HAPPENINGS WITH KID’S JUNCTION
Sunday Reflection (September 22, 2019)
On the one hand, wealth can be used wisely to help other people, gain friendships, or to secure a financial future. On the other hand, our use of wealth may magnify our inclination to take advantage of situations that benefit only us and no one else. Jesus warns us to not be captivated by the corrupting influence of wealth (Luke 16:1-13).
May we take advantage of what God has given us for good purposes. We all have gifts, we all have possession, yes some more than others, but do not let that prevent you from questioning yourself about what you do with what you possess. May we take advantage of situations to enrich the quality of human life as representative of Christ’s Church.
Prayer for the Week (Sept. 15-Sept. 21)
Let us pray to our faithful Father who always loves us and waits for us: God, our patient Father, it is a joy for you to forgive the repentant sinner. You even allowed your Son to lay down his life to bring us forgiveness and life. Dispose those whom we have offended to forgive us too. May we be ready to forgive wholeheartedly and without regrets those who have hurt us. May we be a people who forgive and receive forgiveness with the goodness you have shown us in Jesus Christ our Lord, who dwells with you and the Holy Spirit, One God now and forevermore. Amen.

Moses interceded for Israel and understood that God seeks to restore and renew sinful people (Exodus 32:7-14). Perhaps more often than not, we desire mercy for ourselves, and justice and judgment for those whom we deem greater sinners than we. Our New Testament Scripture Reading from 1Timothy affirmed God’s grace despite human unrighteousness (1 Timothy 1:12-17).
Jesus, the perfect one, extends grace to us and intercedes for us. God offers us grace, forgiveness, and restoration in Jesus Christ. Oh, to be like Jesus and Moses!
There are certain attitudes and actions on our part that reflect the character of Christ, and perhaps first and foremost is extending grace to those who fail us
in one way or another.
