Partnership
‘Anyone who loves God must also love their brother and sister’ (1 John 4:21).
What do you think God uses to keep us faithful to him?
One of the chief means is our fellowship or partnership with our fellow believers.
Mothers Union is a wonderful experience of such partnership.
But local churches are amazing. They give us partners in the service of Christ.
They are models for the world around them how God wants us to live as hum
ans. When churches decline or disappear, the community as a whole suffers a big loss.
When they flourish in the way they should, marked by love received from God
and displayed to others, they are powerful signs of the work of God.
Question for thought: Does my church display the love of God?
Gracious Lord, we pray for the Christians in Marsibit, Kenya.
We pray for an end to the conflict between the Islamist terrorist groups and the Christian Church.
We pray for Elema Molu Dida who leads the Mothers Union and for the desperate
need for microfinance to help support vulnerable women.
