Prayer Wall 2/8/17

But for you who fear my name, the Sun of Righteousness will rise with healing in his wings. And you will go free, leaping with joy like calves let out to pasture. ~ Malachi 4:2And may you have the power to understand, as all God's people should, how wide, how long, how high, and how deep His love is. ~ Ephesians 3:18
