Sam 61:1-2

It’s tempting to feel like we need to perform before God can work in our lives. When we struggle, it can seem as if we’re failing. But God has already rescued us! No matter what we encounter or battle, He is with us and will fulfill His plans for us. Begin this three-day plan via Rush from Gather Ministries and surrender all of your doubts, hurt, and perfectionism to Him.

We long for refuge from the stress, uncertainty and conflict that life throws our way. God offers us refuge. Moments for Mums: Encouragement for mums in the midst of the beautiful mess of parenting and life. Presented by MOPS (Mothers of Preschoolers) Australia.

The daily prayers within this reading plan from St. Ignatius and the Jesuits of Great Britain are short reflections back over the day, recalling events and taking note of your feelings. The purpose of this reading plan is to help you become more aware of the ways in which God has been present to you, the times when the Holy Spirit was drawing you towards life.
