A Journey into Prayer by Evelyn Christenson

At the end of our lives we will be the sum truth of our responses to God's answers to our prayers - for God has chosen to be limited in His next action by our response to His previous answer. The way we respond to God and then He, in turn, to us actually determines the direction our lives will take. Triggers the domino principle that affects all the rest of life. Determine our spiritual growth rate - usefulness to God. At any point, we can hinder/stop His plan for our lives by our rebellious response to Him.
My prayer: Lord, I want to respond to you in obedience. Please give me the wisdom to follow your path. IJN, Amen.… (more)

Lord, Change Me by Evelyn Christenson

HOW TO BECOME THE CHRISTIAN YOU REALLY WANT TO BE Evelyn Christenson writes, "I have discovered through the years that surprising things happen when I pray, 'Lord, change me--don't change my husband, don't change my children, don't change my pastor, change me!, . . . More and more the fact comes into focus that they, and not I, are responsible before God for their actions. But I am responsible for the changes that need to be made in me
