wine-skin

The wineskin holds the wine.  The problem is that sometimes we place more value on the wineskin than the wine.  Also, you can't put new wine into an old wineskin or it will burst.  Many times as leaders we won't change our structure or the "how's" of ministry and therefore are unable to hold any new wine.  If God were to pour out "new wine" into our "old wineskins," it would burst and be unable to hold it.  God will not pour out His wine onto the ground.  We have a choice as both leaders and as individuals when it comes to God's "new wine."  If we don't continue to grow, change and prepare, we will never be entrusted with "new wine."  What are you preparing?
