Whether it’s in prayer or just listening to the quiet around you, allow God’s voice to speak to your heart. Prayer: Lord, in the quiet, speak to my heart. Help me to hear Your voice above all others, and to find peace in Your presence. Amen.     Thank you for your continued prayers and support.    -The podcast image was made by Gloria Francis, a Catholic in Pakistan. A place were it isn't easy to be Christian.
