Setting Intentions
‘So we make it our aim to please him,
whether we are at home in the body or away from it’
(2 Corinthians 5:9)
In this life we are at home in the body. But our real goal is to find our home with the Lord Jesus.
When we die, we will be awaiting the resurrection of the body. But one thing is the same,
whether in this life or in the life to come: we make it our aim to please the Lord Jesus.
That is the goal of our lives, now and always. We know what pleases him because he has taught us the truth.
Amen and we need to be his disciples, his students. This means that at the heart of our lives
there is something we cannot live without – an unbreakable relationship
with someone who can be trusted in all circumstances.
Question for thought: If someone asked me what is my aim in life, what would I say?
Gracious Lord, we bring before you the Dioceses of Mauritius and the Seychelles.
Pray for members that they have opportunity to share their hope of trusting in you
as they care for blind people, unwanted children, the elderly and for all in times of disaster. Amen.
