World Day of Prayer for the care of Creation
The love of the Gospel is for everyone; Christ’s call is that his followers be open hearted to as many as possible, especially the poor.
We are invited to be ready for God always in our lives: his love and his call are present at every moment.
Prayer is being confident in the care and power of God to give us constantly in our lives what he knows is good and valuable for us. We must feel free to ask God for all our needs.
To pray, to listen to Christ, to have time for friendship and for love, to care for justice – all these are ‘the better part’ which our busy world sometimes puts into very secondary places. Not so the gospel.
Following Christ is a whole hearted service, a call to leave many of the things we hold dear. He is the centre; all else is secondary.
