Redos

Thankfully, for our sake, God is in the business of redos! There are so many people in the Bible that God gave an opportunity for a 'redo'. I have been reading in the books of Exodus and Acts and want to give you a taste of just a few redos mentioned...Aaron, Moses and Paul. Aaron was to be Moses' spokesperson and help lead the Israelites out of Egypt; he accomplished those tasks, but then led the Israelites to worship a golden calf...an idol. Later, God allowed a 'redo' and anointed as well as consecrated Aaron as a priest to serve Him! Moses became angry with the Israelites and threw the tablets with the ten commandments written on them on the ground and they broke. God gave Moses a 'redo' and he spent 40 days rewriting the tablets. As he came down from Mt. Sinai, his face was radiant because he had been with the Lord! Paul had persecuted followers of the Way, and yet, God appeared to him on the road to Damascus, blinded him, and then gave him spiritual sight. He then healed his physical sight and used him in an amazing way to bring many to faith in Christ and strengthen them in their walk with the Savior! Don't EVER give up on yourself, or God, and what He can do with a life surrendered to Him. His mercies are new every morning and GREAT IS HIS FAITHFULNESS! God is in the business of redos each and every day! Praise His Name!
