Communion Reflections
 

Lost and found

We can lose our way in life; like when there’s failure and we don’t believe in ourselves any more – in an exam, in a job, promotion, or feeling a failure as a parent, teacher, or in whatever is our calling in life.

Loss, bereavement, deep disappointment, and our faith may be weakened. We wonder is God really interested, does he look for us, search us out like the lost sheep.

Or lost in guilt, remorse, shame for what stings from the past?

We look for a light in the mist; like walking home on a foggy night, wondering will we ever find the way again?

Lost we are at times, but never without Jesus Christ, the one who has lost himself who suffered bereavement and all that we suffer.
On the path of our lives, from first to last moment, we look on Jesus with thanks.

Our guide on the journey our song in the discord, our light in the darkness.

Lost in confusion, sin, anxiety, found in the mercy of the love of God.
