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?
Posted in Faith
Lord, there is so much human need around us; it’s tempting to withdraw into our cave, and let it all pass by.
‘I was hungry and you fed me, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in … Whatever you did for one of the least important of these brothers of mine, you did for me.’ – Matthew 25:35, 40
Prayer
Jesus, imprint on my heart that whatever I do for others, I do for you, and whatever I don't do for others, I don't do for you.
Lord, give me the grace to be willing to pay the price of truly loving people; of making sacrifices in time and energy. Give me your heart so that you can love through me.

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).
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.
