Pray through a parable
What is your favourite parable?
Jesus used parables to convey what He wanted to say to the people and these
messages were not meant only for the Israelites but still hold great meaning
for us today. Choose one of your favourite parables of Jesus, read through it
slowly and then ask God what implications that parable has on your life. Which
character do you identify with? For example, when have you been rocky soil
instead of good soil? How have you hidden the gifts that God has given to you
instead of using them and harvesting the positive outcomes?
Sample:
Caring God, please help me to be a Good Samaritan rather than a Levite. I want
to stop and help those in need and give of myself for my neighbours, even the
ones that I might not get along with. Please help me to not cast a blind eye on
those who you have put in my path to help.
