“I’m not sure how old I was when I first encountered the word ‘schadenfreude’, certainly old enough to realise words were a delight.The English language doesn’t really have a ready equivalent (epicaricacy doesn’t roll off the tongue so easily)”  Wendy White tries to move beyond the malicious glee in Psalm 129 in today’s Daily Devotion.   ow.ly/MNBG50Z7BBu   Image: Ümit Yıldırım/Unsplash

“Matthew portrays Pilate as an insightful ruler – he can tell that he is being played by the crowd. But the hubris of power means that he decides that if he takes the easy path of washing his hands of the matter, he can get away with it.” Gethin Rhys wonders how the Church too can wash its hands to evade responsibility in today’s Daily Devotion.   ow.ly/6LtP50Z7BrR   Image: Nathan Dumlao/Unsplash

In the Bible, we read that Jesus has ‘… committed to us the message of reconciliation.’ In other words, we are welcomed into God’s family and into loving relationships with one another. With our welcome of the stranger comes a need to bring divided communities together.

Join with us in prayer. 🙏 Today's prayer is available in plain text and audio formats at cofe.io/TodaysPrayer.
Lord, you have taught us that all our doings without love are nothing worth: send your Holy Spirit and pour into our hearts that most excellent gift of love, the true bond of peace and of all virtues, without which whoever lives is counted dead before you. Grant this for your only Son Jesus Christ’s sake, who is alive and reigns with you, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever. Amen.

#MorningPrayer Lord Jesus, you call us to immerse ourselves in your way of grace, mercy, justice and peace. You send us out into the world to reveal your kingdom, drawing people into the hope you set before us. May all that we do and all that we are, speak to others of your love.

A prayer for the World Cup 2026. ⚽
A prayer for the World Cup God of glory, as the world gathers to celebrate the beautiful game, we pray for a harmonious and joyous World Cup. Bring safety and security for players and officials on the pitch, fans in the stands, and spectators at home. May we see and celebrate the hand of God in the creativity of every curving free kick, silky pass or impossible save. May we have compassion and perspective on the miskicks, missed penalties, and muddled VARs. Every winning team needs a losing team – even if you were the better team. Let the journey to World Cup glory be not only for the nation that wins. May we see something more of the world you want us to be: a gathering of every nation and people who share your glory. Amen.

“The belief that secular power should give one sexual privilege recurs in every generation, including our own, and has floored many leaders – although today as in David’s time, they tend to be found out in due course.” Gethin Rhys considers how ancient stories resonate today in our Daily Devotion.   ow.ly/46kb50Z7BjL   Image: Veronica Lorine/Unsplash

‘You are salt and light and we are grateful.’ The Most Revd and Rt Hon Dame Sarah Mullally, Archbishop of Canterbury and Patron of Mothers’ Union, expressed gratitude at a celebratory service for the legacy of 150 years of Mothers’ Union. ‘You have made such a difference, not just to the church, to your communities and to the world.’ The service was held on June 10 at St Paul’s Cathedral in London. 1500 members and partners gathered to reflect on the legacy of the Mothers' Union and look ahead to the next season of its work. With over 4 million members in approximately 84 countries, Mothers' Union is a women-led, international Christian movement dedicated to ending poverty, violence and social injustice. Members are well-known for speaking out against conflict and establishing local grassroots initiatives to combat the cycle of poverty and injustice of all kinds.
