Jesus Christ had a sense of destiny.
I believe the prayers of 30 years ago are not lost. We may not see the results of our labour or sacrifice immediately, but in due time they will produce much fruit.

A new year is a gift from God, a part of the Divine nature of God.
If you are worshipping God without depending on the Spirit of God, you are serving a god you do not know.
