What it Takes to Grow (oil) by Polly Castor

I have been following my daily prayer time with choosing one thing I had pondered while praying, and then writing it down in a journal. The idea is then to stick to this idea, bringing it forward at the helm of thought into every aspect of that day.

This is a new series, so you might want to check out Prayer Nuggets #1 here,  Prayer Nuggets #2 here, Prayer Nuggets #3 here, and Prayer Nuggets #4 here. The references below with the abbreviation “SH” refer to Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures, by Mary Baker Eddy.
