working out new…

And He who sits on the throne said, “Behold, I am making all things new.” And He says, “Write, for these words are faithful and true.”

Revelation 21:5 NASB

He’s currently in the process of making all things new…

Not just a few… but all…

I got something new yesterday… and yes it’s a joy… and exciting… but it also causes some work…

Work to learn how to live with the new… even… to some degree… missing things about the old…

They were comfortable… familiar… and I knew how to work it…

So it makes me wonder at the spiritual work… struggles… which come with this process of being made new…

This being born again is a growth process… along the way some tumbles… like the toddler learning to walk…

New is good… but it can also be uncomfortable… awkward… even frustrating… until you learn to function in the new way…

It makes me understand it’s OK to struggle at times… walking with the Spirit… depending on Him instead of me… trusting the unseen… instead of the seen… familiar…

New… it’s good… but takes time to work out…

Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is anew creation. The old has passed away; behold the new has come.

2Corinthinans 5:17 ESV

Find joy… in the being made… new…

Amen…
