Reflection of the Week - 9th April 2024
Jesus meets Thomas the way he meets all of us—wherever we are when we decide we are ready.
Posted in Faith
In this season of Advent, leading up to the celebration of the birth of a King, take a moment to stop, and to think: Why was Jesus born in the first place?
He, himself, gives us the answer:
Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. The one who believes in me will live, even though they die.” – John 11:25
No ordinary baby, no ordinary man, Jesus came to earth with an extraodinary mission. He came to grant life to those who believe in him – life beyond what we experience here on earth, right now.
Prayer
Jesus, thank you for becoming the Son of Man. You left your heavenly glory for an earthly stable, giving everything – including your own life – so that we may have true life again. Help me remember this and treasure it in my heart, all of my days. Amen.

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?
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.
