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.

Love is not something that needs to wear labels. When we are involved we are doing it in the spirit of Jesus. We are testifying to God’s love never ending. Love never fails. Love cannot be put to death. God’s love in Jesus remains
