Advent word - Proclaim

I'm sometimes eyed with suspicion for my sunny outlook on life. Even when things are tough I try to remain positive and see good where others maybe don't, and find the joy in the everyday. It may sound twee but I believe goodness is everywhere - hope is everywhere, even if it's not always obvious.
The God Jesus shows us is a God of joy, hope, love and equality; we should reflect that in how we live and how we treat people.

The gospel Jesus proclaims is that in God’s economy everyone will be fed, but we have to be willing to share from the riches that God has given us. In order to do that we have to stop and recognize the goodness that God has given us in our lives.
