Conversations with God (Prayer)
Life is hard. In times of distress and pain, it helps to have someone who will listen as we talk, vent, bargain, and even wrestle with the issues causing us trouble. As Christians, we always have Someone to whom we can turn. Through prayer, we can have real, honest, raw conversations with God.
Glenn Newton shares stories of prayer from Scripture, showing us that we, too, can ask questions, cry out, and demonstrate our love for God. Just be sure to listen for His answer.
