faith, hope and believing

"When it comes to faith and hope and believing, I am not the person you want to listen to. That would be Charlie Wade.

Charlie owns the bike shop about a half mile from my house. He calls himself a closet Pentecostal and loves to read books by Brennan Manning and Thomas Merton, and he loves to pray.

He believes that the impossible can and does happen. He believes that God can and will answer his prayers. If he prays for rain, he brings an umbrella."

-adapted from Girl on a Swing by Nancy Kennedy

if we pray for souls, we must expect them! and get ready for them.
