Feel free to share the link to this post on your social platforms. #GoodNewsIsForSharing On Sunday, we focused on: Isaiah 43:18-19 NLT “But forget all that—      it is nothing compared to what I am going to do. For I am about to do something new.      See, I have already begun! Do you not see it? I will make a pathway through the wilderness.      I will create rivers in the dry wasteland. Wow, right?  #NewThing To provide a little context for these verses, in verses 14-17, God is highlighting the amazing things He has done, and then in verses 18 and 19, He's saying yes, those are all great things, but wh
