Matthew 7:12
The Golden Rule
12 ‘In
everything do to others as you would have them do to you; for this is the law
and the prophets.
A place
to be….
This is
the Lord’s day; a day when we as disciples of Jesus meet together in community
and celebrate the inauguration of the Kingdom of God in Jesus Christ. Jesus,
the One who saves us from meeting our needs our own way and at the expense of
others; Christ the One anointed by God to bring
all the promises of God to a homeless, Edenless humanity in desperate
need of a place to be the people who our Creator Redeemer made us to be. This
is the most important of responsibilities: to be the community that provides
for each other the experience of the Reign of God and to provide a place for
those who do not know Jesus as Saviour and Lord the One who is the material
expression of His rule of love. Let today be the day that we as disciples of
Jesus take His words seriously and in everything we do; ‘…do to others as you
would have them do to you; for this is the law and the prophets.
Prayer: Loving God and Father this is the day that
we your people meet. We pray that we might live this day and everyday as the
faithful community of Jesus your Son through the power of your indwelling Holy
Spirit and for your glory. Amen
