Meditation – An audience with God
Before the audience begins we have to prepare ourselves. We have to open our hearts and admit our need for God. We have to want the audience and approach God with the humility of one who is desirous of addressing royalty, except that God is Royalty with a capital ‘R’: “You, God, are my God, earnestly I seek you; I thirst for you, my whole being longs for you, in a dry and parched land where there is no water.” (Psalm 63:1 NIV).
The product of ministry

We can look to the future for a more fulfilling and happier existence.
