Above all, yet with us - that's my King!

Friday evening headed down to Regent Park for Neighbourhood Christmas carolling. A chilly night, but our motley crew of musicians, and singers, and children passing out candy-canes proceeded through the neighbourhood. We finished up outside "No frills" - quite apt for our group. My mind thought of how surreal the whole scene was - an unusual group of people doing an unusual activity in an unusual neighbourhood.

Last night was at Roy Thompson Hall for the Sally Anne Christmas program - quite the contrast, another crew of musicians, and singers, in an unusual neighbourhood, singing and listening to some of the same carols.

God with us - in our formals at Roy Thompson, in our jeans and hoodies in Regent. God with us irrepective of our bank balance, I.Q. past failures, future hopes.

God with us....Jesus holding it all together, the inspiration which brings people together.

He was with us at our Divisional Youth Leaders conference - thanks for those who prayed.

Doesn't get rawer than having a baby in a stable - God with us, anywhere, everywhere. Picking us up when we fall, knowing us by name, speaking hope. That's our king!
