During this time of prayer & fasting the Lord is putting on my heart the word, 'purification'. He desires for me to purify my heart through prayer, meditation & study. Through this period I have learned the real meaning of I Corin 13:3-7...Loving one another is much deeper than an expression. I hope the Lord will allow me share this teaching with a group at some point in the future.

Just as God extends grace (unmerited favor) to me, I need to extend grace to others. For instance, when someone says or does something, especially unknowingly, that is upsetting to me, I need to “let it go”, and not react negatively. I can do this by giving it to God and asking Him to forgive me for my reaction, take away my negative feelings and “renew a right spirit within me.” Ps. 51:10
