We are glad you’re here!
We desire to offer HOPE to those that are hurting.
Maybe you feel all ALONE even when you are in a crowd. Many of us have looked in all the wrong places for something to ease the PAIN deep inside. God knows all about it and only He can help.
God sent us true HOPE when He sent His Son, Jesus Christ. You can talk to God just like you talk to your best friend. He LOVES you. Tell Him what is going on, He will listen. You must also listen to God when He talks back to you. Try it, GOD is there for you!
Please stop and say “Hello” at the Prayer Stand in Ligonier.
Is following Jesus difficult?
No, the Bible (Luke 10:27) says that the two most important things are; …“You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your strength, and with all your mind; and your neighbor as yourself.”
What does it mean to “love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your strength, and with all your mind“? Think of it this way, how do you know that your own child loves you? The best way is when they obey you because they love you and not because you make them.
This is what the Bible says:
John 15:14 “You are My (Jesus) friends if you do what I command you.”
John 14:15 “If you love Me, you will keep My commandments.”
John 14:21 “He who has My commandments and keeps them is the one who loves Me; and he who loves Me will be loved by My Father, and I will love him and will disclose Myself to him.”
John 15:10 “If you keep My commandments, you will abide in My love; just as I have kept My Father’s commandments and abide in His love.”
1 John 2:3 “By this we know that we have come to know Him, if we keep His commandments.”
2 John 1:6 “And this is love, that we walk according to His commandments This is the commandment, just as you have heard from the beginning, that you should walk in it.”
John 8:51 “Truly, truly, I say to you, if anyone keeps My word he will never see death.”
1 John 2:4 “The one who says, “I have come to know Him,” and does not keep His commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him;”
