He exchanged a throne for a cross, his crown for our curse. As CS Lewis once said, “The Son of God became a man to enable men to become sons of God.” #Christmas

In sheer humility he stooped all the way down to us. Down from the glory of heaven, to the straw & dirt of a battle-scared earth. Exchanging immeasurable riches for lean poverty. Angelic praise & adoration for ridicule, pain & suffering.

Reflecting on the birth of Christ, floods our hearts with worship & gratitude. Humanity couldn’t ascend to God, so He descended to us. Pure grace & mercy. Unearned, unmerited, undeserved.

@jockowillink @elonmusk @Teslaconomics @lexfridman @elonmusk this should fix it…

@elonmusk @Teslaconomics Elon. Quite a few people have recommended me. Let me know if you need my help in this regard. @lexfridman has my number.

I REPEAT, Elon needs the absolute strongest, toughest security that a human on Earth can get. This is no joke. @elonmusk

@samueldeuth @samueldeuth I love this little saying 👉 “I will not live by how I feel, but by the Truth I know is real.”

Don’t be a slave to your feelings— set your heart free by submitting to God’s Word.

@QldPolice 😢🙏❤️ Such a terrible loss. Giving their lives in service to the community.

This evening two of our officers lost their lives in the line of duty while protecting their community. Our thoughts are with their families, friends and colleagues at this devastating time. With Honour They Served.

The most wonderful truth of #Christmas 👉 “But when the fullness of time had come, God sent forth his Son, born of woman, born under the law, to redeem those who were under the law, so that we might receive adoption as sons.” [Gal 4:4-5]

🎄⛄️🎁🎅🏽 The Childhood Cancer Association Christmas Fair hosted by Edge Church.

The reason why we sing Christmas songs is because with these “sweet hymns of joy”, we sing FAITH right into our hearts!

"Truly my soul finds REST in God ALONE" [Psalm 62:1]. Over the years, I've looked to some pretty ordinary sources of rest, that turned out to be no rest at all. Yet there’s nothing like the soul rest we find in God alone. The ancient practices of prayer, Scripture & meditation.

@MartinRose2 Amazing... Praying for you. Looking forward to catching up sometime soon in Bristol. 🙏❤️🔥

@matstevo Hi Mat. I am sat in my home office watching your message from Sunday. I want to thank you because I think this message was aimed directly at me. Perhaps, next time you come to Bristol, could we sit together with a coffee so we can talk? You are such a blessing.

God is the One who speaks into the chaos & darkness of our world, whispering it into NEW LIFE! “He calls into existence the things that do not exist.” [Rom.4:17]. May God’s Word bring a garden of Eden out of your life in 2021. Happy New YEAR!!

Christmas - God stoops down to speak baby talk.

“God, unseen until now, is revealed in the Voice, God’s only Son, straight from the Father’s heart” John 1:18. Christmas, the Voice of the silent God, breaking-in to a weary world. A baby screaming out in the middle of the night for a feed. God with us. Incognito.
