In South Africa it is springtime - it is the time of new beginnings. As a farmer, I can go and look at the trees and they are pushing out brand new leaves... There is a time of newness. In Matthew 7:7 the Lord says: “Seek and you will find.” What are you looking for today? My dear friend, we need to look up and see that our Redeemer is coming very soon. It is a wonderful day and we need to look at it through the eyes of God. Do you remember that beautiful old song that was sung by Louis Armstrong? It was called, “What a wonderful world.” I see trees of green Red roses too I see them bloom For you and me And I think to myself What a wonderful world I see skies of blue And clouds of white The bright blessed day The dark sacred night And I think to myself What a wonderful world The colours of the rainbow So pretty in the sky Are also on the faces Of people going by I see friends shaking hands Saying, "How do you do?" They're really saying "I love you" I hear babies cry I watch them grow They'll learn much more Than I'll never know And I think to myself What a wonderful world Yes, I think to myself… What a wonderful world. Go out today and look at the wonderful world that the Lord has created for you and me. Don’t look through the eyes of negativity, don’t allow yourself to be tied into negative talking and thoughts but look up and see. What a wonderful day, who knows... Maybe the Lord Jesus Christ Himself will return today. I can’t wait to see what God has got in store for me today. You know, He gave me His only begotten Son and said, “Angus, if you believe in Him, you will never die - You will have eternal life!” Go out today and bless somebody. Maybe take them a bunch of flowers and tell them, “It is springtime, a new beginning!” God bless you! |
