Prayer:
God of love, we open ourselves to
You today… we give to You our emotions that are making us restless…. we give to
You the turbulence that is not making us balanced… we give to You to hearts and
minds and souls so that we can receive Your love anew each day. Amen.
Read St. Luke 21: 29 – 31
Jesus tells the disciples to look at the
fig tree. When the leaves are on the
tree, the disciples know that summer is
near. The growing season is upon them. Even so,
Jesus tells the disciples, you know when these things happen that the Kingdom of God is near.
Read these verses over again and ask
yourself if you find these words inspiring or concerning.
What does it mean that the Kingdom of God
is near? What does it mean for you
that God is near?
Do you sense God is in your life? Why or why not?
Take a few minutes and reflect upon the
phrase -- “the Kingdom of God is near”.
How will knowing that you are part of the kingdom of God inspire you to live a life
of love?
Prayer:
Heavenly Father, we know that
Your Kingdom is near. We rejoice that
the Your Kingdom is near. We open our hearts and minds and souls to
Your life and Your love, knowing that You are always with us. Help us to open ourselves to You this
day. Today we stop and look up and pray
for Your guidance so that we can be inspired to live a life of Your love. Amen.
