A happy and blessed 2012

Published: 01 January 2012

Your Gift? Discover and Celebrate! is the Mothers' Union theme for 2012  - each of us is created by God to love and serve him and the world in which we live.

Lord,
it is easy to overvalue our gifts
and equally easy to undervalue them;
to have too high or too low an opinion of ourselves.
Help us to recognise that you value us equally,
each having something to contribute to others
and something to receive from them.
Teach us, then, to appreciate our own worth
and to recognise that of those around us,
and so may we learn to use the various gifts you have given
wisely and with humility
in the service of your kingdom;
through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Amen
