MY COUSIN ELIZABETH

PRAYER MOMENT
Friday 31 May 2013

MY COUSIN ELIZABETH

Pause. Be in the presence of God.

Reading. “Blessed is she who believed that the promise made her by the Lord would be fulfilled.” (Luke 1:39-55)           

Reflection. Elizabeth recognised a faith in Mary that went beyond the “yes, we can” version which we so much admire, for instance, in sports people and politicians. Mary silently believed in the impossible..   


Prayer. Lead me, Lord, to believe that you are at work in my life and that of others. Teach me to hope beyond the securities our age trusts in. Broaden my heart to welcome what we cannot even dream of. Amen.
