“Forget the former things; do not dwell on the past. See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it? I am making a way in the wilderness and streams in the wasteland” (Isaiah 43:18-19).
Spring always brings this bible verse to my mind. It is time when the earth, which has been cold and dead all winter, brings forth new life. Beautiful plants and flowers shoot up from the ground. Baby animals are born. It is a time of joy, sunshine, and new beginnings. It always reminds me of the beautiful transformation we have in Christ Jesus. Though we have sinned and made a lot of mistakes in our lives, Jesus has washed all of them away and tells us that we are made completely new in Him! If you feel like you have been in a spiritual slump, go to to the Lord. Let Him renew and refresh your spirit. Let Him plant new and beautiful things in your life and watch as they grow in you. Spend time in His presence this week and let His light shine in your life.
Journey on!
