Monday, 21/12: Psalms 121,122, 123; Matthew 19.1-12 Questions for reflection based on Matthew:
·
What reason does Jesus give for Moses teaching?
·
Ask the Holy Spirit to show you where you still carry
a hardness of heart in your relationships. How could Jesus’s way of Grace
change that situation?
What
verse speaks to you today? Repeat it slowly and allow the Holy Spirit to speak
through it.
Hardness of heart " = Stubboness. It's hard to be the first to say sorry, when things have gone wrong in a relationship. Perhaps we should do this more often, even (especially? ) when we don't think it's 'our fault'. "Therefore each of you must put off falsehood and speak truthfully to your neighbour, for we are all members of one body. ‘In your anger do not sin’ : do not let the sun go down while you are still angry, and do not give the devil a foothold.
