Christmas – a story of love

on 25 December 202530 December 2025 Leave a Comment on Christmas – a story of love

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) …

Working and waiting

His will, His ways, His strength, His glory… I’m thankful that our God is always working because, some days, I just can’t. I hit a wall of fatigue this week and He was true to His word – I was “marvellously helped”. I’m so grateful that He enables me to work and rest according to …
