For many people, these recent times have been difficult and anxiety-inducing. Jobs are not as stable as they once seemed to be, the economy is unclear, and families are having to learn to make do with less and less.
I find myself battling worry and anxiety more often as things I once took for granted are shifting constantly. But something remarkable is taking shape at the same time. I am beginning to discover a prayer life I never knew I had. One that gives me unspeakable peace and a quiet strength I cannot explain! In James 5:13-18, it talks about how prayer should be central to our daily lives. The word steadfast ties in directly with how we should pray: our prayer should be fixed on Christ, firm, and unwavering.
"The prayer of a righteous person has great power as it is working."(v. 16)
What impact would prayer have in your life if you sought to pray more steadfastly throughout the day?
