Anticipation

A blessed Christmas to you all and thanks for taking the time to read these thoughts over the past months and years.

All the excitement and anticipation is now at an end - CHRIST is present with us in the celebrations of his birth. May you sense God's abundant love today. May all the preparation and hype of the Advent season not disappoint us today - this is the moment we have all been waiting for. The Messiah has come.

"That’s why I don’t think there’s any comparison between the present hard times and the coming good times. The created world itself can hardly wait for what’s coming next. Everything in creation is being more or less held back. God reins it in until both creation and all the creatures are ready and can be released at the same moment into the glorious times ahead. Meanwhile, the joyful anticipation deepens." - Romans 8:18-21 (MSG)

May our 'joyful anticipation' grow a deeper hunger within us - that we may desire more and more of the Lord.

Living in Grace
