HAPPENINGS WITH KID’S JUNCTION
Prayer for the Week (Sept. 8-Sept. 14)
Let us pray that we follow Jesus consistently through the leading of the Holy Spirit: God our Father, we have accepted your invitation to follow your Son, Jesus, as his disciples. May the Holy Spirit give us the wisdom and strength to take our faith seriously and to accept our task in life with all its consequences. May the Holy Spirit guide us in the way of your Son without fear or discouragement, for we are certain that Jesus will lead us to you, our loving God forever and ever, Amen.

Sunday Reflection (September 8, 2019)
We Christians have been far from perfect. Christians have justified slavery and segregation with Scripture. Christians have used the non-violent Jesus as a pretext for war. As an individual representative of Jesus Christ, I can say that I have been far from perfect, yet there is hope (Jeremiah 18:4).
Yet, through the Holy Spirit, God reshapes us and remolds us into beautiful instruments of his will, no matter our position or location! We become the people for whom we are destined in Christ Jesus.
Sunday Reflection (September 1, 2019)
When we think of the Old Testament we may have the image of God on Mt. Sinai as was mentioned last week. The Israelites could not even approach the mountain and Moses trembled with fear. However, one aspect of the Old Testament that we may overlook is the Old Testament’s thorough emphasis upon fairness and justice in society (Psalm 82).
Jesus expressed the spirit of the Scripture in his teachings and manner of life, and part of this teaching and manner highlighted God rejection of the proud and arrogant in favor of the poor and dispossessed. Jesus encourages us to invite the poor, dispossessed, down and out, and the lame in body or spirit
(Luke 14:1, 12-14).
God our Father has welcomed us into a fellowship with God through Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit. May we welcome others and invite others into our lives when the opportunity presents itself, but do not let that be an excuse because we may have to create the opportunity.
