A lesson in prayer

Luke 11:1-4   The disciples asked for a lesson and this is what they got.

“‘Father,[a]
hallowed be your name,

Help us to respect who You are by honouring Your name

your kingdom come.[b]

May your Kingdom come to earth so it's just like heaven.
3 Give us each day our daily bread.

Give us what we need like food and shelter and help us to be thankful for what we have
4 Forgive us our sins,
    for we also forgive everyone who sins against us.[c]

Forgive us to the degree that we forgive others
And lead us not into temptation.[d]’”

And please don't lead us into temptation

In Jesus Name Amen

Our neighbour

  Luke 10:29-37 During this year of covid we've been forced to slow down.  I'm wondering if it's helping us to see our neighbours in need.  Lord Jesus, please help us not to be so busy going about Your work we miss seeing our neighbours in need.

Herod

  Luke 23:8-12 This passage says a lot about Herod.  First of all he wanted to see Jesus because he had heard about Him.  Herod was hoping Jesus would perform a miracle for him but Jesus wasn't going to be played.  Jesus didn't answer Herod's questions and His accusers seemed to be heard by Herod so Herod started to mock Jesus but Herod didn't find anything wrong with him.  Herod sent Him back to Pilate,,,and what is interesting is Herod and Pilate became friends that day. Lord Jesus, when satan sends the mockers help us to be wise and know when to speak and when not to speak.  Give us the courage to stand for what is right, in Your time and way. Amen.

Fringe folk

  Luke 9:49-50 Have you ever noticed some non-church goers are amazing people, doing amazing things?  Jesus says, if they're not against us they're for us.  Lord Jesus, help us not to discourage people who are on the fringes of the church.  Help us see how they are helping in Your Kingdom and celebrate their goodness.
