Thursday 7 February - Meditation


From today's gospel....
Then he said to them all, ‘If any want to become my followers, let them deny themselves and take up their
cross daily and follow me. For those who want to save
their life will lose it, and those who lose their life for
my sake will save it. What does it profit them if they
gain the whole world, but lose or forfeit themselves?

from Luke 9

To reflect on....
Do any of us, in our relatively secure and comfortable society, know what it is really like to deny ourselves? What do Jesus’ words mean for me – now, this day and this Lent?

Let's Pray....
Lord of Lent, Lord of my life, teach me to grow in understanding of your words that I might live more to your glory each day. Amen.
