01 March 2015

Sunday 1st March ~~ Romans 4.13-25 ~~ Father of Faith

Second Sunday of Lent

Genesis 17.1-7, 15, 16 ~  Genèse 17.1-7, 15, 16

Psalm 22.23-31 ~ Psaumes 22.23-31

Mark 8.31-38 ~ Marc 8.31-38


Today is St David's Day. 1st March was a big deal in my secondary school, there

were no lessons, we held an eisteddfod. But this is not the reason why I hold 

St David so dearly. My respect for St David grew living in St David's diocese 

and the annual 'pilgrimages' which our church made to the cathedral. St David 

was a Celtic saint who kept the faith in spite of opposition from Vikings and 

Anglo-Saxons. He was a kind and loving teacher. 



But there are also real live people who have and nourished my faith. My 

grandma sang Jesus loves me as she quietly did her chores, my Girl Guide 

Captain was an example of a life devoted to our people. Auntie Mary looked 

after my little children and did shopping when I was unable to do so and 

encouraged me to renew my Bible daily reading. Uncle Steve always had an 

agenda for a humanitarian cause fired by his faith. There are many others 

young and old, past and present who show me the way of Christ, and I want 

to do that too for you and the others I meet today.
