Perhaps you have seen the earth dry and dusty, with her fields
brown and her streams low. That night a storm-cloud walked
across the face of the sky, and in torrents broke over all
the land. The next morning when you went forth there were the
same fields and streams, but it was not the same earth, for a
new earth greeted you; and so it is when the life, light and
energy of the Holy Spirit is let into a man’s life; he is still
the same creature, formed in the likeness of his Maker, but
he is not the same. He is a new man; he has been born again.
