One of the most common prayers in the Bible is the prayer for justice. The first thing we can do is accept our weakness towards issues of justice. Weakness drives us to prayer to the God of Justice.

Jesus is enough. He calls us to pray with hands wide-open to receive and give back because all we receive is from our heavenly Father.

Repentance is a sign of spiritual life. Jesus calls us to repent and turn to him and he will receive us, heal us, and guide us.

Will you ask Jesus, the great Intercessor, to pray the true prayers that we need to overcome our sins and faults and bring us closer to God and his righteousness?

Jesus came to restore power unto us, power not to sin, power to overcome in and through him, and power to persevere. WE are powerless, but he is power.

The cross makes suffering meaningful. Jesus came as a servant who would suffer, and through his suffering conquered the world. Through Jesus, we also can conquer our suffering and sin.

Forgiving others brings great healing, but what about feeling forgiven of our sins? Do we carry out guilt with us? Or, do we allow Jesus' forgiveness to penetrate deep in our hearts?

Many of our issues may seem only on the surface, but all our problems come from deep within, our sinful condition. We need healing deeper than the surface, we need total healing that only Jesus can do.

Enlightenment is made of two aspects: grief and grace. The Lord does not dispense his wisdom and kindness without cost. Denying God's signs brings grief, but his grace overcomes all things.

Jesus is the answer to all our doubts. Faith is not about facts and reason; instead, it's about a relationship with God that grows daily through the reading of his word.
