Jesus, the eternal Son of God, became a human being. That means we can truly understand what God is like, without having to use guesswork but just by looking into the face of Jesus.

John tells us why Jesus came. And the reason is truly life-changing: Jesus came into our world to share his life with us.

Jesus offers us more than we expect and so much more than we deserve.

As humans we tend to care 'inwardly', about people that are close to us. But God is an 'outward' God - a God who loves the world.

Matthew 28 / Acts 1

Luke 10:25-37

'Reaching out' is not common in our world but it is totally at the heart of who God is. We want to be like Jesus in His life-giving generosity. What will that be like?

There's lots of talk about the world coming together but it is seemingly unachievable. God will bring people from every nation truly together.

This Psalm is about unity. Unity is a blessing on us from above, that blesses others.

God transforms lives. These Psalms join together to give us a picture of what His transformation looks like - forgiveness from beginning to end.

It's common for us to live and work within two extremes: self-reliant perseverance, and lazy inertia. Both are fruit of a fallen world. Today's Psalm on the other hand shows us a true and reassuring solution.

This Psalm tells us about about the difference it makes to remember God's past grace when we are feeling discouraged or distant or cold spiritually.
