Even in the belly of a fish...

Then Jonah prayed to the LORD his God from inside the fish.
He said,
"I cried out to the LORD in my great trouble, and he answered me.
  I called to you from the land of the dead, and LORD, you heard me!
                                                                                                 
                                                                                                    Jonah 2:1-2

Even in the belly of a great fish, the LORD heard Jonah cry out to him.
No matter who you are, where you go, or what you do, The LORD will always hear your prayers.

We've been gone awhile.

As you can see from the date on the last post we've been away from the blog for quiet some time. Sadly we don't really have a good reason for this; but we've come to the conclusion that this blog is really an important part of our ministry. Even though it's small and not very popular, we hope it's reaching someone.
So with that, here's our verse of the day.

Hebrews 13:5

"I will never fail you. I will never abandon you."

Micah 2:12-13
"Someday, O Israel, I will gather you;
I will gather the remnant who are left.
I will bring you together again like sheep in a pen,
like a flock in its pasture.
Yes, your land will again
be filled with noisy crowds!
Your leader will break out 
and lead you out of exile, 
out through the gates of the enemy cities,
back to your own land.
Your king will lead you;
the LORD himself will guide you."
