The Wind Blows Where it Wants To
Winds of change are blowing in the world today. It is this unspeakable, unseen power that molds our world. It affects the land and sea. Nothing and nowhere on the surface of the earth is beyond the touch of it’s power. “The wind bloweth where it listeth, ?so is every one that is born of the Spirit.†John 3:8 “The Wind Blows where it wants to, and so does everyone that is born again.†SP Version Wind is a current of air...

In the past few years I’ve been tested with many things; a broken family, the death of loved ones, and major health problems. I’ve been through a lot for a person my age, (21) and sometimes I wonder why and I have found myself asking, “God, are you there?†Whenever I’m going through hard things, I find myself seeking after God in prayer for wisdom and answers, but I’ve found that some things in life are unanswered.

In fact, they are of much greater importance and significance to our lives than we may realize! When God chooses to bless us, He does so with the essence of who He is. When we are blessed of Him, we are being...
