Collect

Give us, we pray you, gentle God, 
a mind forgetful of past injury, 
a will to seek the good of others 
and a heart of love. 
Hear this prayer for your love’s sake. 
Amen. 

​E te Atua māhaki, hōmai he whakaaro 
kia warewaretia ngā pānga hē me ngā kino, he hiahia ki te rapu i ngā painga o ētahi atu, he ngākau e kī ana i te aroha. Whakarongo ki tēnei īnoi i runga i tōu aroha. Āmine. 

Love your enemies (Matthew 5:38-48)

An eye for an eye! Love your neighbour as yourself! The gospel reading today is another part of the Sermon on the Mount, and gives us a great opportunity to talk about abundant generosity, both in what we have and how we love well.
