Therefore confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous person is powerful and effective.

James 5:16

[j-demagno]

All too often, we revert to the way of Jacob. We try to wrestle with God (or perhaps try to cut deals with Him) to get what WE want. In our wrestling we pray, ‘my will done.’ The way of Jesus is difficult, but it is also victorious. We have a champion who has utterly defeated the powers that seek to destroy us. In this season, we thank God that we no longer have to wrestle for a blessing. Rather, in enduring trials and resisting temptation we can pray with confidence, ‘Thy kingdom come, thy will be done.’ May our self-focused striving cease and may our heavenward praise increase.

The most desired gift of love is not diamonds or roses or chocolate. It is focused attention.

Don’t think that you’ve been gone too long to come to Him. God is not some spiritual parole officer waiting for you to fail. If you’ve strayed from prayer, He is not keeping some score. If you don’t feel Him at all, tell Him that: “I don’t feel you right now, God.” Pray with any amount of faith that you have; believe that prayer works; ask for faith if you have none. If you’re mad, tell Him. If you’re ashamed, guilty, confused, afraid, doubtful: tell Him. He can handle that. He is understanding, patient, gracious; He loves you. You’ll soon find you’ll want to talk to Him, because He’s actually pretty awesome to talk to.

Father, capture the hearts of those lost in kingdoms of their own making — ourselves included — and seize our affections for you and you alone, the only true King. Amen.

Why a fox? Why not a horse, or a beetle, or a bald eagle? I’m saying this more as, like, existentialism, you know? Who am I? And how can a fox ever be happy without, you’ll forgive the expression, a chicken in its teeth?

The Britannic, a massive British steamer and sister ship to the Titanic, launches from Belfast Harbor in 1914. The Britannic sank two years later after encountering a German mine field in the Meditteranean sea.No Credit Given

There will be days when we hear the clear promises of God and laugh in disbelief. Still, our heavenly Father will respond—He will wait with us and sustain us. He will turn our restlessness into rest in Him. He who has already put miracles in motion in your life will be faithful to see them through.
