Love revealed by Jesus Christ | A prayer to Jesus to help us to unlock our hearts and so begin to pray
Dear Jesus, I want to start by praising you for who you are and all that you have done for me. You are the creator of the universe, the saviour of my soul, and the source of all goodness and love. I am so grateful for your grace and mercy, which are new every morning.
As I begin to pray, I want to acknowledge my sins and shortcomings before you. I know that I have not always lived up to your standards, and there are areas of my life where I have fallen short. I confess my wrongdoing and ask for your forgiveness. Please help me to turn away from my sins and follow you with all my heart.
I thank you for your love and forgiveness, which are freely given to me. I receive your grace and let go of any guilt or shame that I may be carrying. Help me to walk in freedom and joy, knowing that your love covers all my sins. I know that confession is not just a one-time event, but an ongoing process. Please continue to reveal to me any areas of my life that need to be confessed and surrendered to you.
Thank you, Jesus, for hearing my prayer and for your unwavering love and faithfulness. I pray that you would guide me in the path of righteousness and lead me in your ways. I also bring my requests and concerns to you, trusting that you are listening and working all things together for my good. In your holy name, I pray. Amen.
Saint Justin Martyr’s account of Christian Eucharistic worship, written around 155 AD, is one of the earliest and most significant descriptions of the liturgy outside of the New Testament.

Elizabeth is introduced in Luke 1:5 as a woman ‘of the daughters of Aaron,’ indicating her priestly lineage, which complements her husband Zachariah’s role as a priest ‘of the course of Abia’ (Luke 1:5). Both Elizabeth and Zachariah are described as ‘righteous before God, walking in all the commandments and ordinances of the Lord blameless’ (Luke 1:6). This emphasizes their piety and faithfulness to God’s law. Despite their righteousness, the couple is childless because Elizabeth is barren, and both are advanced in age (Luke 1:7) [ … ]
The parable of the prodigal son is among the most famous of the parables which Jesus teaches us. Indeed the phrase ‘prodigal son’ is familiar to English speakers who might not tend to read the Bible very often if at all. In the parable of the prodigal son, the story Jesus tells is so homely and familiar to our lives, and to our most basic human and family instincts, that even without the deeper meanings as we interpret the parable, it would be powerfully moving to hear as a tale of estrangement and difficulty followed by forgiveness and reconciliation through love [ … ]
