		<description><![CDATA[By Wilson Bunn I have been realizing in my life lately that there is a huge difference between the counterfeit freedoms, securities, comforts, and wealth of the world, and the true ones offered by Christ.

It&#8217;s not that I don&#8217;t have friends; I would have to say I&#8217;m blessed in that department.

Do we honestly expect God to act like a cosmic vending machine, dispensing life-plans as long as we press the right buttons and say the right prayers? Recently, however, I was going through some inner turmoil and stumbled upon an insight into his will that you [...]]]></description>
