Some Happy Christmas Eve messages for you today. Celebrate the Life of God in you!
Author: Without Limit
My name is Tim, and I am a life-long mountaineer living on the northern plains, enjoying my God and a wild life without limits with him. Coming into a conscious union with Him has revolutionized my living every day. I am finding what Jesus meant when He said that He came that "they might have life, and have it to the full."
The fullness Christ lives in His children is not as the world sees fullness. It is not of the things of this world or the things that feed our flesh. It is bigger and better than that. It is the fullness of our God Himself! I hope this website will help some of you to find this life without limit as well.

Praying to a God Who is There
