		<description><![CDATA[I just received a link to the following email from Guy Muse, my missionary friend from Ecuador.  Just as he thought it worth sharing, so did I.
&#8230;from an email received from John White (Denver, CO)&#8230;

Perhaps it is just a phase, but I haven&#8217;t made time or had much inspiration in a while.  I am having fun with some artistic release as Moonface Martin in &#8220;Anything [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[&#8220;A tiny group of believers who have the gospel keep mumbling it over and over to themselves.&#8221;
- K.P. Yohannan 
As they argue over the trivial, billions around the world never find the freedom, peace, and love that comes through an intimate relationship with the Father!
We are called to live for God&#8217;s glory in all the [...]]]></description>

What does that mean?  How can we find rest in God alone?
In the same Psalm David affirms that God is his rock, salvation, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Why do we worry?

Why do we strive?

Why would we believe for one minute that our provision, our livelihood, our joy, or anything else we may need or desire is dependent upon ourselves?

 2 My help comes from the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[One thing that has been on my heart lately is a question of how we (the Riley family) should handle our finances.  Over a year ago, perhaps two or so years ago, I knew God was telling me to get out of debt, even the mortgage on our home in Arkansas.  Of course, [...]]]></description>

With this, God shows us that fear is in direct opposition to real power, true love, and self-control. [...]]]></description>
