It’s easy to give up, especially on faith. But then, like Cleopas and his friend, we risk missing out on the life found only in Jesus.

John Stott wrote: ‘Truth becomes hard if it is not softened by love; love becomes soft if it is not strengthened by truth.’

No one has started higher or gone further to give a greater gift - than Jesus.

This is the kingdom search and rescue operation: searching out those in whom God is working, and rescuing them by pointing them to Jesus.

We need Jesus – we need that daily rhythm of coming to him and going with him. It’s like breathing.

No matter who or what we might face, in Jesus we can overcome because he has already won the victory.

Persecutions and trials are the soil God uses to grow his people in perseverance and faith.

The mess of this world, the mess in our lives – it is not the end.  There is hope, there is hope in Jesus who brings peace, who brings wholeness and completeness even to the messiest mess.

While we wait for that day when God’s kingdom comes in full, let us be ready, and live as who we are: children of the light and children of the day.

The gospel is for talking and for walking. It brings God great pleasure when he sees us using and growing in the life that he’s given us.
