Something worth sharing.

I remember once visiting a vineyard of a very well-known label. They had run out of a particular style of wine that I enjoyed. Instead of trying to sell me something else, the winemaker suggested I try a new variety. I took up the advice and have been a great fan of both labels ever since.

To be confident as a citizen of the Kingdom of God, under the possession of God’s favour and protection, is something not to be grasped tightly to oneself, but rather shared around. Why hold onto something when it is best shared? And a great place to start is with a good bottle of wine!
