something new


Follow along.  Find the connection in these verses.  It might shed some light where there has been shade as of late.


Isaiah 43:19  NLT

For I am about to do something new. See, I have already begun! Do you not see it? I will make a pathway through the wilderness. I will create rivers in the dry wasteland.


Joel 2:28  NLT

“Then, after doing all those things, I will pour out my Spirit upon all people. Your sons and daughters will prophesy. Your old men will dream dreams, and your young men will see visions.


2 Corinthians 5:17  NLT

This means that anyone who belongs to Christ has become a new person. The old life is gone; a new life has begun!


Colossians 2:12  NLT

For you were buried with Christ when you were baptized. And with him you were raised to new life because you trusted the mighty power of God, who raised Christ from the dead.


There are lots of connectors in those verses.  Some of them will stick out more than others.  Some you might have to dig for or use variant wording.


But what I do know is that our God does incredible things.  I draw your attention to just one of the connectors.  It might be the strongest for me throughout these verses, and many others.  But I hang on to this for our church, our family ad for myself.


God is doing something new.


That is the connector I see first among others.  These things He does are only possible through our miraculous and marvelous God.


He promises to do something new that includes making a way where there was none.


He promises to do something new that leads people to dream dreams.


He promises to do something new that changes our lives.


He promises to do something new and makes us new and alive.


Check it out once again and watch how God speaks in to your life.  Take this and all that you find in to consideration as you ask God for direction and as you follow His lead.  He will change your life.  He has mine, and there is more to come.

Have you heard of EDITH BURNS?

Edith Burns was a wonderful Christian who lived in San Antonio, Texas . She was the patient of a doctor by the name of Will Phillips. Dr. Phillips was a gentle doctor who saw patients as people. His favorite patient was Edith Burns.  One morning he went to his office with a heavy heart and it was because of Edith Burns.  When he walked into that waiting room, there sat Edith with her big black Bible in her lap earnestly talking to a young mother sitting beside her.  Edith Burns had a habit of introducing herself in this way: "Hello, my name is Edith Burns.  Do you believe in Easter?" Then she would explain the meaning of Easter, and many times people would be saved.  Dr. Phillips walked into that office and there he saw the head nurse, Beverly. Beverly had first met Edith when she was taking her blood pressure. Edith began by saying,"My name is Edith Burns. Do you believe in Easter?"  Beverly said, "Why yes I do."  Edith said, "Well, what do you

why is it Good Friday?

  Holy Week is the time we focus on God and His gift of salvation.  We come to Friday.  The day we remember the cross, Jesus’ death and all God has done for you and me   Why do they call this day “Good Friday” because it doesn’t seems good?   Jesus was treated as a criminal.  He was beaten so much that He could not recognize Him.  His pain would have been too much for you or me to endure.  That is especially from Scripture I’ve read or as in the movie the  Passion of the Christ .   Yet it is a good day.  It is Good Friday because God had our good in His heart.  What Jesus did that day changed our forever direction. Here are some thoughts that come to me:   He is Redemption and Redeemer   He too our Pain and Punishment   He is our Righteousness and Reality   He is the Savior and Life   All of those happened from the cross.  It was meant for the worst lawbreakers.  It was not meant for a Savior who never broke a law.  It was lifted high so that onlookers could see the price Jesus.   Look
