A work of love

on 15 February 202619 February 2026 Leave a Comment on A work of love

Cast in His image, the work is not done until I look like Him. Until I am love-shaped. A work of love by Love, bearing the Potter’s mark. “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind. This is the great and first …

The story of the birth of Jesus Christ is one of love; great and mighty love. For our Father is the Almighty and Everlasting One. His love cannot be meagre – it is without measure! His beloved children are not just welcomed back Home but pursued, rescued, and redeemed. He came for me (and you) …

Heaven came down

My day started off as one of those days. You know them – when the day just isn’t going how you’d prefer and you want to grumble. I would’ve preferred a solid night’s sleep, thank you very much! I would’ve preferred to not have bleary eyes when I have to do computer work. I would’ve …
