The 40 day photo challenge: Day 7

Photo 7:
A New Thing
"Forget the former things; do not dwell on the past.
See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up;
do you not perceive it?
I am making a way in the desert
and streams in the wasteland...." Isaiah 43

I took this today up by the baseball fields behind the Luce at Asbury. The old building is rotted and torn apart. The grass around it is dry, the fields look like a wasteland. I walked out there and found myself mumbling "wow, theres no life out here." Instantly afterwards I saw a small butterfly on a flowering plant, it forced me to look closer. He's causing life to spring up in the wilderness, he's making a way when there is none. The mountains melt like wax before him. Watch out Wilmore, Revival is coming.

I love this. For some reason I have always liked old buildings with no more life. It makes you wonder what was once there. We had old cars and buildings in the field behind my house growing up and I was always drawn to them.
