MU Thought for the Week
​Sunday 2nd April 2023
Christ is Risen
Holy Week 
‘The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep’ (John 10:11)

How precious are the words from the 23rd Psalm, ‘The Lord is my shepherd’. The psalm contains wonderful promises of protection and help, ‘even in the valley of the shadow of death’. In John’s Gospel, Jesus tells us that he is the Good Shepherd and that he protects us from sin and evil even by laying own his life. No wonder that the cross is the universal symbol of the Christian faith. From the death of Jesus comes forgiveness of our sins, peace with God and hope for the future. Amazing grace.

Question for thought: Am I simply trusting Jesus to take away my sins?

Heavenly Father we pray for the good health of mothers and children in Cape Coast in Ghana who often suffer due to malnutrition, anemia and malaria. May a solution be found. We also pray for the parenting classes and workshops to help parents discipline their children wisely.
