wine and the wineskins

Our graduation was last night. 

A man gave a word about Matthew 9, about wine and the wineskins.

That new wine must be poured into new wineskins.

We must be transformed that the He can fill us.

If not, we will break, we will not be able to do our job, what we were intended for. 

The problem is not the wine, it is never the fault of the wine, but instead it all depends on the condition of the wineskin.

I do not know if I mentioned, but when I went to the very first service when I arrived in January to Pichilemu, Chile, the pastor spoke on Acts 2. (click me and lets go back eight months)

God is a God of confirmation. 

Ask me about what my God did the next time you see me, I would love to grab coffee and talk.

These 5 months made me fall even more in love with Him. 

My God can do anything. 

My God is always faithful.

My God is a God of wonders.

And all I want in this life is to be filled with His sweet wine.

 

“Neither do people pour new wine into old wineskins. If they do, the skins will burst; the wine will run out and the wineskins will be ruined. No, they pour new wine into new wineskins, and both are preserved.”

—matthew 9:17

a woman from one of the churches gave me these boots as a gift. i’ve never seen boots like these in my life. i’ll leave it at that.

“do you know how to speak English?”

Jenny, I have been drinking your coffee and thinking of you. Colombian coffee is the best. And someday I wan´t to drink it IN Colombia with you. I miss you so much. I miss your stories, your wisdom, and your calming presence. I hope God is moving in your life right now and can´t wait to hear stories when we both get back to Pichilemu. Stay strong woman.

He estado Tomando tu cafe y pensando en ti. Cafe Colombiano es lo mejor. Y algun dia quiero tomarlo EN Colombia contigo. TE EXTRAÑO MUCHO. Extraño tus historias, tu sabiduria, y tu presencia calmada. Espero que Dios se este moviendo en tu vida en este momento y no puedo esperar escuchar tus historias cuando regresemos a Pichilemu. Mantente Firme Mujer!
