Repentance

Don’t Settle for a Burger!

In today’s society fast food is making billions. It’s slogans are “have it your way” and “have it hot and and have it now”. How easy it is for us to fall into this “fast food mentality”. It has almost become who we are. But in God’s kingdom there’s no fast food. We can’t always have it our way and now.

True patience is the ability to wait on the Lord through trials without complaining and worrying; it is to be tested and persevere through trial.

As I’ve been writing about the “great awakenings” that took place over the past few days. I believe we could be witnessing such a move of God.
