Thought for December 2025 - January 2026
The Greatest Story
Could this be truly the greatest story ever told?
Bear Grylls says so and millions in the last two thousand years would agree.
The great Creator of our seemingly boundless universe stooped to become a helpless child of peasant parents. Kings and princes were ignored as angels scared smelly shepherds on a cold hillside with amazing news that the Saviour of the world was here.
Jesus taught twelve unknown people and crowds of ordinary folk whom He loved and cared for.
Finally, he died in our stead that we - if we turn to Him - might share His glory despite our failures and sin.
As we in January begin a new year let us put our hand into those of the Man of Galilee. He alone knows the future and cares deeply about each one of us.
