Be Restored

The ultimate restoration is being in the right relationship with Jesus Christ. Being with Him in heaven for eternity is the reward for our salvation. The problem is until then we live in a fallen broken world where there is much hurt and pain. James writes to the Christ follower on how to handle life's brokenness.


 Is anyone among you in trouble? Let them pray. Is anyone happy? Let them sing songs of praise.  Is anyone among you sick? Let them call the elders of the church to pray over them and anoint them with oil in the name of the Lord.  And the prayer offered in faith will make the sick person well; the Lord will raise them up. If they have sinned, they will be forgiven.  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 5:13-16

Keep praying - the Lord hears you. Tap in to God's power and righteousness. He'll see you through this world and in to the next.

Amen?
