29th September 2016 Luke 17:5-10 Faith is a gift which we are invited to take. There is no compulsion, but in receiving the gift we take on responsibilities. With the privileges that go with being disciples of Jesus comes a duty to serve God and others. It is a fact, though a sad one, that in the ordinary course of parish life people can be very hard working but their work is not always acknowledged. It is easy to become despondent and feel undervalued. This is even more the case with children who like to know that their efforts are appreciated. At some stage, though, they, as we do, have to be willing simply to do what has to be done, just because it has to be done.
