THE KINGDOM AMONG YOU

PRAYER PAUSE


Thursday 10 November 2016, Leo the Great


THE KINGDOM AMONG YOU


Pause. Enter into the stillness of God within.


Reading: “For, you must know, the kingdom of God is among you.” (Luke 17:20-25)



Reflection. The people I know are disappointed and even distraught at the US election results. But I do not know anyone laid off work in Ohio. We often don’t find too much comfort in our politics and those of us, affected by Brexit or Trump, have to go deeper to find what holds us together. Quickly we come to that enduring truth that God has inaugurated his kingdom among us. All these twists and turns will work their way out like a stream finding its way down a mountain. The overall direction we are taking will impose itself on the up and down events we experience.

Prayer. Lord, teach us to trust the dynamic of your kingdom above all other events we daily experience. Amen
