SCRIPTURE:

Isaiah 43:19 (Berean Standard Bible)

Behold, I am about to do something new; even now it is coming. Do you not see it? Indeed, I will make a way in the wilderness and streams in the desert.

REFLECTION QUESTIONS:

Here are some questions for you to reflect on, in a journal or with a friend.

1. How does Isaiah 43:19 speak to your current journey and What “new thing” might God be doing in your life?

2. What does it mean to trust God’s timing when the “new thing” isn’t fully visible yet?

3. How might you create space—emotionally, spiritually, or physically—for God’s streams to flow in your life?
