God Wants To Help Us... He Loves Us... We Are His Children. But He Will Not Force His Help On Us At Any Time. He Sees Us When We Struggle And Fight And Complain Our Way Through Things. And I Believe It Breaks His Heart, When All We Have To Do Is Ask Him For Help.

Anybody Who Comes Together In A Large Group And They All Believe The Same Thing, They're Going To Generate A Certain Amount Of Power. The Bible Says One Puts 1,000 In Flight, And Two 10,000, And So On And So Forth. And So Even If Me And Somebody Else Got Into Agreement About Something, We Would Have More Power Than Each Of Us By Ourselves.

I Think A Lot Of People Believe That They Have To Be Poor To Serve God, That They Can't Have Anything. They Don't Really Even Know How To Give.
