      By designating places of business like the grocery store, school or post office, these prayer posts become visual reminders when you walk by the way, also to pray for the people in those places.

      REMEMBER WHO YOU ARE

      For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand so that we would walk in them.
