HE makes all things new

My oldest son purchased the taj mahal of dog kennels. It is extremely nice and we installed it in the backyard in the middle of two nice bushes.

Over time the grass started to grow and I kept dropping subtle hints to both of my boys that it would be much easier to keep the kennel clean daily than to let the grass grow and get out of hand. I held out hope that the day would come when it would get so bad that they would want to clean it back up.


Well my oldest picked today. The first day of the brand new school year for the task. It was a loooooong day. It was a good day but a loooooong day. I was exhausted before I made it home.

We both rolled up our sleeves and got after it. There was grass to cut, stones to wash, and holes to fill with dirt. Several hours into the job things were starting to look good. I could tell when he asked for help that he was ready for the job but wasn't sure where to even start. That's when it hit me like a ton of bricks while I was weed eating a wet, grassy, muddy pen. That's what fathers do. That's what my Heavenly Father’s does for me. I let things go and it seems like at times they snowball out of hand and I want to get things under control but don't really know how BUT He’s right there waiting for me to call on Him and HE make all things new!

There's no overgrown mess that He can't clean. He’s right there waiting we just have to ask! We can not only come to Him we can come BOLDLY to Him!

That's it. Keep the faith. Keep pushing forward.

HE makes all things new! (Rev. 21:5)
