Harnessing the Power of Belief: Daily Reflections with Sarah M.
I must keep a time apart with God every day. Gradually, I will be transformed mentally and spiritually. It is not the praying so much as just being in God's presence. The strengthening and curative powers of this I cannot understand, because such knowledge is beyond human understanding. But I can experience them. - Meditation for the Day
