Sunday Reflection upon James 5:13-20
We yearn for the day when all will be healed and restored, but until then, we live in the brokenness of our biological existence that brings pain and growth, death and decay. We also live in a brokenness that requires the confession of our sins because of the way we often treat one another. Our prayers for healing and confession are not futile but potent and efficacious, offering us hope and reassurance. There are various ways to confess our sins: Privately with a priest or minister, with each other, and publicly in a corporate worship situation as we do each Sunday.
The confession of sin is the first step toward reconciliation. May confessing our sin lead to repentance with the ultimate hope of reconciliation. Our prayers for healing and confession are powerful and effective. As a Christian community, we are responsible for fostering an environment of forgiveness, understanding, and reconciliation where all members feel safe and supported in their faith journey.
Let us pray that the Spirit of God be alive with us and among all people: God, you grant us the power to do mighty works but not the right to deny that power to others. We come before you confidently, for we have seen your likeness in Jesus Christ. We do not pray that our sight be perfect and our understanding complete, but that you be a lamp unto our feet and a guide for our journey through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
