Hebrews 13:18- Pray for us, for our conscience is clear and we want to live honorably in everything we do. (New Living Translation)

Some things take time. Someone might need more time to revert back from their wilderness journey. Thus, we must provide that someone with ample time to learn, for our lives are not perfect. When we do well, there is no confetti, or people doing somersaults. For our reality, as imperfect creatures is to wither and to fall. However, some way or another we find a lighted arrow that points us in a certain direction. After while, one arrow becomes four, and four arrows become 20, and so on. We begin to gather a confidence likened to lions, who remain kings of the jungle. Why? Because there is somebody interceding for us. In fact, there are many people lighting up arrows to show us the way home. Therefore, wherever we are in life we can remain assured that OTHERS are praying for us. For when we do return from whence we came, we to shall be victorious. (#God’sway)
