prayer
Dogging Jesus: Matthew 15:21-28
A kneeling woman does not have far to fall, and by all rights Jesus' insult should have floored her on the spot.
Pray as you can: Romans 8:26-39; Matthew 13:31-33, 44-52
"I don't know how to do this," I said to the nothingness. The Holy Spirit took it from there.
Paul almighty: 2 Corinthians 12:2-10; Mark 6:1-13
Even with Paul's wish to serve, even with his good motives, the Lord does not answer his prayer as he asked or expected.
