This Week's Readings 10th January

For you to read, to reflect on and to lead your prayer

​

God’s call is mysterious, it comes in the darkness of faith. It is so fine, so subtle that it is only with the deepest silence within us that we can hear it. And yet nothing is surer or stronger, nothing so decisive and overpowering as that call. This call is uninterrupted: God is always calling us.                                    (Carlo Carretto)

​

1 Samuel 3:3-10,19  The prophet Samuel played a very significant role in the story of God’s                involvement with the people of Israel. Here we have the account of his call by God and the way he had to learn to recognise God’s call.

​

1 Corinthians 6:13-15,17-20  Paul tells us that our bodies are the temples of the Holy Spirit. We must therefore treat them with reverence.

​

John 1:35-42   Here we have John’s account of the call of the first disciples and the way some brought others to Jesus.
