Twelve Stones - Lesson 10 - Prayer

Joshua 4:21-22, ‘…When your children shall ask their fathers in time to come, saying, What mean these stones? Then ye shall let your children know…’

The Lord has taken us from captivity and allowed us to enter His Promised Land.
We have been in turn handed the awesome responsibility of walking differently
of loving differently and teaching differently.
Have we forgotten where we came from?
Have we forgotten where we are going?
Let’s not forget our foundation and let’s certainly not forget
to pass the torch to the next generation.


Entreaty, appeal, plea, request, desire, hope and wish.
