THE LORD BRINGS NEW LIFE!

THE LORD BRINGS NEW LIFE!


There are all sorts of EXAMPLES
In the bible=where the Lord=
BRINGS NEW LIFE


Not to mention Jesus' own RESURRECTION=
And the Lord brought NEW life
To me=when I was next to dead=
Some 41 years ago


One such EXAMPLE is read
In Isaiah where what was THOUGHT
To be a dead stump=we FIND
Life is STIRRING


We find that the seemingly
LIFELESS root of JESSE is sporting
A BLOSSOMING BUD


Thanks to the Lord's life-giving SPIRIT-
A branch will SPRING OUT of
What appears to be a
Dried-up waste


“A shoot shall SPROUT
From the stump of Jesse


And from his roots
A bud shall BLOSSOM” Isaiah 11:1


The LORD BRINGS NEW LIFE!


Someone is COMING in a few weeks
That knows JUSTICE by heart
That brings NEWNESS to our lives


YES one will be BORN
In a few weeks
That will be ROBED
In integrity and FAITHFULNESS


And he will bring NEW HOPE=
NEW LIFE=a new spirit
To us all


“He put a NEW SONG
In my mouth
A hymn of praise
To our God


MANY will see and fear
The Lord
And put their TRUST in him” Psalm 40:3


“A NEW command
I give to you:
LOVE one another


As I have loved you-
So you MUST LOVE
One another” John 13:34


And how he LOVED US=he did
ALL the way through his life=
UNTIL his last breadth


He will come and RESTORE
The world to PEACE
WHEN he comes again


FEAR of what is different
Will fade away
Even=enemies=will SHARE
The same table


It sounds like a “FAIRY TALE”
But I BELIEVE it can
And WILL HAPPEN


PREPARE yourself for the new=
He is COMING=our LORD=
This CHRISTMAS


Let us PREPARE for the NEW!


“You PREPARE a table
Before me
In the presence
Of my enemies


You anoint my head
With oil
MY CUP OVERFLOWS” Psalm 23:5


Is there something dead or
DRIED UP in your life?


Think again=PREPARE for the LORD
This Christmas


SOMETHING NEW is COMING=REJOICE in
The NEW LIFE that is to COME


In the names of our JESUS=and his most GLORIOUS & HEAVENLY FATHER
