Your god may be your little Christian habit - the habit of prayer or Bible reading at certain times of your day.

No, this is your time alone with your habit.

jobs prayer issues
Prayer is often a temptation to bank on a miracle of God instead of on a moral issue, i.e., it is much easier to ask God to do my work than it is to do it myself. Until we are disciplined properly, we will always be inclined to bank on God's miracles and refuse to do the moral thing ourselves. It is our job, and it will never be done unless we do it.
crystals alive should
