Pastor Audrey winds up her sermon series on the book of James this week with prayer. The 5th chapter of James has much to say about the subject, and after all the encouragement to live a life of leadership and to reach for and find the wisdom that comes from heaven, encouragement to a life of prayer is an amazing way to end this journey.

turn to God.

call out to God for comfort and help.

Tuesday- September 29th
• At times many of us are joyful about something and we also
forget to give thanks to God and sing!
• Today remember that all good gifts in life are from God.
• Turn to God today in praise for the thing you are joyful
about.

you pray.

Thursday- October 1st
• Confession is hard.
• How do we confess and why?
• Our tradition teaches us the confession is part of cleansing
our soul and getting something off our chest. Although there
is no requirement to tell someone it does help to keep us
accountable.
• Today consider confessing something to someone you trust
and pray for the courage to do it.
