He Never Left the Building!

For a world hit by wave after wave of destruction, war and catastrophes, Good news comes! God news! God comes in the outpouring of his spirit, bringing fresh news: the young and old alike will have inspired dreams and visions! As we read the words of the prophet, we get a fresh perspective on our world today, and every day. Today’s news (just like the news a few millennia ago!) seems to be summed up by something like: ‘Where’s God?” “God must be absent!” “I can’t wait till God comes back!” But, truth is, he never left! He, Emmanuel, is here with us, and, he is not through giving us a glimpse of what good things he has in store for us!

The short little book of the Old Testament prophet, Joel, is the inspiration for this blog
