Galantforum_veteranOPWherever you are and however things are going for you in this peculiar year of 2020, may you find peace and joy in the season of waiting and rejoicing that has continued now since ancient times.
All wars, all famines, all plagues, all pandemics have had their end, and will have their end, but the light that dawned in the darkness continues and one day the light will come fully and the night will be over.
Many things fail us in this life. Jesus Christ never will.
A blessed advent to you all and a joyful Christmas to come!
"Although we are capable of great acts of kindness, history teaches us that we sometimes need saving from ourselves – from our recklessness or our greed. God sent into the world a unique person – neither a philosopher nor a general, important though they are, but a Saviour, with the power to forgive... It is my prayer that on this Christmas day we might all find room in our lives for the message of the angels and for the love of God through Christ our Lord." (Christmas message, 2011)
