Sunday Thought

I have behind me not only the splendid traditions and the annals of more than a thousand years but the living strength and majesty of the Commonwealth and Empire; of societies old and new; of lands and races different in history and origins but all, by God's Will, united in spirit and in aim.

Queen Elizabeth II

Sunday reflection:

Collect for the third Sunday of Lent

Eternal God,

give us insight

to discern your will for us,

to give up what harms us,

and to seek the perfection we are promised in Jesus Christ our Lord.
