The Lord clearly spoke to me about preaching the gospel, specifically to those who have been wounded inwardly by life circumstances. To those who feel they are broken, damaged and inwardly dying. In 2012 I didn't understand the cost of carrying this kind of calling but as the song Oceans says I prayed to have trust without borders.
