New Thing

Sometimes God brings along people who are really going to get on your wick. I don’t know why and I really wish he wouldn’t, I would really like it if everyone God brought into my life was instantly likeable. But Lets be honest, if that was the case then life would be boring.

When someone new enters your life it can be difficult. I usually find that i am challenged, challenged because they don’t like the same things as me, challenged because they are better than me at stuff, challenged because they do things different to me, challenged because they want me to do things differently, challenged because I have to explain stuff to them, challenged because I have to change to accommodate them.

Every-time someone new enters my life I have learned something new, I wouldn’t be the person I am today if it wasn’t for new people entering my life, I wouldn’t know the things I now know if it wasn’t for new people in my life, If it wasn’t for new people in my life I wouldn’t be married to a great woman with 2 great kids,If it wasn’t for a new person in my life I wouldn’t know Jesus, I wouldn’t have a relationship with the great I AM.

So the next time someone new enters the room, take a moment to get to know them, If they annoy you learn to accommodate them, – the chances are they are doing the same thing!!
The next time someone new enters your life they could be a part of your lifestory!

Isaiah 43:19

New International Version (NIV)

19 See, I am doing a new thing!
Now it springs up; do you not perceive it?
I am making a way in the wilderness
and streams in the wasteland.

2 Corinthians 5:17

New International Version (NIV)

17 Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come:[a] The old has gone, the new is here!
