Safe? No... Good? YES!

"Safe?... Who said anything about safe? 'Course he isn't safe. But, he's GOOD. He's the King, I tell you." The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, C.S. Lewis

The ultimate risk-taking God stepped out of His royal, heavenly safety into the royal mess of human existence. From the day He was born, they sought to kill Him (Matthew 2:7-18). On Good Friday the evil seemingly triumphed... at least for a short while. The White Witch and all her cronies had a field day.

But, the greater mystery, kept hidden in the heart of God before the foundation of the world was set in motion that day. And no evil to this day can conquer this unfolding mystery. One day the whole world will know, truly know that He is good. That Jesus is THE King, to the glory of God the Father.
