It's been far too long...

One of my passions is writing. I write a lot in my journal (read man diary) but it's been quite some time since I've put any thoughts into the interwebs.

The thought that has been driving me lately comes from Revelation 21.5. The verse reads "And he who was sitting on the throne said, 'Behold, I am making all things new.' And he said, 'Write this down, for these words are trustworthy and true.'" I don't really want to get into a massive eschatological discussion, I'll just say that I believe Christ makes things new now, and some day the whole earth will rest in this newness.

This is such a beautiful thought! And what is even more amazing is to see this come true. I see this in my own life as I die to myself daily, but I see it in people around me constantly. I am marrying a woman in a few months that the Holy Spirit has used to remind me of this daily. She loves Jesus so much that it intimidates me but makes me press into Him all the more. The Holy Spirit has made so many things new in her life that, quite honestly makes me jealous of her. I would love to tell you her story, but that is best left for her to do. Someone else prompt her to write it down. She won't listen to me.
