“All things New”

A tree sheds its leaves each fall,
Whether she’s large or small,
Making room for its yearly growth,
While daily fertilizing the earth.

The old must be pushed out and let go,
If the new is to make its show.
Like a disciple who’s growing in grace,
Dying daily to seek His face.

Day by day the old must pass away,
Only new life can come this way.
A seed must die to release its power,
Similar to a disciple, every hour.
Nick Holden
2 Cor. 5:14-21
Look unto Jesus day by day and may:
"The Lord bless thee, and keep thee:

The Lord make His face shine upon thee, and be gracious unto thee:

The Lord lift up His countenance upon thee, and give thee peace."

Numbers 6:24-26
