Ptrs Gani and Henry |
Today, is a new day. While each day in reality starts afresh, more than that, today is truly a new beginning. New beginnings owe their significance to the fact that they are very liberating. Our human desire to move forward and chase after the light of hope is always hampered by the mud of the past that bogs down our progress to the future. If you have slogged through muddy paths, you know how frustrating and tedious it is. It can wear you down. It can immobilize you as you sink deeper into the mud. Therefore, to be free today from the things that bind us to the past liberates us to witness the wonderful fulfillment of God's plans in the future.
Streams in the wasteland will constantly remind me from this day onwards on how God brings freshness to the Calling He has for each one of us. Streams in the wasteland will stir up the sense of anticipation on what He will do among the people who waste away in hopelessness.
Today, I would rather be swept away in that stream to the wasteland than be bogged down and sink in the muddy past.
Well said Pastor Henry. Follow his blog Streams in the Wasteland.
