Resumen de la Escritura

Jacob is attacked one night by an unknown assailant and wrestles with him until morning. We discover that the assailant comes from God, so Jacob is given a new name, Israel. The psalmist is feeling unjustly accused and cries out to God. He is confident that he would be vindicated if all the facts were known. In Romans, Paul deals with difficult theological issues. He states that he would sacrifice his own soul if his fellow Israelites would accept Christ. Jesus teaches a crowd that is growing hungry, and his disciples are trying to figure out how to feed them. They see only what they lack, while Jesus asks them what they have. This story is a lesson about offering God what we have and trusting God.

Psalm 17:1-7, 15

1 Listen to what’s right, LORD; pay attention to my cry! Listen closely to my prayer; it’s spoken by lips that don’t lie! 2 My justice comes from you; let your eyes see what is right! 3 You have examined my heart, testing me at night. You’ve looked me over closely, but haven’t found anything wrong. My mouth doesn’t sin. 4 But these other people’s deeds? I have avoided such violent ways by the command from your lips. 5 My steps are set firmly on your paths; my feet haven’t slipped. 6 I cry out to you because you answer me. So tilt your ears toward me now listen to what I’m saying! 7 Manifest your faithful love in amazing ways because you are the one who saves those who take refuge in you, saving them from their attackers by your strong hand. 15 But me? I will see your face in righteousness; when I awake, I will be filled full by seeing your image.

The Psalms provide a manual of sorts for how to pray. Spoiler alert: There is no one right way to pray, so long as your direct address to God is authentic, honest, and full of genuine feeling.

Many are apprehensive about praying out loud, in front of others, or even...

God, grant me the courage to approach you with honesty and rawness, knowing that you hear my prayer. Amen.
