"A New Birth"

For everyone expecting a blog dedicated to our first grandchild, Ella Rae, here ya go! C'mon! The very cool thing about the timing of the birth of "the princess", is that something new has been birthed at Calvary Church as well. In the same week we dedicated our newly renovated "theanctuary" our granddaughter was born. During my six hour trek, one way, to Raleigh, NC, I had some time to meditate on the idea of, "a new birth". A scripture came to mind, John 3:6, "humans can produce only human life, but the Holy Spirit gives birth to spiritual life." As I contemplated this I realized anew that every single natural and spiritual birth is brand new. There are no exact duplicates! Many new births may look alike but none have the same DNA match! Just as there will only be one Ella Rae, the new thing God is doing at Calvary Church is "like" many other things He has done, but it is actually brand new! I got very excited when I thought this through. What God is doing in these moments has never been done before! It may look the same and seem the same, but our Heavenly Father duplicates nothing. My question to you is; "what new thing is God doing in you?" He desires to give you new dreams and visions, He wants to "birth" a brand new thing in your heart and life! God never, ever duplicates or replicates! He makes all things brand new! Oh by the way, Ella is absolutely gorgeous!
