A Prayer for This Week

Loving God,

Teach me to slow down in a world that is always rushing.

Help me to lay aside the things that can wait,

to stop striving,

to quiet my busy mind,

and to breathe in the peace of your presence.

May I learn to move at the pace of grace,

to find joy in the quiet moments,

and to trust that the world will keep turning

even when I stop pedalling.

For you are my refuge and my rest,

my peace in the busyness,

and my companion in the stillness.

Help me, Lord, to do less, to be more,

and to rest in the knowledge that I am held in your love.

Amen.

1 Thessalonians 2:11,12

11 For you know that we dealt with each of you as a father deals with his own children, 12 encouraging, comforting and urging you to live lives worthy of God, who calls you into his kingdom and glory.

The Great Commandment

Matthew 22:37,38,39

Jesus replied: “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’ This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbour as yourself.’

Matthew 22:21,22

²¹ Then he said to them, ‘So give back to Caesar what is Caesar’s, and to God what is God’s.’

²² When they heard this, they were amazed. So they left him and went away.

Philippians 4:1

Therefore, my brothers and sisters, you whom I love and long for, my joy and crown, stand firm in the Lord in this way, dear friends!
