WHAT YOU SAY

The key to recollection is knowing that God hears you and looks at you with live. The Book of Proverbs tell us that his "delight is to be with the sons of men". In other words, he wants to spend time with you, and he wants you to stop for a few minutes to talk to him.

WELL... THERE IS ONE GOOD METHOD:

I'm praying for ---. Help me see them like you do.

Jesus, I don't know what to tell you today.

What would you do in my place?
