I saw a lot of evidence of the wind having passed through parts of three states while driving this morning. It's amazing how something so invisible can leave evidence of itself that is so visible. This wind even had a name - "Ike" - or at least what was left of that hurricane.
When Jesus explained being "born again" to Nicodemus in John, chapter 3, he made reference to the wind. When the "wind" of God, God's Spirit, enters your life, everything changes. It stirs things up. It destroys the way things were and makes things new - like being "born again." Look at a newborn child. It's beautiful and messy at the same time. But there is evidence of the promise of our world's future wrapped up in that one little life.
The Jesus and Nicodemus dialogue? Read the whole thing in John 3. It's a great discussion. Don't stop at verse 16. The answer is blowing in the wind.
