Merry ChristMESS
Human life includes messiness and fractured relationships that leave longings unmet. God enters the mess, provides grace and substitution, and begins patient restoration for broken people. Authentic covenant with God requires vulnerability, sustained repentance, and costly devotion as love’s response. True leadership serves the weak, practices accountability, and builds communities where the vulnerable flourish. Grace reshapes identity and produces humble, grateful obedience that frees from performance.
