'And the word became flesh and dwelt among us' - 1 John 14

We dwell among one another all year long but so often without a chance to even say 'hello' and find out how each other are really doing. Well Christmas (and this year more than ever perhaps) is the perfect time to head out of our doors and knock on someone else's with some Christmas goodies in hand to bless them with. Whether cupboards needed a little stocking up or whether hearts just needed to know that someone in the neighbourhood was thinking of them, getting out in the frosty December weather was well worth it.

At this time of year we remember how Jesus left heaven and crossed into our broken world. He felt our pains, griefs, losses and joys. He came close, and made a way for us to come close to him.

We are forever grateful.

We are truly blessed to be a blessing!
