“Behold, I am doing a new thing;
now it springs forth, do you not perceive it?
I will make a way in the wilderness
and rivers in the desert.”-Isaiah 43:19

“Behold, I make all things new.” Rev 21:5

As we look forward to ushering in the New Year, I offer you this poetic play on this text that has been inhabiting my soul lately.

Thank you for partnering with me in the ministry of sacred healing creativity that God has called us into.

May significant peace and grace be present to you in these next days, weeks and year.

Expectantly,

Mylinda

BEhold I make all things new.

                                            Hold these things in your heart

                                                   Hold onto hope

                           Make up

                                   Make over

                                            Make all things new

All in

      All out

            All or nothing

                  All is everything

                       All is everyone

                            All  is all you are

Things can be: people, places or objects

character, consequences, or creations

gifts or genius given

handiwork, a happening or hope

specialties, substances, or stories

made of matter and meaning

What’s new?

New fangled, brand new, as good as new, better than new, a whole new ball game,

                        New clothes, new shoes, a new deal, the new kid on the block, a new day,

Out with the old and in with the new, a new wrinkle, a brave new world, a new paradigm, a new start.

The New Year is here to turn over a new leaf, to get a new lease on life, to find new hope.

Who knew?

BEHOLD,

 I MAKE ALL THINGS NEW!
