A Wonderful Teaching But Remember The Punchline
Jesus, unlike the Pharisees, was not one for giving commandments. Yet of course on occasions he did. Perhaps one of those I find myself quoting most is, “Do not judge and you will not be judged…" etc.

What is the Perfect Prayer?
The answer is simple; it’s Jesus’ own prayer. “Father, Your Will Be Done.”
In the gospel he utters it often and of course it’s in the Lord’s prayer.

A WEAKNESS WITH TECHNOLOGY
Mobiles, facebook, internet, twitter etc, there are so many ways that people are able to communicate today. It truly is a modern, social revolution as people are able to meet and know each other, in all sorts of ways. We are told this really is “the future”. Relationships will “never be the same again.” It may well be. BUT, I do have one nagging doubt.

Prayer
A four year old boy was asked to say grace before Sunday lunch. He was really pleased to be asked as this was a job for the grownups.

BEWARE OF BUILDING INVISIBLE WALLS
I remember once listening to a person who was clearly not a happy bunny. As he spoke, he produced a whole litany of all that was wrong in his life and the world. As I listened I was reminded of the story of a man who after serving a number of years in prison was moved to a new one.
