When something happens in life that is unsettling, we are not our best. This blog extends “numbers” to call. For instance we often need support when we are in sorrow, feel betrayed, are anxious, have made a big mistake, feel guilty and scared, or simply wanting God’s help. The “numbers” are intended to connect you with that support for whatever you are going through.

Notice how differently you feel after you make your “call.” It can feel as if you have entered a “different space.” There is a reason for this. If you would like my thoughts as to why this is so, please enter a comment below so you can receive a response.

At any point, if you would like prayer, send that request through a “comment” below. I will see it the same day–and will begin to pray for you.

There is no charge for any of my ministry efforts. (But there is a donations button available, if this feels best to you.)
