Narito, ako'y gagawa ng isang bagong bagay;
ngayon iyon ay lalabas; hindi ba ninyo malalaman iyon?
Gagawa ako ng daan sa ilang,
at ng mga ilog sa disyerto.

A NEW THING

A blessed New Year to All!

We do progress because of the promises of God, don’t we? God’s promises are our hope igniters. We left 2021 as one coming out through the door, stepping into the open space unknown – 2022. In our hands is the open book to guide us like a compass in order for us not to wander at the maze of life.

There is a need of leaving. Being stuck in the past can keep us from anticipating the new thing God wants us to experience. If Israel stayed stuck in the familiar and comfort zone, they would never look for the new thing of release from exile. Babylon should be their home in the next 70 years. As God said through Jeremiah, ““Thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel, to all the exiles whom I have sent into exile from Jerusalem to Babylon: 5 Build houses and live in them; plant gardens and eat their produce. 6 Take wives and have sons and daughters; take wives for your sons, and give your daughters in marriage, that they may bear sons and daughters; multiply there, and do not decrease. 7 But seek the welfare of the city where I have sent you into exile, and pray to the Lord on its behalf, for in its welfare you will find your welfare.”[Jer 29:4-7] It would be very hard to leave when things are doing fine at Babylon. Then, they have to start a new start in the Promise Land.

It requires faith to actualize God’s promise. God is making a way in the wilderness and streams in the wasteland. However, it may not be perceivable at the beginning. God had divided the Red Sea so that the Jews walked in a dry ground. But, what if the water would only split when the feet are wet as Jordan split when the feet of the priests carrying the ark, touched the water.

Let’s remember this New Year 2022 that the just always walks by faith and not by sight.
