Reflection of the week

Posted in Faith

Then Jesus said to him, “What do you want me to do for you?” The blind man said to him, “My teacher, let me see again.” Jesus said to him, “Go; your faith has made you well.” Immediately he regained his sight and followed him on the way. – Mark 10:51-52

Reflection

Eyesight is precious. Now that summer is almost here, I guard it from the strong sun with the right kind of “sunnies”. Insight is just as precious, especially when I receive it in reflection and prayer.

Response

Making requests responsibly means that, before I ask, I understand what I really want Jesus to do for me today.

Action

No matter what answer I am given, I will continue to follow Jesus along the way.

Reflection of the Week - 16th April 2024

Don’t you wonder sometimes how our covenant Lord who is God – Creator, Master, and Teacher, can and does create from nothing and does not need anything or anyone but is helplessly in love with you?

Safe Church Screening

It’s nearly 5 years since the introduction of the Working With Childrens Check (WWCC) became a minimum requirement for those with roles of responsibility within the life of the church.

While I claim no expert knowledge when it comes to sheep, I did find myself relating to Jesus in his role as the Good Shepherd in today's gospel (21st April).

    I note the reflection speaks of insights. A timely reminder to our synod to ensure they get insights into the proposed refugee policies and note that it is urgent that those who want to welcome and support refugees speak out now. I wont be at Synod but hope the church will act in the name of Christ and send a clear message to our prime minister and all in our parliament.
    I am an Australia that welcomes refugees and is appalled by our current treatment of them which is going from bad to worse.
