Thy Kingdom Come was a prayer venture earlier this year in our land and across our world.
We have been pausing each Saturday morning at 8am to revisit the 11 themes raised by the leaders.
Today we are encouraged to take time out with God – Father, Son and Holy Spirit – and spend silent time with Him…..listening…waiting…expecting….
Take the time now – or when you have the opportunity – to spend with God in His presence.
