New Again

Butterflies have long been symbols of rebirth and renewal -- their lives include metamorphosis changing from one form to another, sometimes appearing more dead than alive only to reveal after the final cocoon stage the magnificent creature that the Father designed. When we look at a butterfly, we can see the immense creativity that His hands possess.

Recently, I heard a song that brings into very sharp focus the One who is the ultimate model of renewal. The Lamb that was slain and sits upon the throne of heaven. It's part of an MP3 Christmas album by Sara Evans and is a duet with Brad Paisley. In this marvelous song, there is an amazing dialog between Jesus and Mary.

Always remember, because He became "new again" on Easter Sunday, His promise that He will give eternal life to all those who trust Him is something that we can believe and build our lives upon. We can become "new again" too.

Listen to the song and let His love speak to you

Keep the faith.
