Thy Kingdom Come
‘Jesus said, “the kingdom of God is in your midst”’
(Luke 17:21)
God’s kingdom comes when he will judge the world and relieve his people
of evil and suffering. Jesus preached that the kingdom of God was at hand and that we should get ready
for it by repentance and faith. But when the Pharisees asked him when this would happen,
he said that the kingdom was already present. He meant that he is the King and that he was already present.
But he also said that he would come again to judge the world.
So, when we pray that the kingdom will come, we are praying that Jesus will return
and set all things to rights. This is something that we should long for.
Question for thought: Do I pray that Jesus will return?
Gracious Lord, we pray for members in the Diocese of Gippsland and for President Lindy Driver.
Uphold them as they seek to share Christ’s teaching on marriage and family through caring for refugees,
providing a holiday for two families and distributing activity bags for the children’s ward.
We also bring before you the Diocese of Cashel and Ossory in All Ireland
as they share your love with the homeless and provide holidays for those in need. Amen
