    My father visited my wife and me in London 30 years ago. He decided to take us to see Fidelio at Covent Garden. He bought the best seats available, which were the closest seats to the conductor, Colin Davis. It was unforgettable to sit so close and hear him singing and humming along, as he's doing in this video.

He is our all in all!!! I can't live without Him, I tried at times when I was stupid and young. But I was risking my soul and wasn't happy. I was just running around and running away from God. I was caught by a merciful God who I finally stopped and surrendered to. I thank God today for His grace, mercy and love. Here at Christmas, let Him reach out to you. He will save you, love you and welcome you with open arms!

Run to Him:) Run to the one who loves you without cease!! Jesus never created religion, man did. He is by no means religion, He is the ^^^^^ *precisely what the song reveals Him to be and infinitely more* He became a man in order to give His life to get rid of the sin that separated you from a relationship with the Father, so that you could know Him more and become like Him in this life and be a shining light that glorifies Him in everything you do, everywhere you go, and everyone that sees your life set apart unto Him and utterly changed in to His nature! His nature that He has called you to and *created* you for can only be found in a love relationship with the One who IS love. He has called you to everything that He is: love, joy, kindness, peace, self-control, faithfulness, gentleness, long-suffering, goodness, meekness, and humility. He longs for you…He longs for His daughter❤️

      Amen ! Eternally with the Father and Spirit, begotten fully man, to live a 100% righteous life to be accredited to US, died under condemnation and alienation from the Father as if He were us, FOR US, then rose as a first-fruits of the resurrection ( unlike others such as Lazzerous, who still had only their usual earthly bodies and still had to die again), a sign of God's promise of such being sure and true, and ascending to the right hand of the Father, to forever be our High Priest ( and ONLY needed priest) to intercede for all who've accepted this trade ! Trade of HIS life and HIS payment in death, for ours ! Still in these bodies, still on this earth, we still sin, but when we accept this trade, surrender ourselves to our Creator, redeemer, King, we are free from being a slave to sin, and definitely free from it's penalty ! Are no longer wandering alone in the universe, but are Sons and Daughters of the Most High, Great " I AM " ! Even tho these bodies still die, WE live, HAVE eternal life in and with Him, starting NOW !
      " Oh, death - where is your sting ? Oh, hell, where is your victory ? " !!!!
      Hallelujah ! See y'all on the other side, amen ? Even so, come soon, LORD ( YHWH) Jesus !

    The entire oratorio written in 23 days. Most couldn’t write this tiny piece of it in 23 days. the “sheet music” for Messiah for voice alone is 252 pages. Now add to that parts for the oboe, timpani, trumpet, and of course those all-important strings....all written in 23 days. then to make it not-so-arguably the greatest piece of music ever written, well that’s supernatural.
