A whole new world!

No doubt, the coming of the New Year will still see a great deal of the same old stuff. War and human selfishness will still be with us this next year. Happily, Jesus did not say I will make all things new. He said, I am making all things new. Everyone who trusts in Him helps to usher in this newness, and we do so every time we say, “No” to selfishness and yes to loving others.

“And he who was seated on the throne said, “Behold, I am making all things new.” Rev.21 Conversations Within” ts 12/24/2016

"Every child is an artist. The problem is how to remain an artist once we grow up." Pablo Picasso

Because we were made in the Image, we were designed to live creative lives. Create! Sculpt something of beauty with the life God has given. Paint with compassion, sing with words of comfort. Be your own work of art. Follow in the steps of your Father and overflow with creative goodness. Make the world new with the brushstrokes of creative love.

“It is about your outlook towards life. You can either regret or rejoice.” Ralph Waldo Emerson

Our inner eye will determine our outlook on life. Are my eyes clear or cloudy? Am I inclined to see beauty or ugliness? Do I look with hope for the best, or with doubt, imagine the worst? Let the light of love fill us with a fresh vision of the goodness that surrounds us. Greet the morning with grateful praise and gaze at God’s goodness throughout the day. Retire each evening recounting every blessing and resting in hope of a brighter and better day tomorrow.  

“The eye is the lamp of the body. So, if your eye is healthy, your whole body will be full of light.” Jesus Conversations Within” ts 12/22/2016
