A Word for Women - The Women Series

Thank you for reading and participating in this series on women in scripture. It is an honor for me to share the message of a dear friend who lead our women's Bible study this summer. She speaks a word here for all women about being called to go deeper with God. Thank you for joining us and God bless you in the journey!

The Women Series: A Word for Women

Put Out Into Deeper Waters

Guest post by, Linda Osborne

Do you know the story of the new wine and new wineskins? It's found in Mark2:21-22 (NASB), as Jesus says,

"No one sews a patch of unshrunk cloth on an old garment; otherwise the patch pulls away from it ... and a worse tear results. No one puts new wine into old wineskins; otherwise the wine will burst the skins, and the wine is lost and the skins as well; but one puts new wine into fresh wineskins.”

I believe there is new wine being poured out upon us by the Holy Spirit in this day. Are we trying to put the new wine, this new work of the Holy Spirit, into our old, familiar wineskins?
