Are you feeling tired and worn out over this holiday season?
One of our Sam's reflect:
"We might be in a pandemic, lockdown or an ongoing crisis in our lives. Doing everyday things might be more difficult: reading, writing, caring. And friends, we’re limited. We might spring back, we might not. Some days we’ll take one step forward; other days we’ll take five steps forward; and, on days we least expect, we might take four steps back. I know we’re doing our best, trying hard and pushing further. But does that honour the pain we’re in, acknowledge the limited existence we have. Are we trying to strong-arm peace rather than channelling peace?"

Apply the gospel of grace into your lives. Ease into the posture of surrender. Stay on your knees. And instead of trying harder, try softer.
