HAPPENINGS WITH KID’S JUNCTION
Sunday Reflection (September 10, 2023)
After the destruction of the Temple the ancient Judeans confronted their sins and accepted responsibility for their sins. When we turn to the Lord, the Lord is already there (Ezekiel 33:7-11). In a small sense in his day, Ezekiel’s words were heard and caused a response. Yet, this response came only after much pain and turmoil.
God is always reaching toward us and when we recognize our sins with the intent to repent and turn from our sins, God is there to lead us. The Psalmist gives us courage: “Teach me, O Lord, the way of your statutes, and I will observe it to the end. Give me understanding, that I may keep your law and observe it with my whole heart. Lead me in the path of your commandments, for I delight in it. Turn my heart to your decrees and not to selfish gain. Turn my eyes from looking at vanities; be gracious to me according to your word.”
Prayer for the Week (September 10-September 16, 2023)
Let us pray to God our Father so that we sustain one another on the way to him: Lord God, our Father, your Son Jesus Christ has brought us together as a community of sinners that you have pardoned. May the Holy Spirit unify us and give us the strength to care for one another and do what we are able to remain a living, forgiving, and welcoming community; representing Christ in this world. Amen.
