Morning both,
I picked up my notes again this morning and read about Jesus eating with the tax collectors and sinners. There is an obvious link to Bob's talk yesterday about the grace of God in taking all the risk in the covenant with Abram. Reflecting on this as I walked in to work, perhaps I too easily fall back into the mindset of what I need to do (which then makes me feel guilty/unworthy and therfore I disengage) rather than accepting God's grace and spending time relaxing in his presence.

Yes ... salvation is always my story and not God's. Hard to escape this, but in my head I know it's not true.

I have gone a bit "off-piste" this morning (Thursday) while thinking about what I should do for home group tonight. As we start a New Year we have all sorts of hopes and aspirations for the year ahead (perhaps thinking it will be better than last year or we will finish something we started last year). But I am reminded (Revelation 21) that one day He will make ALL THINGS new. So I need to be realistic about what I can expect for the year ahead while having a firm hope in what is to come (unless He returns this year - now there's a hope and a challenge!)
