{mosimage}Lately, all across Canada, there has been a lot of debate about the same-sex marriage issue. Recently many of us attended rallies across the country to show our opposition to the proposed changes in legislation coming from the courts and our places of government. The arguments on both sides have at times been heated. As I've listened and watched I have cringed at some of the invective that has been increasing and I pray that we Christians will remember that Jesus, above all, was a minister of grace.

2Kings 5:1-14
Saddam Hussein's photo is once again in the news. This time we see pictures of a cleaned up Saddam making his appearance in a court of law. I read that when the pictures of Saddam in court were shown on Iraq T.V., everyone stopped what they were doing and watched in fascination. Oh how the mighty are fallen!
We love to see oversized egos get their comeuppance, and we love the stories of the humble person who succeeds against all odds.

What words can I use
To show my gratitude
For all You have done for me?
And what can I say,
That will show, in some way,
How You, Lord, have set me free?
There are no words
To speak Your Grace,
Your wonderful love,
Your matchless Name,
Your Holiness,
With mercy assured..
I will praise You,
With more than words.
