learn the language of prayer because we live in God’s world.\n\n16 For by[f] him all things were created, in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities—all things were created through him and for him. 17 And he is before all things, and in him all things hold together. \nColossians 1:16-17\n\n4 Abide in me, and I in you.

Father!”\nRomans 8:15\n\n26 Likewise the Spirit helps us in our weakness. For we do not know what to pray for as we ought, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us with groanings too deep for words. \nRomans 8:26\n\n16 Rejoice...","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/BjiZxrt0a9mZ2dDE8857wRItwuk9xfgMH36A4JE3q70/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS9zaG93/LzI3OTc4LzE2OTMw/NzI5MzktYXJ0d29y/ay5qcGc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
