Accustomed to love

Mark 10:1

Jesus left that place and went to the region of Judea and beyond the Jordan. And crowds again gathered around him; and, as was his custom, he again taught them.

As was his custom...
Teaching
Healing
Feeding
Listening
Answering questions
Asked or unasked
Responding to the needs of those around
even when they didn't even recognise
their yearning.
Teaching truths
about things unimagined.
And, in it all,
witnessing to love.

Prayer
God, when we are confronted with hard questions and inconvenient interruptions, may we become accustomed to responding in love, making time for all and meeting the needs of those around us, in your name.
