How Righteous Am I?

Scripture: James 5: [16] Therefore confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous man is powerful and effective.

Observation: Beside Teri I don’t really talk or confide in anyone else. I don’t have an accountability partner or someone I can call to pray with. Even now I’m writing this having one of the worst colds I remember having and I can’t think of anyone to call to pray with me. I talk to several people at church but it’s superficial and for that moment. To be a righteous man I believe you need to be around people and to be part of the body and now that I’m alone at home I see how I have distanced myself from others.

Application: I need to be more part of the church and others lives. I need others and I believe they need me to. I want to be righteous and part of God’s plan and I know His plan involves touching others with the gifts He has given me.

Prayer: Dear Lord guide me to others and may I not be selfish with the time you have given me. May I use it to be with others and to be part of your plan for our lives. Heal me if it is your will or open my eyes to see why I’m suffering now and that it wouldn’t be wasted time.
