…was my gift from the village church I ministered in Sunday. A relatively poor (financially) church, yet so giving. I was especially moved by a lady, who gave me what seemed like all she had ($1.50), asking for a prayer of blessing. I was touched by her faith…truly a modern day version of the widow’s mite.

I spoke about God is the potter and we are the clay, focusing on Him refining us to become what He desires us to be…more like Him. Everyday, we face character challenges, things that test our patience, our love walk, etc. When these tests come, we should look at them as opportunities to be more like our heavenly Father.
