4. You need Communication<\/strong><\/p>\n

By communication I do not mean chatting and speaking with your friends, family or spouse.<\/p>\n

I am talking about genuine and sincere communication with God.<\/p>\n

He is the designer and architect of your life. He is the Alpha and Omega, the Author and finisher of our faith.<\/p>\n

He is the one who plants the idea of the journey in your heart, he called you to come.<\/p>\n

There is a need to communicate with God every step of the way.<\/p>\n
