Former Things & New Things

Isaiah 43:18-19 says: "Do not remember the former things, or consider the things of old. I am about to do a new thing;"

That has been my focus verse here of late. I don't understand exactly what I'm going through or why but I do trust my Savior! I can no longer look back or focus on what was. Today is different and yes God is doing a new thing. There is no reason for me to worry about anything.

I feel like a caterpillar going through the transformation process to become a beautiful butterfly. I would imagine that process is somewhat painful and doesn't happen overnight but the creature that went into the cocoon is no longer the same. It no longer has to crawl it can fly!

So Lord, I thank you for this new thing you are doing in me and I trust how beautiful I'll be when you're finished.

  1. And what a beautiful caterpillar you are . . . I can't wait to see what you will look like as a butterfly, but I know it will be even more secure and beautifl!
