Judges 3:2-7, 24-25. Luke 11:5-25

All born into the world of the Most High are children of His love. They are His gift to the world of His creation, each and every one enabled and empowered to fulfil their heavenly Father’s will as they respond to His word in the grace and power of His love.

And all are their brother’s keeper, responsible for the well-being of their friend and neighbour as they are led and guided by Our Holy Spirit. Above all, the children of their heavenly Father’s love are offered to those to whom they are given to tend and to protect, to lead and guide and to lovingly launch into the world as the way is opened up to them.

The Father’s gifts to one are gifts to all, to be received in faith and trust and self-giving. Listen to the word spoken through the gifts and let it instruct, inspire and further you in your following in the steps of the Son of Man.
