HAPPENINGS WITH KID’S JUNCTION
Sunday Reflection (June 9, 2019)
The way that Jesus addressed God was “Abba.” He taught his disciples to address God in this manner. We address God the same way. No, we do not use the Aramaic word “Abba,” but we do begin the Lord’s Prayer with “Our Father” which affirms a closeness with God that has been extended to us Gentiles through Christ who restores all human-kind to God (Romans 8:14-17).
God invites us to participate and draw closer to God and one another; thus, we serve God not out of fear, coercion, or blind obedience; but, rather out of the freedom that arises from our love of God and others. If you have little love for someone or a group of people ask yourself why? Then, ask to be led by the Holy Spirit for growth in the love for God and others.
Prayer for the Week (June 9-June 15)
Let us pray that the Father send us the Holy Spirit: God our Father, may the Holy Spirit surprise us with his fire and vigor. May the Holy Spirit renew our days, love, and lives. May the Holy Spirit bring us tenderness and joy as well as openness to one another and the courage to stand up for all that is right and just. May the Holy Spirit unite us and lead us to you. We ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen.

Prayer for the Week (June 2-June 8)
Let us pray that the Spirit of the risen Lord guide us: God our Father, our risen Lord Jesus Christ lives now in your presence. When we keep looking for him in the clouds, help us turn to the task he has given us to do here on earth. May we learn to recognize his face in our brothers and sisters. We make this prayer in the name of him whom we await, Jesus Christ, our risen Lord. Amen.
