A little while back, I received an advertising card from a business in another town. The heading captured my attention, “Something Brand New is Happening in . . . . . .” Immediately I thought of the Scriptures.
Isaiah 43:18-19
Remember ye not the former things, neither consider the things of old. Behold, I will do a new thing; now it shall spring forth; shall ye not know it? I will even make a way in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert. (KJV)
I am reminded of Glen, or more commonly known as “Rags” a young man who did his apprenticeship in the same factory as me, and we were in the same section for some time. He mixed with the Bikie guys and led a pretty rough life. He then became a follower of Christ, what a transformation. One of his amazing comments was that he could always tell who the believers were by looking into their eyes. Having spent so much time with people who were living a hollow existence, he could tell those who had hope in their lives because he could see hope in their eyes.
Lord, continue to do a new thing in peoples’ lives.
