Now that the Feast of Shelters is over, the people gather again to confess they have not been faithful to God and commit to follow Him in the future. Their prayer follows typical patterns of reviewing Israel鈥檚 history and highlighting the great things God has done for them, as well as how unfaithful the people have been.
The story of everyone鈥檚 life is probably similar, but how often do you admit it? Sometimes prayers can turn into lists of things we want from God, and we forget to admit we don鈥檛 actually deserve the things for which we are asking.
