A collect based on Luke 6: 1-11 (Click here to read the passage)
Jesus, breaker of rules,
You come to us and ask “Why do you do what is lawful on the Sabbath?
Why do you rest when there is poverty and famine, war and greed, discrimination and inequality?”
Christ, we stretch out our hands towards you; restore us, forgive us, revive us.
So we too can place life above law and fill the powerful with fury.
Amen
I hope you have found this collect a useful way to explore this passage from Luke where Jesus is challenged about his behaviour on the Sabbath.
