Day 16: Being Considerate

Find in your Bible: New Testament book called Luke chapter 16:verse 19 - 31


God of all creation,
God of all times and seasons,
Creator of the rich and the poor,
We give you thanks and bless your holy name.


Lord we rub shoulders with the rich & poor in the community,
Make us sensitive to each others needs.
As the word of the Lord is preached in various ways,
With scriptural verse being posted through letter boxes,
Strangers preaching about salvation and Judgement Day,
Lord, give us the patience to listen to your words.


The teachings of Christ are in our midst,
Help us to read, understand and practise them,
Lord, give us the strength to action your words.

The poor and homeless ask for our pocket change,
We turn a blind eye and go deaf.
Lord, forgive us our trespasses.


Lord, as we live our lives on this earth,
Let us not forget the day of judgement.
Lord, let our lights shine brightly when we interact with our neighbours,


Lord teach us to value our time on earth,
For we have a finite time to do your will.
Lord, help us to use our worldly and spiritual wealth effectively
Thank you Lord. Amen
