The New Testament paints a very different image of God to the way He was understood in the Old Testament.
Jesus’ actions and teaching show
what His father is like – if we know Jesus then we know about His
father – God.
God has prepared a place for all
and is open to a relationship for all ordinary people to be in His kingdom.
Being ready in many situations is very important. Each advent we hear the call to be ready.
Pause, reflect and identifying hazards in our spiritual life by taking moments of stillness.
Christmas is nigh so ‘make ready’ for what is to come!
In the text, Moses has moved out of the Empire and is in the wilderness with his people living in tents.
God provides to their worried minds about the need of sustenance, a rain of bread comes in the morning, so their bellies have food.
He assures them hoarding of food is not needed. Abundance in scripture is about how life is organised so that all have enough.
God comes close not in power but in human life. He took on flesh and blood in Jesus and is close by.
In our busy, noisy lives it is easy to miss seeing this astonishing truth, that we see what God is like by seeing who Jesus is.
God makes a home for everyone. Those who trust in Jesus are children of God by grace.
The challenge is to expect the breathe of God in unexpected places.
Navigating life is tough work at times. All the things that burden us down, should not hold us back if we realise God’s mighty power, grace and forgiveness can be ours.
Live life doing the things Jesus calls us to do, love and serve him and others to the Glory of God
Just what is Heaven and what does it mean to us? Why does God live up high?
