Reflection of the Week - 26 June 2019

Posted Jun 26, 2019 in Faith

Let us pause to reflect in the middle of this year,

reflect on the events in our lives and the issues of this week, this year.

 

As we pause, we are mindful of the thoughts and hopes

we thought about six months ago,

and the racing, flying of this year.

 

In our reflection, we remember

the most important things in our lives,

the sacrifice of Jesus, the love of the Father

and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit.

Mark 12:29-31

"The most important one," answered Jesus, "is this:

'Hear, O Israel, the Lord our God,

the Lord is one.

Love the Lord your God

with all your heart

and with all your soul

and with all your mind

and with all your strength.'

The second is this: 'Love your neighbour as yourself.'

There is no commandment greater than these."

Lord Jesus,

we are sorry for the times that we allow the events in our lives to overshadow your love and purpose.

Help us to always see you,

to turn to you first in times of trouble or heartbreak,

to rely on you for our peace, our strength, and our very being.

 

Author of Life,

You are our Lord, our God,

You are our all!

Thank you for your love,

for giving your life

so that we can live in your love each day.

I choose to love you today

with all my heart,

with all my soul,

with all my mind

and with all my strength.

 

Help me to love my neighbour as myself

and to be a witness to you

in all I say and do.

 

I give you praise,

for you deserve it!
