077 Purpose in Preparation #1 - ‘The Gift of Need’

from Firm Foundation Focus · host Alex Gray

Alex shares from his personal reading of Miles J. Stanford’s The Green Letters, exploring how the Father Himself gives us our needs so that we might discover that only He can truly meet them. Drawing from the chapter Preparation, Alex reflects on how every hunger, longing, and unmet place in our lives is an invitation from the Father to depend on Him and receive from His life. This episode is a reminder that every need we experience is designed by Him to draw us deeper into His love, to bring us into rest, and to teach us that He alone is our source and satisfaction, and only He can meet the needs He has placed inside of us.Listener's Guide Here: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1CghKe2NP9ZMslL3fq12ijjq6DhciUFuh?usp=sharingNancy McCready Ministries here:https://nancymccready.com/podcast/About AlexAlex is from the UK and he teaches and disciples across nations after years serving in Poland.
