Prayer
Lord Jesus,
give us the courage to
take up our cross each day and follow You with
faith and love.
Help us to choose Your will
over our own and to trust
that You are always with us.
May our lives reflect Your goodness and bring hope
to those we meet.
Amen.
‘He broke the loaves and gave them to the disciples, and the disciples gave them to the crowds.’
Matthew 14:19
Jesus reminds us today that being His disciple means taking up our cross and following Him. The Christian life is not always the easiest path that leads to true life and lasting joy.
Each day we are given opportunities to follow Christ through kindness, forgiveness, honesty and faithful service.
When we place our trust in Him, even our struggles become momenmts of grace.
May we have the courage this week to choose God's way over our own, confident that the cross always leads to the joy of the Resurrection.
