This is it! Welcome to the new blog. It seems that we are obsessed with the idea of newness. Think about it … the draw of a new store or a new neighborhood, how a new song on the radio by an artist is all the rage (and dropped completely from the rotation months later!), and of course, that new car smell!
How interesting to note that God gets that obsession. Actually, He doesn’t just get it. He created it and built it into every one of us. For it is a passion that originated with Him! As he showed a glimpse of the culmination of time, Jesus said to his dear friend John in Revelation 21:5 “Look! I am making everything new!”
Our Lord’s heart is excited and driven by newness. It is what He freely offers to you and me in the possibility of our becoming a “new creation” (2 Cor. 5:17) — to not just enjoy new things and experiences, but to be new and live out the newness!
I’m looking forward to adding new posts. For the time being, enjoy that new blog smell.
