"Access the Power" as a Pray-er
 
Read the sermon
  As we sang in the last song, we remember that we are God’s children. Scripture tells us, even in the Book of Genesis, that we were created in God’s image. Because of that, we have this built-in longing inside of us to know our Creator, to know this God is listening to us down here. As we grow older we begin to seek, to listen to our Heavenly Father.
