"What else is new?"
To answer the question: nothing. There is nothing new under the sun. We would like to think we are so smart and so cool that we are the first, the original and the best. Really all that we are doing isn't new. It may be a spin off of something that was already there but it certainly isn't new.
Take a moment and think about the evolution of social media. Everyone was all excited about MySpace for the longest time. But I remember that AOL had pretty much the same thing in a different platform years before. But it was 'new'. Then Facebook and Twitter and Foursquare, Vine and Instagram and now Periscope. New? It is the same thing only a different emphasis. Boil it all down and it becomes a way of sharing snippets of your life with others.
When we see this playing out it directs us to love and honor the one who created it all. Rather than getting caught up in the world's latest and greatest let's go the The Great One who alone is worthy of being in awe over. God is the only one who has had an original thought. And, by the way, He is the best!
How do you feel about all the 'new' stuff that is out there? What moves you to wonder and awe when you think about God?
