ADVENT WEEK 1: John 1:14
The Word Became Flesh… Before anything was, God was. God then decided to fashion companions for Himself. He didn’t want puppets or slaves, so He created His people with[…]

Read moreSearching For A Sumptuous Repast…
Spiritual food can be found in many forms. According to Anglicans, which I proudly admit that I am now one, the Eucharist is the optime of spiritual food, which is true. Not the transubstantiation kind of Eucharist, but the mystery of the presence of Christ kind of cuisine. (What’s that you say, Theology right off the bat?)

The Love of God is shown to the unlovely; the Peace of God is given to the restless; the Unmerited Favor of God is given to all!
About Weaving Grace
God’s Grace
Being Woven
God’s influence in the world and in the lives of men has been seen as a beautiful and luxurious Tapestry. Tapestry is an ancient art form, traditionally woven on a vertical loom. It is composed of two sets of interlaced threads, those running parallel to the length (called the warp) and those parallel to the width (called the weft); the warp threads are set up under tension on a loom, and the weft thread is passed back and forth across the warp threads. In this analogy, I, one warp thread, pray in hope that other warp threads may see God’s presence and grace, the weft thread, as He designs and creates a beautiful, yet incomplete Tapestry. This web site was designed to encourage, admonish, and urge all peoples(1 Thes 5: 14), towards radical faith, prayer, trust, and commitment to and in our radical leader, Jesus Christ, the author and finisher of our faith (Heb 12: 2), the Lord of all (Romans 10: 12), Jesus Christ, who is our Savior and Messiah (John 4: 25). May the Lord bless you and keep you. May the Lord make his face to shine on you and be gracious to you. May the Lord give you his favor , grace and peace” (Numbers 6: 24-25) S.D. Evans
Have You Considered God?
Calling to you in a deep longing for something, something you can’t get to, can’t touch or reach…
Have you ever considered God? I mean really contemplated God from His perspective? Have you heard Him calling out to you? Calling to you… Calling out in the cold, darkness of night… Calling to you during the frustrations of the day… Calling to you in a deep longing for something, something you can’t get to, can’t touch or reach… Calling for something, more…. Perhaps you may not know anything about God or Christ and this whole idea of God calling out to you sounds rather surreal and quite ridiculous in the light of day, but yet in the blackness of your worse waking nightmares, you long for something. These musings, ideas, exhortations are intended to magnify the character of the Living God who loves and desires relationship with you. Jesus Christ the Messiah, Ha Mashiach Yeshua, Isa al Massih, is calling you, whether you have made a commitment to Him or not. This divine action is what Christ Followers and the bible call the gospel, translated literally means, good news and it is!
Of Christ It Has Been Written…
He was in the beginning with God. All things were made through him, and without him was not any thing made that was made. In him was life, and the life was the light of men. The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.”
Son of God
John 1:1-14
The true light, which enlightens everyone, was coming into the world. He was in the world, and the world was made through him, yet the world did not know him. He came to his own, and his own people did not receive him. But to all who did receive him, who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God, who were born, not of blood nor of the will of the flesh nor of the will of man, but of God. And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we have seen his glory, glory as of the only Son from the Father, full of grace and truth”.
Light of the World
John 1: 9-14
“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believes on him should not perish, but have eternal life. For God sent not the Son into the world to judge the world; but that the world should be saved through him”.
Yeshua Hamashiach
John 3: 16-17
“No man can come to me, except the Father that sent me draw him: and I will raise him up in the last day. It is written in the prophets, And they shall all be taught of God. Every one that hath heard from the Father, and hath learned, cometh unto me”.
Isa al Masih
John 6: 44-46
