Post 4: Everything is Made New!

2 Corinthians 5:17
"Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has gone, the new has come!"

In the latter half of 2009, my whole life pretty much changed forever. I graduated high school, the place where I began the journey of fulfilling what I want to be for the rest of my life. I left my hometown, where I lived for 15 of my then 17 years, for a city 1/30th the size of it. I found a new church family and new little brothers and sisters in the faith. I got a job working at McDonalds where everyone seems to agree that I'm a pretty darn good worker - rather quiet, but nevertheless amiable. Heck, I even got Internet.

That is why I'm calling the theme for 2010 Everything is Made New. My life is vastly different from how it was New Years 2009. I have changed and matured so much since then. This year will largely be about growing into my new life, including when I begin college in the fall.
