    We are often tempted to sin as well as tested in our faith. This part of the prayer is a reminder for the source of our power to overcome such temptations.

    Because of the clutter and the noise in our lives, we often fail to see what Jesus does and can do for us. It seems as if we are constantly grasping, but never grabbing hold of that which changes us for the better.

    He walked on water which shows us that nothing can separates us from Him. He made that water into wine which shows us He can create something out of nothing. He ate and drank with people that we would never want to be caught around which shows us that we are all deserving of even the smallest of ...read more
