Thank you for helping us offer an alternative

To be honest i'm not often sure what we're up here on the Hill is making a big difference or not! ( cup half empty kind of week from me!) But you have those moments of realisation that actually some of what we are doing is massive, not because it's clever or 'new', but because it's offering an alternative.
A couple of moments from last week  highlighted this for me.  The main one must be the Ladies pamper night Alison hosts in our home, it's a alternative place for people to come into a place of peace/welcome/ acceptance. This alternative is a gift which Alison offers the Ladies and i believe does not go unnoticed. Jesus was often, if not always offering alternatives to all people, sometimes that alternative coursed great discomfort because it challenged sin and injustice. Other times it must have bought great comfort and hope- the God was with us and near.

I hope your week is a week of offering Kingdom building alternative to those around you.
