“The prayer of a righteous person is powerful and effective.” [James 5:16]

Whether we are happy or sad, content or in trouble, healthy or sick, we are called to pray to the Lord with whatever is on our hearts. In good times, we sing songs of praise and thanksgiving; in bad times we cry out for help and healing. When someone is sick, we pray for them and with them, remembering that all things are in God’s hands.
