From the Ministry Team
In the final sermon of our series on the Trinity this week, we think about prayer. Looking back at last year’s sermon series about different ways to pray, we consider again how we pray to, and in, our triune God.
Meanwhile, readings set for this, the 8th Sunday after Trinity, find King Solomon in conversation with God, who asks Solomon what he should give him. Solomon asks for the wisdom he will need to be a good king. Very pleased with Solomon’s request, God grants Solomon ‘a wise and discerning mind; no one like you has been before you and no one like you shall arise after you’.
In this increasingly turbulent world, let us all continue to pray fervently for God to grant wisdom to the leaders of Earth’s nations. In the gospel of Matthew, Jesus offers his disciples a treasure trove of vignettes to help them, and us, think and learn about how the kingdom of heaven can be better understood. ‘Have you understood all this?’ he asks. ‘Yes’, his disciples reply, apparently confidently! Well, those of us listening but still engaging with mental and spiritual wrestling to better understand and to grow in faithfulness, can happily continue to take comfort from Paul’s proclamation in Romans: ‘I am convinced that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor rulers, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers, nor height, nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord.’
May God grant us the inspiration of His Holy Spirit to enable us to deepen both our understanding and our faith, as we study together.
Blessings, Wendy
