Give thanks for the hundreds of churches and thousands of folk who have taken part in the forty days of prayer during Lent, and for the positive testimonies starting to come in from folk responding to the Trypraying adverts on buses all over Scotland and the Trypraying booklet. John Wesley said, ‘God does nothing redemptively except through prayer.’ One of Jesus’ last recorded acts was to pray for all those who would believe in Him, and that all those believers would be united in relationship ‘as one’; not as identical clones, but as one loving family with all the diverse variety and richness of character, personality, gifting and purpose you see in any family - all given by our Father, the ultimate Creator, to fulfil His plans on earth. God’s plan is nothing less than the complete transformation of society: turning from darkness to light, from sinful independence from God to complete dependence on Him, bringing in the rule and reign of His Kingdom.
