Readings: Isaiah 62v1-5; Psalm 36v5-10; 1 Corinthians 12v1-11; John 2v1-11.

A word from Lucy: The Isaiah reading tells us that God is ever working to help His people because of God's love for His creation; and the psalm is a prayerful echo of this. The letter, to the people in Corinth, is a call to live spirit filled lives in which we recognise that we all have different gifts that should be used for the common good. Today, we need to be mindful that the gifts that God gives us are all equally important to the community as a whole and are given to us so we can play the part God has designed for each one of us for the benefit of others. So, today we need to think about our gifts and find where God wants us to contribute them for the good of others. Today as I thought about the gospel and Jesus' attendance at a wedding, I noticed that I had never thought of the steward before. For here was a man serving his community at a wedding. A man who was willing to follow Jesus instructions and in so doing not only provided quality wine to the gathered community celebrating the sacrament of marriage but also witnessed a miracle. Today, its your turn to discern how  God is calling you to serve the common good.

Let us pray: Dear Lord, help us to serve you by serving others using the gifts you have given to us. This we ask in Jesus name, Amen.
