Prevention of Domestic & Family Violence

In Australia one in six females aged 15 or over has experienced violence from a partner or former partner. For males, it's one in 20. On average, one woman a week is killed by a partner or former partner. Domestic and family violence is happening within our church. Maybe it's right here among us, in this congregation.

Remember Me

39th Day in Lent (Good Friday)

Read Luke 23:26-43 “Then [the robber] said, ‘Jesus, remember me when you come into your kingdom.’ Jesus answered him, ‘I tell you the truth, today you will be with me in paradise.’” Luke 23:33 (NIV) God’s gift of grace is the promise of eternal life. It is not an easy thing to have a loved one die. It is so hard to say ‘Goodbye’. Today I have had a very close and loved friend pass away from this life to her eternal home. Even with the pain of her disease she always welcomed me with a smile and love in her hug. She knew about her loving Lord and Saviour. She knew that one day she would be with Him in His Kingdom and what assurance it now is for those who knew and loved her. Her life does not end today, it never ends… she is with Her Heavenly Father with no pain, no sorrow. Today is also the day Jesus died. His was a horrible death on a rugged cross with only pain searing through His body with every breath He took. Jesus’ death had been planned from when time began. This was God’s solution to a world filled with pain, sorrow, hurts, and sinfulness. The only way He could save the world was through the death of His sinless Son who paid our price on the cross and gave us the promise of eternal life with our Heavenly Father. Two criminals hung there with Jesus. One ridiculed Jesus and made fun of Him not knowing that through Jesus was life eternal. The other confessed his sins and wrongdoings and asked Jesus to take him to heaven. When we are faced with a loved one’s passing, or even our own, Jesus has promised: “I tell you the truth, today you will be with me in paradise.” What an incredible gift, a promise of grace and a life with our beloved Father in Heaven. This grace is a gift. I am feeling incredible sorrow and sadness for myself and my friend’s family as we know we are without them now on Earth. But, with the promise of Jesus – there can be no sadness only joy and thankfulness of a promise and life assured. Jesus will never forget His promise! Prayer: Thank you for your grace in dying an innocent death so that my eternal life in Heaven is secured. I welcome seeing you and experiencing this joy one day with you. Amen
