Praying for my world—and ours

When someone experiences even a bit of the liberation that comes through spiritual healing—the physical and mental freedom that results from being renovated from within—it's natural to want to share it with others. "Why, this is for the whole world," we may have said to ourselves.

This is what may have been on the prophet Isaiah's mind when he told the Hebrews, "Enlarge the place of thy tent, and let them stretch forth the curtains of thine habitations" (Isa. 54:2).
