Feeling Anguish over the loss of our dog Honey even though she’s been gone nearly 2 years, it doesn’t feel like we’ve ever really overcome that difficult trial.

I find myself all too often grumbling and murmuring about a “pack of peanuts” in my day. I know that Satan is out to destroy our fathers work through seeking to destroy ME! But as I apply prayer, “pepper pray” that we can come off conquer.

We have much to accomplish in this life. But how do we do so with doubts and negativity that swirl and through our mind? How do we accomplish his purposes with all the Temptations and trails of our life? A wonderful conference: The Spirit of Revelation
