As a young married man, I tried to impress my new bride with my “do it yourself” skills. I thought putting curtain rails in our bedroom would not be a difficult task. I went to the store and bought an electric drill. I enjoyed using it, but unfortunately, the more I used it, the bigger the holes I made! Finally, I had to admit defeat and confess I had made a complete mess of what should have been a relatively easy task. I had to begin again. The huge holes I had made had to be patched up, and a fresh approach was needed. This time I did it under the supervision of Gudny, who is much more practical than I am!
Isn’t it the case in life that we sometimes have to admit that we have messed something up and have to begin again? This recent series on “Jesus’ Teaching on Marriage and Gender” has been difficult to preach and difficult for many of you to hear. There is no doubt that before a holy God, all of us have messed up. What is required? A fresh start. A new beginning! And this is what is offered in the glorious Gospel of the grace of God. In Christ, the old has gone and the new has come (2 Corinthians 5:17).
This Sunday, I conclude this present series with “Jesus and a Fresh Start.” Invite others to hear this important message which applies to all of us.
