not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a

ransom for many.

‘Love your enemies, do good, and lend, expecting nothing in return’ (Luke 6.5).

After reading this together, ask them to lend you their car, or laptop, or cash card. And see what … reaction suddenly swings into view after all.

It will be alright in

the end.

If it is not alright,

it is not the end.

'Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name,

your kingdom come, your will be done on earth as it is in heaven.

Compassion

Speaking volumes without words. Writing graciously with compassion. Incarnational.

Let us enter the city with God today,And sing hosannas to our king,Let us turn our backs on the powers that grasp and control,And open our hearts to the son of God riding on a donkey.

Let us join his parade,Surrounded by outcasts and prostitutes, the blind and the leper.Let us follow the one who brought freedom and peace,And walk in solidarity with the abandoned and oppressed.

Let us shout for joy at Christ’s coming and join his disciples,Welcoming the broken, healing the sick, dining with outcasts.Let us touch and see as God draws near,Riding in triumph towards the Cross
