Three new jobs in the past two years. A Bible degree. A boyfriend-turned fiance in seven month's time. A city that's a challenge in the winter and bliss in the summer. A new church. A sister's company. New neighborhoods and places to call home. New friendships, new losses, and new life.
Who knew?
Who knew it would all be here, greeting me in all its fullness and mess?
But of course.
You knew.
You always knew.
It is You who lives in our gladness, You who knows our sorrows unlike any other.
It is You who who is always forming, always making, always restoring.
It is You who created us, and who invites us into new life.
So we praise You- the one who cannot be surprised.
We praise Christ in all of his nearness, in all His God-made-flesh-ness.
He is here, He is there, and He knows.
But of course.
