Matthew 9: 14 - 17

14

Then the disciples of John came to him, saying, "Why do we and the Pharisees fast, but your disciples do not fast?"

15

And Jesus said to them, "Can the wedding guests mourn as long as the bridegroom is with them? The days will come, when the bridegroom is taken away from them, and then they will fast.

16

And no one puts a piece of unshrunk cloth on an old garment, for the patch tears away from the garment, and a worse tear is made.

17

Neither is new wine put into old wineskins; if it is, the skins burst, and the wine is spilled, and the skins are destroyed; but new wine is put into fresh wineskins, and so both are preserved."

The message

We are very much used with the traditions and behaviors that any change in this system looks very much strange to us.

Jesus is reminding us not mingle the new things with the old. Newness demands a new out look and new perspective. All those who have adapted to the new means of life, adopting themselves with the new situations have lived their life meaningfully.

Are we still mixing up things, or open to new horizons of life?
