Prayer and reflection for February

 

In February we reflect on the selfless love of Christ, with a prayer and reflection from the Mothers' Union prayer diary.

Loving Lord,

We thank you for the endless and selfless love that You have given us. We know that every one of Your children is known to You and loved by You, no matter what. We give thanks for the example of love that we see in You. Let those who do not know Your love, or those who have not experienced love as a person should, feel Your presence, hear Your word and know Your presence, now and always.

Amen.

 

Reflection: 'God proves His love to us in that whilst we were sinners Christ died for us' Romans 5:8.

God came to us as man, in Jesus, and gave Himself for each and every one of us. Jesus never asked for anything from us, except for us to love one another. Do we do that? We are all sisters and brothers in Christ, but do we follow His example and love each other unconditionally? How can we show Christ's love this month? Maybe through the giving of time to MU programme work, or sharing a card and prayer with an indoor member?
