New wine is poured into fresh wineskins

GospelMk 2:18-22

The disciples of John and of the Pharisees were accustomed to fast.People came to Jesus and objected,“Why do the disciples of John and the disciples of the Pharisees fast,but your disciples do not fast?”Jesus answered them,“Can the wedding guests fast while the bridegroom is with them?As long as they have the bridegroom with them they cannot fast.But the days will come when the bridegroom is taken away from them,and then they will fast on that day.No one sews a piece of unshrunken cloth on an old cloak.If he does, its fullness pulls away,the new from the old, and the tear gets worse.Likewise, no one pours new wine into old wineskins.Otherwise, the wine will burst the skins,and both the wine and the skins are ruined.Rather, new wine is poured into fresh wineskins.”

Let holy spirit come into our heart before we read today's bible.

Be honestly with you, I haven't do my daily bible reading almost for 2 years. I feel very Lucky that I have a moment to have my daily prayer back.

We don't like to change our life. We always used to what we have in our daily life. Last week, I got laid off. When I got a phone call from HR, I knew something will happen.

When they told me, unfortunately we have to let you go. The company is not doing well. However, there is nothing wrong with you personally. I didn't feel sad or angry. Actually I was a little bit happy. They finally made the call and I was ready. You must curious why I have that feeling right? there are lots of reason why I feel happy. One of the biggest reason is I think God has something for me to do. and I truly believe it.

I wasn't happy at my previous company. Back to today's Gospel, I think the point is we should be ready for the changes.

When ppl asked Jesus, why your ppl are not fasting? Jesus told them - who is doing fasting when they are with bride and groom? Also Jesus explain how we should pour the new wine into new wineskin otherwise the new wine will ruin the old wineskin. I think I have a whole bottle of new wine and I will have my new wineskin waiting for me. Even though I don't know where I am going. I know God already has his plan for me thousand years ago.
