"All Things New!"


"Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: 
The old has gone, the new is here!"
2 Corinthians 5:17

I could hardly resist sharing this picture.  I have the unique honor and privilege to minister to homeless men, women and children through our emergency shelter.  It has been a long, cold, and challenging winter to say the least.  

When I saw the trees in the courtyard where our residents relax, I couldn't help but smile.  What a perfect illustration of the new creations that are being created in so many lives.  So many of the resident's that come through our doors are experiencing long, cold, dark, and challenging times in their lives.  However, with God's help are beginning to see blooms and progress and are moving towards self sufficiency.

What a tremendous gift from God we have in that no matter who we are or what we have done - we too can be made new!

Blessings!
