A MESSAGE FROM PASTOR RICHARD
"I am about to do a new thing;
now it springs forth; do you not perceive it?
I will make a way in the wilderness
and rivers in the desert."
”- Isaiah 43:19
Before I summited Pyramid Peak last week, I captured the picture above near the summit. At almost 14,000 feet, it’s almost all rock. Very little in the way of plant life grows. What does grow is tiny. I was not expecting to see any more wildflowers as I climbed up a ledge, getting closer to the top. When I looked to the left, I saw the wildflowers pictured.
I was reminded of the scripture above which tells us that "God makes a way in the wilderness and rivers in the desert.”
What God is doing is not always apparent. God’s presence may seem elusive at times. And then, out of nowhere, something beautiful appears that reminds us that God is with us. Things are not as dry as they seem.
“God makes a way in the wilderness and rivers in the desert.”
Let us remember as we go about our days and weeks that God is always with us and to be on the lookout for little signs of God’s presence. It may be the wildflowers that appear out of nowhere. Or it could be something else. Each of these “little things” remind us, not only that God is with us, but God is always doing a new thing. Can we not perceive it?
May the love of God be with you,
Pastor Richard
