When God says He’s going to do a new thing, that means it is not going to be like the old thing!
If we consider the Creation of the ‘seen’ it befuddles and shocks us! So very little is truly understood. Yes! We have attempted with evolution and Science, yet a snag is hit! ‘Life’ on other planets? Life in the Universe? Yes! We still search not to ever find. The amazing thing is to realize what could have been in existence! But rather than go down that path we will stick to the path we are on!
“The Lord directs the steps of the godly. He delights in every detail of their lives. Though they stumble, they will never fall, for The Lord holds them by the hand.” Psalm 37:23-24
It’s going to be different. The new thing may not be what you were expecting. It may not happen the way you thought it would. Stay open to how God is going to do it. Don’t put Him in a box and limit Him to one way. Most of the time, the way we want it done is less than what God has in mind. What He has planned will be much bigger, much better. Trust Him to do it His way. If we’re set in how we want it to happen, we can miss the new thing.
