Jesus’ work on earth was directed towards those living in darkness. The Son of Man came to seek and save the lost. That’s why He said of Himself: “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will not walk in darkness but will have the light of life.” The discipleship initiated by Jesus…

Noticing how the guests were choosing the best seats at the table, Jesus said to them: “When you are invited by someone to a wedding feast, do not sit in the place of honor, lest someone more distinguished than you has been invited by him, and the one who invited both of you comes and…

Jesus concluded His model prayer by inviting us to say: “And do not let us yield to temptation, but deliver us from evil.” Temptation is an invitation to break God’s laws and to sever the bridge of friendship with the Creator. Of course, temptation never tells us this. It only presents us with an attractive…

Jesus was on a boat with His disciples when suddenly a great storm arose, and the waves crashed with all their fury. The boat was tossed uncontrollably, and the disciples were filled with fear.

And near the end of His prayer model, Jesus added: “And forgive us our sins, as we forgive those who sin against us.” A very important part of restoring our communion with God is to confess our sins. To sin is to miss the mark, to walk against the Lord’s will, and to face the…
