         (Dad:) This Family was started in prayer, this Family grew in prayer, and this Family will continue on in prayer! Through prayer we're conquering the world! So keep taking all those burdens and trials and tests and problems to the Lord first in prayer. Then trust Him to work things out, and He will!
         When Jesus was on Earth, He took all the burdens to His Father in prayer. He didn't let the problems of the people harden Him, but He kept casting all His burdens on the Father, and He was moved with compassion for the multitudes as a result. So keep casting all your burdens on Jesus.
         Never underestimate the power of prayer! I know it's a temptation to always want to do more in the flesh, in the physical, especially for you young talented spunky ones. But if all you can do is pray, you can rest assured that's a lot! So pray! Pray alone in your closet and pray with others! Pray for these different ones you meet who feel frustrated and at the end of their rope. Pray for the adults and pray for the young people.
         Regarding all these would-be problems and snags and things our Homes are coming up against, it's all part of the Lord working in people's lives. But if you just keep praying and just keep hearing fresh from God every day, you're all gonna be just fine! That's the greatest thing you can do and the greatest thing to encourage others to do!
         Like I taught, the greatest thing each new generation has to learn for itself is to follow God and hear fresh from Him every day! If you're hearing fresh from God every day, if you take time to hear from Him, He's gonna take time to straighten out every problem.
