this is a time of battle and dealing with certain situations. because of the title, I almost didn't pick the topic. I'm glad I did because, I'm preparing to fast and deal with some challenges in my life to become better by serving in kingdom. I know I will have victory and God gets all the glory for allowing this to manifest in my life.

when compared to my past and God's way, I don't know what love is on this Earth. So I look for the this love in myself. If you have experienced real love on this planet, then God bless you.

I am thankful for Encounter. The meditations became a part of my life a little over a year ago. I recommend them to anyone who needs to meditate. The Lord has spoken to me through these meditations. Thank you for your obedience to the Lord in creating this platform for His Word and resource for His people.
