While worship may look many different ways, and our cultural heritage is important to our specific peoples
We must look at prayer in a new way. Some Prayer is one part action and one part Thank God it finally happened.
Applicable needs are a different story.
Bringing them into the church.
Bringing our needs to the table.
We use an anonymous index card, for applicable needs, having the preacher hold the name of the person in need. Aloud he reads to the congregation:
______________________________________________________________
"I've just gotten a good job across town, and my family is using our car, I live near _____. And the location is _______. I only need a ride there at 8 AM, I'll figure out how to get home."

Can anyone answer this prayer?
A church member raises their ✋.
Only if the prayer can be answered will the exchange of information be handled.
Worship is individualized, and our natural father is unseen, seen through us.
I used to say God was somewhere in-between people, like joints on a healthy body, or lubrication between bones. In trust, between different communities, no matter how different they are.
I used to say God was found inside each of us, and we can get closer to him through the deeds we take, however we may feel we may get closer to him.
I used to say God was up in the next afterlife, welcoming us to a new life.
I used to say God knows more about me, than even I do. Continue growing into his image.
Now, I just thank god, I have you in my life, the life we have, together. Let's get some hot chocolate.
All are very much true. God is found in timing, in the beauty of that Thank God moment.
He is only as visible in our lives as we allow him to be.
Let God be Good 😊 love others, learn to love yourself, be kind, be open, be strong, be forgiving, but be open.
The walk with our own insecurities and sin is a tough road to walk. Acceptance is about accepting where you are. And continue to grow in the direction you need.
You are worth it.
Your conscious may be hard on you, focus on it, just for today.
One small character defect at a time.
You are worth it.
The knowledge of the truth only expands my idea of God, not erases him.
There are no consequences for regeneration, or by knocking on heaven's door at death.
This is not a test, it is preferance, and whether you decide to pass away assistedly or regenerate into family youth.
~Elderly will spectate youth permanently~
Judgement at death, your held to a higher standard now, don't do anything if you wouldn't say, "it was an accident, or I was just young" whether that be, easy & laidback, or religious, what we're going for in the world, is pretty much a mixture of everything, but leaving behind that which is wrong in any way. Thing is, we should be aligning into a similar state in the next life. With values in non-conflict of another, we can all go to the same heaven and co-exist in very much the same manner as we develop here.
Meaning: Be good, in times past, they would disembody somebody conciousness that commits atrocious acts and excommunicate them from the universe. So regeneration to get out of sin is not possible. You should be good here, there's no reason you can't be good here.
If things begin to digress into an evil state on earth, people can pray for salvation and get to a good place.
Be Good
To one another
To yourself
Do what is right
Love, and live with honest intentions
My belief is people are inherently good if given the opportunity. Don't let me down.
