In prayer, expect that you will be changed

Morning: Psalm 102; Malachi 3:1-12; James 5:7-12

Evening: Psalm 107:1-32; Luke 18:1-8

Seasonal booklets of readings and prayers (e.g. for Advent, Christmas, Epiphany and Lent) are one way I encourage myself and others - as Jesus did - ‘to pray always and not to lose heart.’ Jesus suggests that, in prayer, we find justice. Prayer asks not so much for things as for the world to be set right. The answer to prayer is justice, at least in the long run ... In prayer, you open yourself up to be set on the path to justice. In prayer, expect to be changed; do not expect to change God, who is already just.
