We don't think of ourselves as living or having lived in either a desert or a wasteland, but you could be there now. The desert is a time and a place where it's easy to lose your way and where it's easy to lose sight of the things you are supposed to be focusing on. Sound familiar? The wasteland is a time and place that drags you down, burdens you, causes you to lose heart, and wearies you to the core. Have you ever been there?
To any who are wandering through the desert, do not lose heart. Help is on the way! To any who are thirsty and worn down in the wasteland, do not lose hope! Help is on the way. His name is Jesus and He promised us that while we may go through desert and wasteland times, we were not to give up because He came to overcome those places and to take us to new heights! He says, "See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it?" (Isaiah 43:19). God wants to open your eyes to the new things He has in store for you. He's already begun to prepare you. Now He's calling on you to open your eyes to them. Look for them, see them, live them.
