It's Only A Matter Of Time - eBook

Listening to a friend's story about helping a young woman, all alone in the world and dying of cancer, sparked a deep thought in me. What if God orchestrates an aswer to prayer years before the prayers has been spoken? When I considered that God transcends time and yet chooses to be a part of it, I wondered: Can He work in any time frame to accomplish His purposes and allow us to be partof the process? Does He recruit us to work hand in hand with Him in time, like two hands of a clock? The book addresses a primary goal of all prayer: to diminish distance in all its forms. Under this umbrella possible solutions are offered for many issues that divide people from each other. Most of the time we are the answers to the prayers of others, yet at times God must go it alone. Prayer, communication, distance, and time are all related and are the setting for this journey of faith. Take this journey of faith with me and discover, as did I, that prayer not only affects the present and the future, but remarkably, even the past.
