Reflection of the Week - 23rd April 2024
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 confess that there is something of Martha within me. Sometimes I make the mistake of thinking that being busy is a virtue, and I worry about the outcome.
I stand corrected, along with the words of Jesus to Martha: “there is need of only one thing. Mary has chosen the better part” (Luke 10:38-42).
Lord, teach me the value of listening to your direction before I act. Show me the “better part” and how to find the right balance between service and stillness. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

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.
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?
