Prayer and Fasting with Maria Bower :: (Episode 172)

Maria Bower shares her testimony of faith in this episode. All we can say is buckle up! God does a work in her heart and uses Chrissie in the process. Maria was searching, tired of religion, and wanted a relationship. And God answered her prayers.   From her first prayer for direction and clarity to her everyday prayers, she unrelentingly trusts God. She doesn't question His plan for her life or her family's, and she walks confidently because of His love for her. She is a woman of deep faith.   We loved hearing about Maria's faith journey so much that we ran out of time! But she wanted to ensure our listeners were reminded of two things: Maria reminds us NOT to get discouraged in our daily bible reading. No time to read? Then listen!   God doesn't want to guilt us into spending time with Him. As a desire of our heart, we want to spend time with Him, and sometimes listening to His word in the car, on a walk, or at home is the best way to "hear" from Him! She also reminds us not to lean on our own understanding. We'll never see the whole picture as God does, so we'll never understand everything that happens in this world.   Rest in Him today!   Thanks for joining us for this episode of The Wonder Podcast!   Hit subscribe, and please tell your friends!
